L’amour du Risque - From the FRAC collection (French Regional Museum of Contemporary Art) J-5, Museum of Contemporary Art, Avenija Dubrovnik 17, msu@msu.hr, www.msu.hr. Art is meant to be freedom of expression. But what happens when we give it limits? When we add rules? Artists from FRAC have decided to take a plunge, to steer away from mainstream art and detach themselves from the rules. They have produced art works which put the expectations of the audience and art critics to the test. Has it paid off? See for yourselves.
