Human living is preoccupied with permanent,unavoidable or unimportant decisions, definitions  and classifications. The decision always needs idea purity preventing contradiction, coincidence or discontinuity. Making a decision means  to say “yes” or “no” with no considering all the consequences which often disable us to identify ourselves later when we make a decision. The principle of polar circle i.e. harmonic team of extremities can be achieved by synthesis which change able presence, equal floating between two poles . That particular “floating” between two poles enables removing the boundaries between high and low forms of art which prevents binary opposition of what is good and not good, nice and not nice, what is in order and disorder, white and not white, rational and irrational so irony, parody and play can be emphasized as a result of that apparent unstability, provisionality. Instead of beginning and end we get multiciplity of things which change their character by their structure changing so instead of appearing binary oppositions and dichotomies, interpreting of reality as dynamic, heterogenous but not dichotomous one can be seen.

          The idea of heterogeneity and dichotomy can be even remarked in paganism age and in both Indian and western philosophy. In Paganism,gods and nature have been identified as the unique wholeness during which difference of elements has been lost. Such a “thing” possessing the attribute-wholeness,indivisibility resulting in dividing the original wholeness in two:existing – nonexisting, mortality-immortality,day-night, does exist in Indian philosophy as well, in which the things such as, for instance, breathing  and not breathing at the same time, do exist; or according to Nietzsche the principles of multiplicity and discontinuity that can be achieved by joining affirmation and negation of “yes” and “no” be remarked.

         As eternal prisoners of the casual world where law of oppositions, death vision and fear from death are in control,we humans could be transformed only if we were transferred from the world discontinuity into world which is negation of binary opposition and division world, free from loneliness,alienation and death fear, to be integrated in the general life continuity not having life in death opposition but, on the contrary, both representing one wholeness..

       All the works included in this Symposium/Exhibition contain implication of two extreme things at the same time becoming more significant and comprising many aspects of everyday living and not neglecting it but, on the contrary, emphasizing of the place where they have been created.

       Their ephemerality was in accordance with illusion of existing and  at the same time non-existing audience. Preoccupation with the very creation, the course of the work but not with the final goal, created such a kind of atmosphere where the real character of the works was clearly defined. The artists’ intention to create more simple works that will be revealed totally has been successful. Living and working at particular place and in particular time they have experienced them as a sublimation way of their own previous and present ideas. The venue was experienced as a homeland of the former ancient venue, an opposition place of ancient and modern, absurd and search of sense (no sense), but also a street space for (non) communication even manipulating with group of people incidently chosen. Provoking the own visual consciousness can lead to engaged attack on object and the engaged questions involving the own history and philosophy into a new enviroment introduce another form of the idea intending to direct the incident passers deliberately to extremely unexpected surroundings transformed in temporary place of exchange. The decision opposing law shows and proves one thing-that boundaries only exist in our heads and in order to release from them we need to release the most liberate one-the artist, and to achieve that we need to be free from life and death. Boundaries existing which is obvious especially in sexuality causes unexpected reactions while despair in cases of political provocation.

            Nevertheless, neither any philosophical consideration and analysis nor intellectual clearness are necessary but only original ideas in order to feel that which really has a meaning of multiciplity. Whenever it is created it will be existing and it has been created and lived within the works of this mutual project.
