After Skopje, Belgrade, Beijing, Vinica and Bitola, her \u201cNew Objects of Desire\u201d are envisioning another exciting encounter with the audience. \u201cA visual art-erudite, as Gordana Vrencoska is, cannot remain indifferent towards a quasi appreciation of traditions. She reacts, then ascertains and \u2018intervenes\u2019 with her own vocabulary upon the current desecration of the own identity\u201d &#8211; Ana Frangovska, the project curator wrote in her text. \u201cVrencoska, as expected, did not attempt to impose some dominant perceptions on folklore stereotypes, but to extract the most refined ingredients and place them in our modernity. Without pathos, she has created works for eternity\u201d \u2013 says art critique Katerina Bogoeva. According to Elizabeta Kanceska \u2013 Milevska, Minister of Culture, R. of Macedonia, \u201cVrencoska\u2019s photographs, objects, paintings and graphic prints are a testimony of the cosmopolitan dimension of our Macedonian spiritual values\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What we should expect is a revelation of mystery and metaphysical spirit that ordinary objects silently bring to our everyday lives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The project is supported by the Macedonian Ministry of Culture.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">549 West 52nd Street, 8th Floor (Between 10th and 11th Avenue).\u00a0NEW YORK NY 10019<br \/>\nOpen Tuesday\u2013Friday 12pm &#8211; 6pm, Saturday, 1PM \u2013 5PM<br \/>\nPhone: 212.581.1966 | E-mail: media.lab@gallerymc.org<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">GORDANA VRENCOSKA<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Interdiciplinary Artist, Designer and Educator.
