Maja Ćirić Reviews Nada Prlja's 'Parole, Parole' Installation at North Macedonia Pavilion

opinion-review · 2026-04-19

Maja Ćirić reviewed Nada Prlja's installation 'Parole, Parole (As a Counter-Hegemonic Gesture): Red Discussion No. 2' for the Pavilion of the Republic of North Macedonia. The work was presented as part of Prlja's 'Subversion to Red' series. Ćirić's critique, published on ARTMargins Online, examined how the installation engages with counter-hegemonic discourse through artistic practice. The review referenced the 1972 Italian duet 'Parole, Parole' by Mina and Alberto Lupo, which explores themes of hollow language and empty rhetoric. Ćirić noted the scarcity of arts and humanities professionals capable of critically reflecting on planetary conditions, with even fewer demonstrating communal interest in connecting artistic legacy to broader concerns. The review appeared in ARTMargins Online's exhibition reviews section under their art events archives.
