On June 10, 2026, the Vladimir Becić Gallery opened an exhibition of photographs by Croatian photographer Mario Kučera (1967), a native of Slavonski Brod with an address in Zagreb.

According to Zagreb art historian Feđa Gavrilović in the preface to the catalog, “the title of the exhibition nullifies the locational determinant” of the art, explaining this by the narrative of the artist’s personal presence in material reality. This reality grounds the experience in Sartre’s “melancholy of transience” of the existentialist philosophy of his novel Nausea, which ranges from the abundance of “all life” to “fornication”.

Following the thinking of our contemporary, the great French philosopher Alain Badiou, we also see the process of the infinite in that zero degree of photography as a performative Event (Being and Event), we see the cultivated solitude of the artist, absorbed in love in the experienced moment.
