Individual segments of the project were featured at solo and group exhibitions and biennials – after Venice, also in Prague, Tirana, São Paulo, and Istanbul – and in 2011, a book of the same title was published, comprising theoretical essays and previously unpublished documents. The "CODE:RED" exhibition at the City Art Gallery Ljubljana provides a complete overview of all of the realized “stages” of the project to date, with a special emphasis on critical information concerning the issue of the consolidation of sex workers’ rights. This is the first comprehensive presentation of "CODE:RED", including documentary material, texts, interviews, videos, photographs, and newspapers, and also the first time that certain of its constituent stages and activities are being presented in the artwork format.

Pogačar’s approach to the subject of parallel economies – human trafficking and the related sex industry being an inherent part of them – is based on trust and open communication between the artist and the other participants. The project regularly involves the artist initiating close collaboration between participating art institutions and organizations advocating sex workers’ human rights. The artist serves as a mediator in the relations between the various art institutions and the activist organizations that he connects them with for the duration of each of the project editions. He is interested in the attitude the community has toward marginal groups, especially regarding their rights, their social and economic status, and their methods of survival and tactics of work in the neoliberal economic and social structures, rather than the final visual manifestation of the exhibits or precise controlling of the random relations with visitors to the exhibition. The most important aspect of the project, and, indeed, its measure of success, is thus the quality of collaboration on both sides and the constructive dialogue between the participants, regardless of the form of presentation, be it an action, a performance, a conference, a workshop, a discussion, or an intervention. In the process, Pogačar acts successively as a researcher, observer, mediator, and finally translator of a certain social reality into the context of art. Given a final form only for the presentation in a gallery or museum, "CODE:RED" is, above all else, a vehicle for conveying the artist’s statement concerning the issue of sex work, with a central focus on the social inequalities we are faced with but are nonetheless, shamelessly, willing to live with.
