NSK / From Kapital to Capital

NSK from Kapital to Capital: Neue Slowenische Kunst – The Event of the Final Decade of Yugoslavia

Following the eponymous exhibition, an extensive book about NSK was published, which features the work of the Neue Slowenische Kunst (NSK) art collective throughout the decade of the 1980s. Beginning with the early work of Laibach and the founding of NSK, the book focuses on telling the story of NSK, which adopted the symbols, codes and motifs pertaining to contradictory ideologies and art traditions. Combining primary documents, period artifacts and contextual information, the book provides unprecedented insight into the distribution and reception of NSK during the decade of social unrest that led to the end of Yugoslavia and socialism. The editors commissioned several new texts which contextualize the primary documents and expand and deepen the scholarship of art and culture of the time. In addition to that, texts by early critics and commentators and reprinted.
