“During three days eight of us networkers have been discussing our position in the circumstances where the essence of the art we are practicing – communication, is endangered by United Nations’ sanctions. During the congress we did numerous art performances in the street, lectures, exhibitions aimed against war, nationalism and isolation of our country.” Andrej Tišma
