Abstract

The article puts in relation performatives of art works produced by Mangelos from1940s until his death in 1987 with the theoretical writings he practiced as an art historian, critic and curator under his official name Dimitrije Bašićević. In the focus of such consideration is Mangelos’s unique procedure of deconstruction of hegemonic (lethal) epistemologies that points at rigidity and limitations of disciplinary discourses, as well as at the performative power of language. For that reason, attention is paid to the artist’s insistence on bastardization of language the agency of which is manifested in a gap that opens between the meanings of words and their sonority, the gap in which the collapse of sense occurs.
