Tina Bertović / Principles of Copying and Transmutation

Painting to painting What does it mean to see? What does it mean to see a painting work? These seemingly banal questions open up a whole series of approaches that consider the question of perception – both perceptual and cognitive – in a wide range of scientific and theoretical disciplines. The complex relationship between the observer and the observed makes the phenomenon of seeing a demanding, and at the same time self-conscious procedure. To see means to become aware (to see), whereby the implicit gesture of insight into ... Read More

Valerija Cerovec / Antonija Bačić: Slightly Changeable Between Bodies

At first, we were interested in the textures, colors and shapes of fabrics. (He scratches his forehead. He puts his hand on his lap.) Fabrics are impressive to people. What we put on every day and take off, then put on again, says something about us. (He feels the hem of the dress he wears with his fingertips.) But not only that, textures are all around us – what we lean on, what we cover ourselves with. Fabrics ... Read More

Petra Orbanić and Marija Plečko: Natural Trajectories

"Often, in the moments when we were trying to explain our artistic instincts, we would say that everything we create is part of the process and that, as long as it lasts, we will last with it. In this process, there are phases that flow from one to another, gradually, non-violently, so that each subsequent one does not exclude the existence of the previous one. Every experience once gained cannot be ... Read More

Mia Štark: Traces of Movement – Visualization and Processuality

From the studio to the dance studio and back, again Thinking about how to approach the work of Mia Štark from the position of a dramaturge, I wondered first of all about the author's intention to choose someone who is only an average observer when it comes to fine arts, and a professional viewer in the field of contemporary dance as the author of the text. At the beginning, it seemed to me that these two viewing spaces ... Read More

Ivana Pipal: What and how, and rarely why

"Gestalt therapy, developed in the 1940s by Fritz Perls and his wife Laura, is an existentialist and phenomenological approach based on the assumption that people should be understood in the context of their permanent relationship with the environment. The initial goal of therapy is to make the client aware of what he feels and does. The approach is phenomenological, because it is focused on the experience of a person's reality, and existentialist, because it is based on the idea of ... Read More
