Photonic Moments award – for selected artist from 2007 exhibition

Announcement: October 24 2007 at 8. pm in Mala galerija in Cankarjev dom, Ljubljana!

The award for the best artist from this year Photonic Moment exhibition was awarded by Natascha Grilj from Austrian Cultural Institute. Photonic Moments has become the official exhibition of the Ljubljana Month of Photography and will be also hosted in some countries of the region of South-eastern and Eastern Europe and also in the wider region as a representative exhibition of this festival next year. With the expansion of this event into the international dimension we wish to increase the possibility of involvement of authors from these regions in the international photography field.

Our long term partner in these efforts is Austrian organization, the Cultural City Network (Kulturvermittlung Steiermark) from Graz. As a sponsor of the exhibition, they are giving out an award in the form of a one month residency and scholarship in Graz in 2008 and the chance of an independent exhibition for a selected author for the second year now.

The winner of Photonic Moments award for this year is Alexander Valchev from Bulgaria with his project called Reminescences , photographic series of portraits of great artistic merit in the spirit of Renaissance after the portrait paintings of old masters.

Alexander Valchev will be awarded with one month residency, scholarship and solo exhibition in year 2008 in Graz!!!

Кръвно отмъщение на Боряна Росса и Олег Мавроматти

25.10.2007 Хамбара от 18.30 часа
дискусионен клуб "на тясно" http://zetmag.org/na_tjasno

Кръвно отмъщение на Боряна Росса и Олег Мавроматти

Боряна Росса и Олег Мавроматти представят пърформанси, направени от тях през 2007, посветени на развенчаването на легенди в света на изкуството и политиката.

Между тях са :

„Кръвно отмъщение 2”, в което Боряна отмъщава на мъжката вездесъщност на несъстоялото се легендарно „самоскопяване” на Рудолф Шварцкоглер (Виенски акционист, 1940-1969, който се самоубил като се хвърлил от прозореца, а не при кръвозагуба след така наречената „кастрация”, както твърди легендата).

„Истинска любов” – пърформанс посветен на героичната про-милитаристка сватба на Рене и Тай Зуегер, състояла се през 2006, след като Тай е обезобразен от бомба в Ирак. Жена му – Рене - го нарича „картофчо” поради това, че Тай вече няма уши, нос и коса. Този пърформанс изгражда паралели с пост-военната живопис на Отто Дикс.

„Свято тяло”, в която се развива идеята за цялостността на живия организъм, с надеждата вторични белези като пол, раса и националност да отстъпят на заден план пред възхищението от живота (може и от смъртта).

„Знак на валст” използва пурата, като предмет-символ, добил разнообразни значения в историята на властта, като атрибут на Че Гевара, Фидел Кастро, Уинстън Чърчил и разбира се Моника Люински.

“Аз така го виждам, ” изразява отношението на художниците към произведението на изкуството и опрделянето на неговата стойност. Това се случва посредством едно неочаквано чувстевно “обиграване” на баналната фраза “така вижда художникът”.

EUROPEAN MEDIA ART FESTIVAL OSNABRÜCK

23 April - 25 May 2008

www.emaf.de

// CALL FOR ENTRIES

Give us your identity!

// WE WOULD LIKE TO INVITE YOU TO SUBMIT YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS TO
PARTICIPATE IN THE EMAF BY 10 DECEMBER 2007

// INFOS AND APPLICATION DOCUMENTS FOR YOUR PROJECT CAN BE FOUND AT
WWW.EMAF.DE

The motto of the 2008 festival is IDENTITY, reflected in film
programmes, lectures and specials. Positioning by the media and
artistic self-definitions will be pursued; individual, social and
global identities in a rapidly changing world will be explored and
queried according to subjective and scientific localisations.

The EMAF is one of the most influential forums of international Media
Art. As a meeting point for artists, curators, lenders, gallery owners
and an audience of specialists, the festival has had a great impact on
the topic and aesthetics of Media Art. Each year the festival offers
its visitors a current overview of experimental films, installations,
performances, digital formats and hybrid forms, ranging from personal
and political subjects or formal experiments to provocative
statements.

At the festival an international jury will present the >EMAF Award<
for a trend-setting work in Media Art and the >Dialogpreis< of the
German Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the promotion of intercultural
exchange. Furthermore, the jury of the German Federal Association of
Film Journalists will award the prize for the best German experimental
film.

// CINEMA Experimental shorts and feature films, music videos, new
forms of narration and documentation as well as specials

// EXHIBITION The latest installations from 23 April to 25 May 2008 in
the Kunsthalle Dominikanerkirche. The festival's exhibition will
present the issue of "Youth and identity". What we are looking for are
artistic stances on and glimpses of adolescent realities from a
variety of regions and cultures - regardless of the artist's age.

// EXPANDED MEDIA Artistic projects of digital media action and
interaction as well as performances, music and sound projects, live
acts, veejaying and the latest concepts from expanded cinema.

// INTERNATIONAL STUDENT FORUM The contact and project exchange for
new projects, tendencies and training concepts from the media
universities, academies of art and design colleges of Europe.

// CONGRESS Discussions and issues covering the various elements of
the festival in talks, workshops, artist presentations and panel
discussions

We warmly invite you to discover identities and the fascination of the
experimental with us in April 2008.
