Iz perspektive jednog kamiona / From the perspective of the truck

Izložba je prošla, a evo kako je ceo dogadjaj ,,doživeo'' umetnicki rad ,,Panic box'' :)

kako je ,,on'' to video

zvuk koji je pratio animaciju dodatno je zaintresovao posetioce

i za kišu ima rešenja :)

javno vodjenje, Srdjan i Andrej pričaju o radu ,,Panic box''

Ipak je najbolje izgledalo noću

Komentar dečaka sa balonom: ,, Dzaba joj što paniči kad nema kud'' 

The exhibition is over, and this is how the whole event was experienced by truck :)

''Panic box'' izašao na ulicu :) / ''Panic box'' came out on the street :)

Postoji to nepisano pravilo da pred svaki događaj, kome prethodi duga i naporna priprema, vladaju trka, panika i onaj osećaj da će sve da se raspadne, a onda  nekako ispadne sve sjajno, onako kako je baš planirano. Tako je , naravno, bilo i otvaranje izložbe prvog dana Mikser festivala.  Kiša, koje smo se toliko plašili, na kraju nije sprečila  da svi radovi izgledaju sjajno. 

Posetioci zaintresovano  zastaju ispred naše  ,,Kutije Panike'' , a Ana- volonter tima br. 2 objašnjava značenje rada. Kamioni se premeštaju svakog dana na druge lokacije, zbog čega je i nama svaki dan drugačiji i time neponovljiv :)

...''Malo desno ako može...''

,,Panic box'' kad padne mrak 

Izgleda sve bolje i bolje :)

There is an unwritten rule that before any event which precedes the exhausting preparations it is always racing and panic and the feeling that everything will fall apart, and then somehow everything turns out great, according to plan. That was the case opening of the exhibition on the first day of the festival Mixer.Rain, which we so frightened of, did not obstruct all works to look great. Visitors with interest looked at our 'Panic box' and Ana-volunteer of team No. 2 explaining them the meaning of the art work. Trucks are moving every day to different locations, so every day is a  different exhibition and it is never boring :)

Tim #1 Saopštenje / Team #1 Statement

Nažalost, tim 1 nije mogao da nastavi sa izlaganjem na Mikser festivalu usled unutrašnjih nesuglasica koje smo pokušali da razrešimo. Nismo mogli da učinimo nešto više za timski rad, međutim, na međuljudske odnose se nekada ne može uticati što je, svakako, sastavni deo života.


Unfortunately, the team no.1 could not continue with the presentation of the artwork at Mikser festival due to internal disagreements that we have tried to resolve. We could not do more for the teamwork, however, the relationships cannot be influenced and that is certainly an integral part of life.

Tim #1 Postavka i izložba/ Team #1 Installing the artwork and the exhibition

Na dan otvaranja Mikser Festivala, rano ujutru, okupili smo se da bismo postavili instalaciju koja nosi naziv E=>1/2/3. Majin tata je bio glavni za izvođenje radova i zato smo mu veoma zahvalni. 

Takođe, jastuk je izgledao bolje nego što smo očekivali pa su neki želeli odmah da ga „isprobaju”. 

Postavljanje je prošlo uspešno, pa smo na dan otvaranja imali gotov rad uz dodatak izvođača koji su udahnuli život ovom projektu. I njima smo veoma zahvalni, pogotovo u momentima kiše i vetra kada nije bilo najzahvalnije biti napolju.

S obzirom na vremenske (ne)prilike, nekoliko puta smo pomerali rad iz magacina na otvoreno, pa se od danas nadamo da će nas vreme „poslužiti”. 

U timu su se takođe dogodile neke nesuglasice koje su u fazi rešavanja i mi se nadamo da ćemo uspešno privesti ovaj projekat kraju u narednih par dana…

At the opening day of the Mikser Festival, early in the morning, we gathered in order to set up the installation entitled E => 1/2/3. Maya's dad was in charge of the works, so we are very grateful to him.
Also, the big pad looked better than we expected and some immediately wanted to "try it out".
The setup had successfully passed, and we did everything before the opening with the addition of the performers who gave life to this project. We are very grateful to them, especially at times of rain and wind when it was not very rewarding to be outside.
Due to weather conditions, we moved the artwork several times from the warehouse to the open, and as of today, we hope that the time will be favorable.
The team is also facing some difficulties as conflicts arose and we are at the stage of resolving the problems and we hope to bring the project to a successful end in the next few days...

postavka rada tima 3 / setting of the work of team No. 3

Došao je dan postavke izložbe, samo jedan dan pred otvaranje. Sutra u 18 časova, sve će biti spremno i postavljeno za uživanje publike, ali sada smo i dalje do lakata u farbi, prašini i potpuno obuzeti pravljenjem drvene konstrukcije za kameru opskuru.Čim stolar Sava spoji poslednji komad drveta u kompaktnu drvenu kutiju, ulazimo u završnicu realizacije dela.

Poslednji put pred otvaranje, večeras ćemo isprobati da li naša kamera zaista funkcioniše.

Naša konstrukcija je jedna od zahtevnijih na ovoj izložbi, ali brzo napredujemo. Sve to ne bi baš tako glatko prolazilo da nije jedne grupice momaka- majstora koji su nam zaista neizmerno pomogli! I naravno majstor Sava koji je zbog svoje veštine tražen u celoj Savamali!

Proces realizacije ove izložbe se brzinom svetlosti primiče kraju, a mi vas sutra čekamo u 18 časova na otvaranju, kada će možda nekome delovati kao da je cela izložba prosto “pala sa neba”. 

                                 farbanje

                              stanje ujutru - imamo samo postament

                        majstor Sava započinje konstrukciju

                           napreduje seee!

                            počinje da liči na kameru opskuru

                        posle više od 13 sati rada, sa ekipom momaka-majstora, imamo rezultat!

The day of the exhibition setting is here, just one day before the opening. Tomorrow at 18 pm, everything will be ready and set up for the enjoyment of the audience, but now we're still up to our elbows in paint, dust and we are engrossed in making wooden structure for the camera obscura. As soon as carpenter Sava merges the last piece of wood into a compact wooden box, we will enter into the phase of final implementation of work.
The last time before the opening, tonight, we will try out if our camera is really functioning.

Our construction is one of the most demanding in this exhibition, but we are making progress fast. All this would not be quite so smoothly if there wasn’t a small group of guys-artisans who really helped us immensely! And of course carpenter Sava who is wanted for his skills throughout Savamala.
The realization of this exhibition is coming to an end and we are waiting for you tomorrow at 18 pm at the opening, when to someone it might seem as if the whole exhibition simply "fell out of nowhere."

Tim 7 / Team 7

Tim 7 predstavlja internacionalnu grupu čiji su članovi: umetnica Marika Troili (koja dolazi iz Švedske), kustos Andrej Bereta i saradnica kustosa i dokumentaristkinja, Milica Bobić.

Kako je Marika poslednja postala deo timova Mikser Festivala, samim tim su ideje poslednje prezentovane. S obzirom da je njen rad fiksiran, mesto koje će zauzeti tokom čitavog Mikser estivala nalazi se ispod Brankovog mosta, na stanici tramvaja.

Marikin rad se zove “Plutajući svetovi” gde je reč o staroj priči o narandžama. Naime, svaki čovek je kao polovina narandže koja pluta po površini vode u potrazi za svojom idealnom drugom polovinom. Neko je pronađe, neko ne.

Marika je pre nekoliko dana stigla u Beograd, a juče se susrela sa ostalim članovima projekta "Kustosiranje". U sledećem tekstu ćete saynati više o samoj umetnici, njenoj zamisli kao i o realizaciji samog dela.



Team 7 is an international group whose members are: artist Marika Troili (who comes from Sweden), curator Andrej Bereta and associate curator, Milica Bobic.
As Marika was last to become part of the teams for Mikser Festival, her ideas were presented last. Given that her work is fixed, she will not change positions throughout the Mikser festival, and the location for her artwork is the tram station under the Branko's bridge .
Marika's work is called "Floating Worlds" which is an old story about oranges. In fact, every person is like half of  an orange floating on the surface of water in search of his/her ideal second half. Someone finds it, someone does not.

Marika arrived in Belgrade few days ago, and met with other members of the "Kustosiranje" project. In the next post you will know more about the artist, her ideas and the making of the artwork. 

Proces rada i okvir i format izložbe / Work in progress and planned format of the exhibition

KUSTOSIRANJE: DOŽIVLJAJ U POKRETU, Mikser festival 28.05- 02.06.2013.

Planirani format i okvir izložbe:

• Formirano je 6 timova čiji je zadatak da oblikuju umetnički autonoman rad, koji istovremeno komunicira sa drugim radovima kako bi se kroz njihovu objedinjenost postigao jedinstven koncept, prepoznatljiv po svojoj raznolikosti.
• Ključne reči: mobilnost, tranzitnost, promena, fluktuacija, transport...
• Karakter radova: Svi radovi ce biti "mobilni"- 5 timova će radove instalirati na kamionete (male i veće) Gradske čistoće, dok će 6. tim postaviti fiksiran rad (čija je pojavnost, ipak, vrlo "pokretljiva")
• Svaki tim čine: umetnik/ ca, kustos/ kinja, i dokumentarista/ kinja. Pozicija svakog je jasno definisana, i istovremeno su svi upućeni na neophodnost međusobne komunikacije i saradnje, u okviru pojedinačnog tima, ali i uzajamno, kroz među- timsku saradnju. U tom smislu, najvažniji pojam ovako postavljenog timskog rada jeste odgovornost. Sledstveni pojmovi su: transparentnost rada (umesto mistifikacije "stvaralačkog procesa"), share kultura (umesto "autorskog stava"), participativnost i interakcija sa publikom (umesto distance, najčešće bazirane na uzajamnom nepoznavanju).
• Podela uloga: Umetnik/ ca i kustos/ kinja razvijaju ideju rada, traže najbolji način za realizaciju. Umetnik predlaže osnovnu zamisao i medij, a kustos pronalazi kontekst, predlaže prezentativnost i komunikacione tehnike; zajednički stvaraju jednu kompaktnu, argumentovanu priču. Zadatak dokumentariste/ žurnaliste je da svakodnevno prati kreativni proces, zapaža i beleži (tekstualno i fotografski) kreativni razvoj celokupnog rada. U toku jednog dana (po potrebi i više puta dnevno), svaki dokumentarista će dvojezično (srp/ eng) u vidu blog-forme izveštavati o "razvoju situacije" u svom timu (o rešenjima do kojih dolaze, načinima realizacije, mogućim obrtima...), tokom pripremnog perioda (do 28.5, kada je Otvaranje MF), ali i tokom trajanja festivala. Ovaj žurnalisticki posao počinje najkasnije za 7 dana.
• O radovima: Svaki rad će biti (osim jednog, ranije pomenutog) tokom trajanja izložbe istovremeno i konačan, fiksiran na podlogu (kao svojevrstan "postament"), ali i promenjljiv, odnosno pokretan. Izložba KUSTOSIRANJE: DOŽIVLJAJ U POKRETU biće svakodnevno drugačije instalirana u prostoru Savamale čiji će radovi ostajati u međusobnoj komunikabilnosti koji čini važnu konstantu i karakteristiku ovog dinamičnog projekta.
• O postavci: Svakog dana festivala, izložba će biti postavljana u periodu 17- 17.45h, a javna vođenja će biti utvrđena uvek u isto vreme. Kroz izložbu će voditi jedan od timova (6 dana, 6 timova), a sam raspored radova će biti drugačiji. Radno vreme izložbe je od 18 do 04h.
• "Peripatetički program" - prateći program će se odvijati "u hodu", bitno različit od pretežno "kamerne situacije", koja dominira u ovakvim prilikama. Neke tribine, koje pripremamo, ipak, održavaće se u zatvorenom prostoru usled tehničkih razloga.

ABOUT AND AROUND CURATING: THRILL IN MOVEMENT, Mikser festival 28.05. – 02.06.2013

Planned format of the exhibition:

• Six teams were formed with a clear assignment to realise a new artistic work, both autonomous and in correlation with others, developing a joint and recognisable artistic concept.
• Key words: mobility, transit, change, fluctuation, transport.
• Artworks general info: all works will be mobile – 5 teams will have their works installed on mini trucks, while the 6^th team will set a fixed work (while having a clear element of movement).
• Each team consists of: an artist, a curator and a curatorial associate/documentary. Their roles are clearly defined, by the requirements of mutual communication and cooperation, as part of each specific team and inter-team work. Having that in mind, the most important intention of this team working is – responsibility. The focus is on: the transparency of work (instead of mystification of the “creative process”), share culture (instead of “author attitude”), participation and interaction with audience (instead of distance, based on mutual ignorance).
• Roles: Artist and curator are in charge of developing the idea and the best possible way of artistic production. The artist presents the basic concept and technique, while the curator defines the context, suggests the presentation and ways of communication; together, they are creating a compact and argumented narrative. The curatorial associate is in charge to track the creative process, like a journalist, by text and photo posts, documenting the whole artistic process. On daily bases, every associate will be publishing a blog post (in both Serbian and English), tracking development and key challenges in his/her own team, during preparatory period (till 27^th May) and during the festival (28^th May – 2^nd June). This journalistic process starts next week.
• On artworks: all artworks (except for one, previously mentioned) will be fixed on basis (trucks), but also mobile. Every day of Mikser festival, About and around curating: thrill in movement visual artistic programme will be installed on different locations in Savamala district streets, while the mutual communication of artworks will be pointed out as important element of the exhibition setting.
• On exhibition setting: during the festival, each day the exhibition will be installed at 17- 17.45h. Public guidanes will take place each day, by one of six teams, in same announced time. The exhibition will be opened from 28^th May till 2^nd June with working hours 18 – 04h.
• "Peripatetic programme": the accompanying programme will be consisted of walking events, different from chamber and static format, usually associated with this kind of activities. Several panel-discussions would be held in closed space (Mikser House).
