The KRAK Center published the sixth issue of the Revizor fanzine. With the indicative title All That is Needed, the issue is dedicated to the Bosnian-German graphic designer and illustrator Sead Mujić. On 24 pages, Mujić creates an introverted picture vocabulary of confusing and paradoxical connotations with a diverse visual vocabulary, genre-wise between comics, street art and journalistic info-graphics. With minimal textual interventions excluded from any coherent context, Mujić explores possibilities of the image, creating extremely confusing and, in the conventional sense, dysfunctional content. Although he comes from the journalistic profession, in which illustrations and info-graphics are subordinated to newspaper articles and text that has an informative character, the author twists the logic of applied graphics consciously and, using its formal-aesthetic laws, forms a completely new logic of "commercially unusable" and pictorial silliness.

All That is Needed in this way deconstructs the logic of subordination of graphic design to the journalistic content, permuting the established hierarchy and recreating it. In his process, the author leaves out the client-editor, and as an illustrator and info-graphic artist, creates his own brief of a frantic and somewhat headless character. Although a conventional reader might notice that it is a kind of picture mania, the fanzine All That is Needed is an exclusive artistic product in terms of its genre approach, while in terms of the thematic coverage of marginal stories and events, it is a space of inclusiveness and inclusion. Using the strategies of surrealism – within which everything imagined is possible and consequently implemented with minimal deliberation – Mujić consciously operates with the effect of confusion and shock. In terms of authorship, he plays with the title "all that is needed" self-ironically, actually indicating the unnecessity of what follows. It could be said that exactly this "unnecessity" is the main backbone and value of this fanzine issue, and as a recycled value of liberal economic flows (design is a branch of the economy!) it is articulated here as a new knowledge.

This approach of Sead Mujić is based on layers of cultural sediments from his personal past. Growing up under the influence of punk, the Belgrade New Wave and during the Sarajevo movement New Primitives during the 1980s; forming within the framework of the Munich "duldung generation" and the mass concentration of refugees from Bosnia and Herzegovina during the 1990s; studying at the Faculty of Communication Design in Munich in the 2000s; with a critical awareness of the ethnic tensions of the environment he comes from (the Balkans) and the diasporic identities and class inequality of the environment he settled in (Central Europe), Sead Mujić is a visual anthropologist and ethnographer of this time whose sensibility is based on eclecticism and understanding of the multitude of people through diversity. The radicality of this fanzine issue is evident in its departure from the expected, in the sense of using conventional journalistic tools of illustration and graphic design for stories that, let’s say, at first do not make sense, but there they are and certainly exist.

After the first five issues of the Revizor fanzine realized during 2018 and 2019 in cooperation with organizations and practitioners from Bihać, Banjaluka, Rijeka, Split and Tuzla, this issue, designed and executed by Sead Mujić, is the first to be created within the framework of the KRAK Center for Contemporary Culture and as such represents advocacy for the affirmation of the artistic pluralism using the newspaper medium as its central means of expression.

The number was realized with the Foundation for Arts Initiatives funds. It is available in the KRAK Center and other selected locations in Sarajevo, Zagreb, Ljubljana, as well as via a link in .pdf format.
