Opening event False Friends
We invite you to the opening of the exhibition False Friends, which, through the concept of so-called “false friends” – words that sound similar but differ in meaning – explores the relationship between language, identity, and politics.
In the context of the Balkans, a region shaped by shared history as well as divergent narratives, language emerges as a tool that can both connect and exclude, becoming a symbol of regional complexities, misunderstandings, and broader cultural tensions. The exhibition draws on the ideas of George Lakoff and Mark Johnson about how metaphors frame our understanding of the world, and presents artists who reflect on shifting meanings across borders and the potential of language to disrupt fixed narratives.
