Panic box! Gotova animacija :) / Panic box! Animation is ready :)


Nemanja je završio animaciju  i pokazuje nam na laptopu.  Sad već možemo tačno da zamislimo kako će cela instalacija da izgleda.  Po ko zna koji put merimo dimenzije drvene kutije u kojoj će se projektovati animacija.  U merenju i biranju materjala nam pomaže Tijana dokumentarista Tima 5 jer smo svi, zapravo, deo jednog velikog tima.  :) Kako to obično biva dok rešavamo jednu stvar, otvaraju se nove nedoumice koje nas muče, pa ipak tu je cela ekipa da pomogne i posavetuje. Razmišljamo šta ćemo ako bude padala kiša -  kako pričvrstiti konstrukciju za kamion?  Kako ne bismo lupali glavu, ja idem kod majstora po savet, a Nemanja i Amalija ostaju da pričaju o kustoskom tekstu.  ,,Panic box'' je ime dela, ali nema panike dok je timskog rada. :)

 Nemanja has finished the animation, and now he is showing  it to us on the laptop. While we are watching the animation, we can imagine how the entire installation would look like.  For the umpteenth time, we measure the dimensions of the wooden boxes in which it will be projected animation. In choosing the material of the box and in measuring the sides of it, helps us Tijana, documentarist of Team 5. After all, we are all part of one big team. :) As it usually happens, while we are resolving one thing, new concern came up, but there is a entire team to help and to advise us. We are considering what are we going to do if it rains and how to fix the construction for the truck? To make the whole thing easier, I'm going to find the artisan to give us advice, and Nemanja and Amalija remains to talk about the curatorial text. ‘’ Panic box'' is name of the artwork, but there is no panic while there is a teamwork. :)

Počeci druženja tima br. 2 / The beginnings of team ‘’ No.2’’


Nakon prvog sastanka sa svim timovima koji se održao 29. aprila u Mikser House-u, članovi tima broj 2 koji čine umetnik Nemanja Nikolić, kustoskinja Amalija Stojsavljević i saradnica kustosa/dokumentarista Tanja Đorđevic, odnosno ja. Još uvek pod euforijom od prethodnog sastanka gde smo čuli ideje svih timova, nastavili smo druženje u galeriji U10 gde Nemanja radi. Kako to već obično biva pri svakom upoznavanju, dok smo povezali ko koga sve poznaje i ko je gde radio, postajalo je sve jasnije da će tim funkcionisati opušteno i bez tenzije. Nemanja nas je upoznavao sa svojom idejom za Mikser. U pitanju je  animacija inspirisana scenom iz filma ,,Ptice’’ Alfreda Hičkoka, konkretno  scenom sa glavnom junakinjom u govornici. Zaintresovane ovom temom Amalija i ja smo ga maltretirale sa gomilom pitanja u vezi sa radom. Nemanja je strpljivo odgovarao, iako je bilo vrlo jasno da smo mu se popele na glavu, stoga, mala oda Nemanji na stprljenju. :)

Nakon završetka prolećnih praznika naš tim se 6. maja ponovo okupio u Mikser House-u. Raspoloženi i entuzijastični članovi tima su se nakon kraćeg odmora ozbiljnije posvetili projektu. Razmatrali smo i osmišljavali šta nam je sve potrebno za izložbu. Kao što i svaki iole dobar plan mora da se najpre formuliše, i mi smo proces izložbe postavili na papir. Amalija i ja smo pisale, a Nemanja je shodno svom interesovanju, naravno, crtao :) Došli smo do zaključka da kamion mora da se pokrije i da se napravi konstrukcija poput cirade za kamion koja će sama po sebi praktično dati iluziju telefonske govornice. Popisivali smo potrebni materijal, a kasnije davali ideje kako bismo mogli to da nabavimo. Od početne tačke na papiru, kada je sve još uvek izgledalo teško izvodljivo, do druge kafe u već radnoj atmosferi Mikser House-a uspeli smo da pronađemo veliki broj rešenja.

Kako bismo lakše vizuelno zamislili celu postavku, došli smo na ideju da obiđemo lokacije gde će biti smešteni kamioni. Podstaknuti entuzijazmom, a i velikim brojem ideja, sve lakše smo nalazili rešenja za nedoumice koje su nas u pocetku kočile. Počeli smo da radimo i stvaramo kao tim, sve nestrpljiviji da realizujemo rad :)



Following the first meeting with all the teams which was held  29.04.2013 in MixerHouse, members of team ‘’No 2’’ which consists of Nemanja Nikolic (artist), Amalija Stojsavljević (curator) and  Tanja Djordjevic, myself(associate curator / documentary), still under the euphoria of the previous meeting where we heard the ideas of all teams, we  continued to socialize in the gallery ‘’U 10’’, where Nemanja is working. As it is usually the case when we first meet somebody, we talked about who knows the same people and we exchanged our previous experiences, and it soon became increasingly clear that the team would operate in a relaxed and tension-free atmosphere. Nemanja told us about his idea for the Mixer festival. It is an animation inspired by a scene from the film, ''The Birds'' by Alfred Hitchcock, particularly the scene with the main character in a phone booth. Amalija and I took great interest in this issue, tortured him with a bunch of questions about the work, to which Nemanja patiently answered, even though it was very clear that we tired him, so we wish to thank him for his unbelievable patience :)

After the end of spring break,on the 6th of  May, our team was brought together again in the ambient of Mixer House. After a short break, full of enthusiasm and in high spirits, team members became more serious  and committed to the project. We considered all the things needed for the project. Since every good plan needs to be precisely brainstormed, we put the whole process  on paper. Amalija and I wrote, and Nemanja , of course, drew:) We came to the conclusion that the truck has to be covered and that we need to create structures such as tarpaulins for trucks, which itself will practically give the illusion of a phone booth. We decided on the necessary material s, and then we talked about ways of getting them. Although it all seemed hardly possible at the starting point, after only a few hours, in the working atmosphere of  Mixer House, we managed to find great number of solutions.

In order  to visualize  the entire setting, we came to the idea to visit the locations where trucks  would be located . Inspired and motivated, we  easily found solutions to dilemmas that initially held us back . We started to work  and create as a team,  excited and impatient to implement the project :)

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 6th 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 27th May) and during the festival (28th May – 2nd 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 28th May till 2nd 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).
