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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Exhibitions \/ Performances \/ Releases:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2024<\/strong><br>Musical Celeblocks &#8211; Solo exhibition, Cultural center Dragi Tozija &#8211; Resen, August 2024)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2023<\/strong><br>Politickin\u2019 (Prints and graphic installations) \u2013 Solo exhibition (Open Graphic Studio, Museum of the City of Skopje, November 2023)<br><br>Blockheads (Objects and paintings) \u2013 Solo exhibition (Cultural Information Centre Skopje, June 2023)<br><br><strong>2022<\/strong><br>Exhibition from the Open Graphic Studio\u2019s Collection \u2013 group exhibition (Museum of the City of Skopje, June 2022)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2009<\/strong><br>Macedonian Artists\u2019 Exhibition in Sofia \u2013 group exhibition of the Association of Fine Artists of Macedonia (Gallery of the National Palace of Culture \u2013 Sofia, July 2009, <a href=\"http:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20240401015435\/https:\/\/arhiva.zaum.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/2009_DLUM-Katalog-SOFIJA-2009.pdf\">catalogue<\/a> p.25)<br><br><strong>2008<\/strong><br>GraphICON \u2013 group exhibition (Open Graphic Studio, Museum of the City of Skopje, December 2008, <a href=\"http:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20240401015435\/https:\/\/arhiva.zaum.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2008_12_01_Grafikon.pdf\">catalogue<\/a> p.13)<br><br>Slang Dictionary \u2013 installation (Museum of the City of Skopje, Open Graphic Studio, White Night Festival, September 2008)<br><br><strong>2007<\/strong><br>Recurrences (Prints) \u2013 solo exhibition (Open Graphic Studio, Museum of the City of Skopje, 2007)<br><br><strong>2001<\/strong><br>NDRJ + SAKO = Split \u2013 collaborative double CD release of experimental electronic music (Alexandria &amp; FOSM, 2001; promotion in the Museum of Contemporary Art \u2013 Skopje)<br><br><strong>1997<\/strong><br>Live electronic music performance (Spoeni Sadovi \u2013 Multimedia Art Festival, Youth Cultural Center, Skopje, 1997)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although he considers himself primarily a printmaker \/ graphic artist, Andrej Marjanovic works a lot in both multimedia and in many classic arts techniques (painting, sculpture, and drawing).
