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...

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 - Casus Belli (Video performance, VIDEO CD 83 - DOKUMENT) (19:20)
Production: Video CD, 1983
Recording of a video performance at the 1st International Video Biennale Video CD in Ljubljana, in which the video was included as a constitutive part of the event: the artist's gestures were shown from behind on monitors arranged at the edges of the venue with the help of eight video cameras. The frontal "representational" silhouette image shown on the canvas was thus counterpointed by revealing the artist's flesh-and-blood body behind the canvas, who ultimately stepped in front of the audience and perform...
