About The Artwork

This "Blockheads" character depicts a poor boy who discovers a small painting by NDRJ (my old graffiti alter ego) while digging through the trash bin. He is wondering if it is worth anything and worth saving. This is what goes through the head of the character, so in this moment he becomes the "Little Critic", a symbolic representation of any art critic’s deliberation on whether a work of art should be kept or disposed off. It is also a critique on the art world and the attitude of the audience towards the unknown and the unfamiliar. I chose the simple block of wood in this exhibition as a vessel that I could transform through color and line into a character that tells a story of an aspect of our society and the attitudes toward art/artists.

Multi-media artist, working both in traditional and contemporary fine art forms: printmaking, drawing, painting, sculpture, design, photography, video, animation, net & interactive art, graffiti art, and electronic music. Although first and foremost he considers himself a graphic artist, Andrej Marjanovic works a lot in both multimedia and in many classic arts techniques (painting, sculpture, and drawing). But it is less known that he was also a graffiti artist during the emerging Skopje graffiti culture of the 1990s, working under many pseudonyms (НДРЈ/NDRJ, ЧКЉ Кру/ CHKLJ Crew, Право гето/Real ghetto). Since about the same time, he was part of the birth of the Macedonian underground electronic music scene under various pseudonyms (NDRJ, Partybreaking Inc., Кисела куќа/Acid House), using sampling as his main constructive technique. From 2000 onwards, he works professionally in branding, graphic design, web design, photography, video production, audio production, and animation. With regard to technique, Andrej Marjanovic is always interested in experimentation, innovation, and intermediality. In his interartistic and intermedia fine art explorations, he is often inspired by music, comic books, street art, computer art, video art, video games, and film. Whatever the technique, medium, or application, his art stylistically gravitates toward the minimalist, symbolic, and abstract, always grounded on deeply deliberated concepts, a critical approach, autoreferentiality, and humor. He was born and raised in Skopje, but from 2014 he lives in the Prespa area.
