Upcoming exhibition in Belgrade

February 10, 2009

Tuesday 24 February 2008, Galerija Doma omladine, Belgrade at 19:00h

Mix media exhibition and discussion

“From the Periphery” exhibition displays works done in the summer of 2008 in two workshops of the Art Interventions program, “The Return of the Gastarbajters” in Požarevac and “Sex in Transition” in Kucevo. In each workshop participated around 20 artists as well as  international scholars, coming from Serbia, Germany, USA, Italy, Sudan, Austria, and more.

In both workshop the artists worked closely with the local communities and exhibited in public spaces.

Art Interventions is an interdisciplinary program that brings together local, national and international artists and scholars to disadvantage communities in order to identify socio-economical-political processes that are taboo in the community and find, through community participation, innovative ways to deal with them.

Still da video di intervista a pensionato neo-contadino.


“Sono in pensione, serve da passatempo e  contemporaneamente ci si leva.
Io c’avevo 40 piante di cavolo l’ho mangiato tutto! 120 porri ora c’e’ rimasto pochino, c’avevo un centinaio di finocchi. Ora deve vinire le fave, i piselli […] E’ robina che (se) uno ci sta dietro…si leva!
E’ un passatempo… che fare… io in casa non ci potrei stare, lavorare non mi fanno lavorare piu’ e allora tengo l’orto.
Che fo in casa…a dormire? sto fuori! ”
