Tanja Lazetic - Whore, International Centre of Graphic Arts (MGLC), 2010, Ljubljana
In 1977, Sanja Ivekovic made a book the Tragedy of a Venus, juxtaposing in it photographs of Marilyn Monroe with her own photos. I have photographed her book, printed it out, and stamped each page with the word whore. I put a photo of myself, also stamped with whore, on the cover. Sanja’s work was about the relationship between fame and everyday life. Today, with reality shows, anyone can have their five minutes of fame. Everyday life and fame are intertwined, with money in between.(Tanja Lazetic)
