Danilo Milovanović - Plastic Makes It Static (00:03:17)
Production: D.M. in Fotopub, 2017
Privatization and profit-making treatment of water resources is becoming an increasingly profitable business. Drinking water, which is vital for humans, should in no way be a commercial commodity that fills the shelves of supermarkets in hundreds of bottles of different brands. What would happen if all the water was packed and prevented from uninterrupted circulation in the nature? I recognized the fountain as an illustration of the hydrosphere in the urban area. That is the scene of my intervention. T...

Danilo Milovanović - Product (00:06:27)
Production: D.M., 2017
The goal of the intervention is to place the product, as a cell of consumer society, somewhere where it is not expected. The first step of the intervention is visiting supermarkets and collecting authentic brand labels found on imported fruit. This fruit represents the majority of accessible fruit on the market. The second step is to paste the stickers on the still groving fruits of a living tree. With this, I wanted to achieve 'branded' fruit effect before it became recognized as an 'edible product of natu...

Danilo Milovanović - Longcut (00:02:19)
Production: D.M., 2017
The idea of intervention arises from the question of the discourse of time in a modern society. This has "shrunk" at the mental level and it seems that 24 hours a day is no longer enough to perform all the tasks required by the pace of modern life. As a metaphor of the economy of time in the public space, I summarize the shortcuts - human traces across grass surfaces created with the aim of faster crossing. I intervene next to existing shortcuts by making 'longcut'. It is technically a transfer of Ric...

Danilo Milovanović - Roundabout Park (00:07:45)
Production: D.M., 2017
This intervention deals with public space in general. How do we experience it, where are the limits of using it, how do we behave inside of this? I found roundabouts an interesting examples of non-reachable public spaces, due to their position surrounded by roads. There is no legal possibility to come there as a pedestrian, although they often look very attractive and built for human presence on it. What if there is something else inside the roundabout, which is obviously made to be used by people? This par...

Danilo Milovanović - Urban Plants Cu(l)t (00:03:43)
Production: D.M., 2017
The intervention is a reaction to the design of external plants in public and private spaces. They are usually trimed in geometric forms, thereby making their aesthetic value dominant over the organic nature and biological function of the plants. I am reacting to this cultural phenomenon with the symbolic design of wild, branched out plants in the urban environment. As a design guide I use visible architecture in the background of the plant. It is an optical work that requires a look at the treated plant fr...

Danilo Milovanović - Cultivation (00:03:17)
Production: D.M. in Vstop prost, 2018
Simple street art intervention focuses on plants that have grown up from gaps or damages in architecture and streets. Due to their invasive nature they are usually automatically recognized as intruders among decorative plants shaped by people’s taste. However, we can notice them even in ordered urban areas at the spots we can just admire how they happened at. Through this intervention I played with term of cultivation followed by simple adaptation of these plants to form of ‘a nice green plant i...

Marko A. Kovačič - Post at the Red Star (2:40)
Production: Gibatorij, 2021
During the corona pandemic in 2020 and 2021, the author opened Javka pri Rdeči zvezdi (Post at the Red Star) in the former Mehanika factory and now Ropotarnca in Trbovlje to the public. In the heart of the once proletarian and revolutionary Red Districts, he performed the most complex staging of his fascinating forty-year artistic process to date, and through art encompassed social periods full of contradictions and paradoxes.
