Tu nema ničega!

Dubravka Ugrešić

In her provocative essay, Dubravka Ugrešić considers life in post-socialist Europe and Croatia using the example of spas.

The former topos of civic culture, as a kind of sign of escape to idleness beyond social life, in the new historical conditions has become the most pregnant metaphor of the desolation of a space and time, from Bania to New York. The essay is accompanied by a series of photographs by Davor Konjikušić, who together with the writer visited several spas in Croatia, Slovenia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
