State in Time
Edited by IRWIN

Become a citizen of the first global state of the universe!

The NSK State in Time emerged in 1992, evolving in the context of the 
dissolution of Yugoslavia and the transformation Neue Slowenische Kunst. 
Existing both as an artwork and a social formation, a state that 
encompasses all time but holding no territory, the NSK State in Time has 
for two decades pushed the boundaries of artistic and political 
practice. This volume collects together, for the first time, analyses of 
the NSK State in Time including its relationship with the changing 
context of Eastern Europe, the connection between aesthetics and the 
state, the rise of NSK folk art, and documents the First NSK Citizen’s 
Congress in 2010.

Includes essays by Inke Arns, Huang Chien-Hung, Eda Cufer, Marina 
Grzinic, Irwin, Tomaz Mastnak, Viktor Misiano, Alexei Monroe, Ian 
Parker, Avi Pitchon, Stevphen Shukaitis, Slavoj Zizek, and Jonah Westerman.
