The exhibition presents two art projects included in the first issue of the contemporary art magazine ETC. In the first issue, we present artistic practices that focus on the local environment. Janja Kosi's project Serving Suggestion addresses the notions of space, architecture, homeliness, emptiness and consumption. She analyses these through the local manifestations of the global furniture giant Ikea. Szabelski presents AMZN, a multi-layered multimedia project based on a series of photographs of Amazon warehouses. They are accompanied by the story of workers' difficulties collected in union leaflets, stories of solidarity in an era of increasing automation, and insights into the consumer experience.
Razstava predstavlja dva umetniška projekta, vključena v prvo številko revije za sodobno umetnost ETC. V tej predstavljamo umetniške prakse, ki se posvečajo lokalnemu okolju. Janja Kosi v projektu Predlog serviranja naslavlja pojme prostora, arhitekture, domačnosti, izpraznjenosti in potrošnje. Te analizira skozi lokalno pojavnost globalnega pohištvenega giganta Ikea. Szabelski predstavlja večplastni multimedijski projekt AMZN, ki temelji na seriji fotografij Amazonovih skladišč. Spremljajo jih zgodba o težavah delavcev, predstavljena v letakih sindikata, zgodbe solidarnosti v dobi vse večje avtomatizacije in uvid v potrošniško izkušnjo.
