Hommage to Billie 2003-2004

Tomislav Gotovac (1937) is considered the precursor of performance art in the former Yugoslavia.

He began his career with photographic works and then he moved on to produce collages, films and performances. The artist made a number of avant-garde structuralist films, which positioned him alongside experimental filmmakers like Michael Snow and Peter Frampton. In his works, Gotovac plays close attention to procedures of film directing, including quotes and extracts of images and music as references and homages to other film directors and musicians who have inspired him.
