The title of the exhibition invokes a foreign US English idiom, that stems from baseball and means suddenly; from an unexpected source or direction. In the same manner, the curatorial concept for this Biennial seeks to evoke this element of surprise but also to allude to political and ideological spheres. Artists represented are guided to mimic the strategy of non-alignment, where, starting from strongest individuality, a possibility of coexistence is established. Artists co-present works in all media in powerful dialogue with performance art.

MILJENKA ŠEPIĆ - Earth, Fire, Water, Air 23. 4. – 18. 5. 2009. Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Dolac 1/II, RijekaOpening: thursday, April 23rd 2009. at 19.00 Curator: Milica Đilas
Earth, Fire, Water, and Air is the title of the new, integrated cycle of works by Miljenka Sepic. The cycle is articulated into four clearly delineated parts, each corresponding to one element. Each element, following the traditional Eastern learning, is connected by the author with energy, state, or action. Although elements, parts of a cycle, make separate entities, different visually and in technical execution, only when connected with the others they acquire their full harmony and meaning.
She forms elements according to a program set in advance, by the selection of colours, their relations and symbolic meanings, archetypal forms, and adequate formats of drawing or painting grounds for corresponding techniques and materials, as well as controlled manual procedures in the execution of a particular work.
