Maja Hodošček - The Lesson (00:15:20 (trailer 00:03:46))
Production: 2017
The Lesson takes places in school, during a lesson. We see pupils and the teacher engaged in a conversation about a particular historical movement, partisan schooling, that emerged during the Second World War in Slovenia as an opposition to the occupation. Hodoscek proposed the theme and material for the lesson and focused on a reading of a letter written by a particular partisan teacher. In the video, we observe the discussion that took place after the reading, where concepts such as methods of teaching un...

Danilo Milovanović - (Dis)connection (00:04:48)
Production: D.M., 2017
This intervention is a humorous, but actual reaction to the laying concrete on the public, living space. The idea requires a specific location that contains a grassy section interrupted with a concrete section. The grassy part must contain everyday use of a formed organic path, a shortcut. The intervention occurs with the covering of a concrete area with grassland-shaped surfaces that connects two grassy entities. A continuous 'organic' path is drawn, which connects the grass surfaces on the one hand, and o...

Danilo Milovanović - Intreeder (00:04:15)
Production: D.M. in Fotopub, 2017
Documentation of an intervention in a public space, performed by the artist together with the team of Fotopub festival in Novo mesto. In his public actions, Danilo Milovanović often criticizes capitalist-consumer urban reality in a humorous manner. With the help of nature he creates smybolic resistence. Young trees were planted in front of all the adversiting signs on a given street, thus obstructing the view to the advertising. The title of the video combines two English words: Tree and Intruder. The Intr...

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...

Đejmi Hadrović - Silent Observer (00:09:12)
Production: KulturKontakt Austria, 2017
Video performance acts as a monologue confession of a woman in her early thirties and the obstacles she is dealing with. Content deals with issues such as gender, identity, migration, and ethnicity. Autobiographical thoughts are exposed to the audience through the audio recording only, while the performer in the video is only partially visible. It gives a notion of a classical portrayal, with the mind being the main source of happening. The artist is addressing the audience the with world’s...

Lea Culetto - (Without) (00:02:48)
Production: L.C., 2017
The video is a collage of numerous advertisements for cosmetic products showing the female body in seductive poses. Their rapid exchange is disrupted by digital glitches. The sound in the video consists of a quote from the text Foucault, Femininity and the Modernization of Patriarchal Power by Sandra Lee Bartky. The author of the video reads the part of the text listing cosmetic products that a woman is supposed to use to achieve the perfect look.
