Insta24 boot

Location: Belgrade

Date: 10 - 17.04.2019.

Insta24boot is an art exhibition that explores the limits and possibilities of Instagram Stories. The exhibition is a subversion of the dominant model of communication in social media, and it aims to usurp the well-controlled algorithm that governs the moods, self-esteem, and emotions of social network users. The exhibition is the brainchild of Vladimir Aleksić, a seemingly ordinary young man who started experimenting with Instagram Stories in 2016.

Aleksić discovered shortcuts, cavities, secret openings, and unimaginable exits within the existing options of the Instagram Story application, which led him to create a new artistic expression he calls the daily boot. The daily boot is a hybrid between the daily story and an artistic expression that draws a clear line between the two.

The exhibition showcases Aleksić’s daily boots, which are created spontaneously, depending on how bootable the day is. Moving objects become a challenge, and every situation is seen as a potential boot. Aleksić’s experimentation with Instagram Stories is a humorous and unusual way of subverting the dominant model of communication. The exhibition challenges the way we interact with social media and invites us to explore the limits and possibilities of this medium. It is a must-see for anyone interested in art, social media, and digital culture.

 

Vladimir Aleksić was born on March 15, 1984 in Belgrade. He lives and grows in the territory of Belgrade, and beyond.
