ResumoIn September 2019, Marina Abramović's exhibition, The Cleaner, billed as her “European retrospective,” opened in Belgrade. The funding for the exhibit was secured through a direct intervention that came from Serbian prime minister Ana Brnabić. The Cleaner quickly became the center of a vigorous political debate, which exposed hypocrisies of the regime of illiberal democracy currently in power in Serbia.
