The Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb invites you to the opening of the exhibition By the Means at Hand by Vlatka Horvat, which will be held on Tuesday, March 24 at 6 PM at the MSU. The exhibition offers insight into the project which Horvat created for the Croatian Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale, and which she donated to the Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb after the Biennale closed. For the project, Horvat invited some 200 international artists – friends and friends of friends, all living “as foreigners” in different countries around the world – to make and send to her small-scale artworks which in some way reflected on their experience of migration, of being a foreigner, of living in diaspora. For every work she received in Venice, Horvat sent to each artist a collage from the series she was making while living in the pavilion for the duration of the Biennale. All the artworks traveled to Venice and back via informal transport networks; in the bags and suitcases of friends, acquaintances, and sometimes strangers enlisted as couriers for the project.
