Adi Krasta: ‘Breaking News’, produced by Diver Santi for DebatikCenter of Contemporary Art

‘Breaking News’, produced by Diver Santi for DebatikCenter of Contemporary Art. The work was conceived in response to the shutting down of the television programme ‘Krasta/A Show’ on News24. In the immediate aftermath, there was much talk about the programme being critical of the government, but there was hardly any talk about the relationship between said criticism/criticism in general & the truth/truthfulness, not even from sympathetic parties. The work remedies this by reinserting the issue of truthfulness, and along with it the issue of trust, in the Media-Politics/Media-Public equation.
