The Republic of Macedonia, throughout its long history of civilization, witnessed the fact that at times a single stroke by the artist is sufficient to separate two artistic eras. In these Balkan regions the art has often been the sole refuge from the everyday cruelty, therefore Macedonian towns have always been a meeting point of those, who like the great Michelangelo, felt that art is jealous, yet sincere and eternal, if we truly and completely give in to it. The 14th Biennale for Young Artists, held in Skopje, the everlasting source of endemic culture and energy, represents another historical testimony that art is the trustworthy medium which distinguishes man from the rest of the world â&#x20AC;Ś still, uniting man and art. In the course of the 10-day-happening, Macedonia will present a centre in which more than 700 young artists from 48 countries around Europe and the Mediterranean will perform an exciting encounter, confronting their individuality and creativity. By realizing this significant event, the Republic of Macedonia will be set in the attention focus, not only of the cultural, yet the European public, asserting the historically merited place amongst the developed, advanced European civilizations. Merely, a further material fact, testifying that Macedonia is capable of becoming an equal component of the European institutions. I firmly believe in the high organizational profile we are offering, both technically and artistically, since Skopje possesses all capacities operating as a successful host of such a happening. It is a city that has hosted and produced numerous international events of culture, staging numerous well-known artists, contributing with their art in order to alter and shape this city. Yet, Skopje has not forgotten their contribution and marked their creative development. The Republic of Macedonia is a progressive cultural environment nowadays, and its Government and Ministry of Culture, invest great assets in cultural and artistic development, of priceless significance for our country. By presenting potentials, differences, and creativity of young artists from Europe and the Mediterranean, the Government of Republic of Macedonia and the Ministry of Culture, do not only realize their wish to participate in the large European family, they present as well their objective to accept novel and higher benchmarks in the field of culture. I am assured that by organizing this highly significant happening, the Republic of Macedonia will contribute to cultural initiation, merging and unity of the citizens of Europe. Elizabeta Kanceska-Milevska Minister of Culture of the Republic of Macedonia

The Biennial Skopje 2009 represents a main step in the path which leads us from the edition held in Bari to the project of an edition on the South Shore of the Mediterranean. It has become an important aim as its organization took place in a very difficult moment, not only in this area but also worldwide, when, due to the economic crisis affecting millions of people, the realization of cultural events such as the Biennial of Young Artists from Europe and the Mediterranean became harder. Despite this scenario, we succeeded in giving life to the 14th edition of the event, thanks to the engagement and the interaction between the BJCEM Association, the Government of the Republic of Macedonia, the City of Skopje and our members of AMMS. All of us have strongly wanted that the Biennial will be welcomed in this country of a recent past but with its roots in antiquity and with a rich multicultural heritage to allow all the invited Euro-Mediterranean artists to get in contact with the young Macedonians and their territory, through sharing knowledge and collaborating in favor of a mutual exchange of experiences, laying down the foundations to create steady relations to become bridges connecting all the shores of the Mediterranean. With Skopje 2009 we write a new chapter of the Biennial, which from 1985 till today has worked to bring into being a cultural Mediterranean, enlightening issues like creativity, dialog, artistic production as economic booster of regional development, where artists and citizens, upholders of traditions, languages and different ways of expressions, have the role of protagonist united by the wish to cooperate and to grow together. I warmly thank all of those who have believed in this project and through their engagement and their work have made possible the realization of Skopje 2009. I hope that for all the young artists who have contributed to giving life to the Biennial, with their artworks, that this will be a special experience and an important moment of professional and personal development that they will remember forever. Luigi Ratclif President of the Association for the Biennial of Young Artists from Europe and the Mediterranean

Republika Makedonija niz svojata dolga istorija na civilizacijata, od sopstvenoto iskustvo znae deka ponekoga{, eden poteg na umetnikot, e dovolen da razdvoi dve umetni~ki epohi. Na ovie prostori od Balkanskiot poluostrov, umetnosta ~estopati bila edinstvenoto pribeì{te od surovosta na sekojdnevieto i tokmu zatoa, makedonskite gradovi od sekoga{ bile svratili{ta na site koi kako i golemiot Mikelanxelo, po~uvstvuvale deka umetnosta e qubomorna i deka e iskrena i ve~na, samo ako i se podarime sosema. Odrùvaweto na 14-to Bienale na Mladi umetnici, tokmu vo Skopje, vo gradot nepresu{en izvor na endemi~na kultura i energija, pretstavuva u{te edna istoriska potvrda deka umetnosta e najsigurnoto sredstvo so koe ~ovekot se izdvojuva od svetot.. . no, i navistina, soedinuva so nego. Vo tekot na desetdnevniot nastan, Makedonija }e stane centar vo koj pove}e od 700 mladi umetnici od 48 zamji od Evropa i od Mediteranot, ke ostvarat vozbudliva sredba na koja }e gi sprotivstavat sopstvenata individualnost i kreativnost. So realizacijata na ovoj zna~aen nastan, Republika Makedonija }e se pozicionira vo sredi{teto na vnimanieto, ne samo na kulturnata tuku i na evropskata javnost, potvrduvaj}i go istoriski zasluènoto mesto vo redot na razvienite, napredni evropski civilizacii. Ednostavno, u{te eden materijalen fakt so koj Makedonija dokaùva deka e kadra da stane ramnopraven del na evropskite institucii. Uverena sum deka }e ponudime organizacija na isklu~itelno visoko, tehni~ko i umetni~ko nivo, bidej}i Skopje gi poseduva site kapaciteti za da bide uspe{en domakin na manifestacija od vakov vid. Toj e grad koj vo sebe primal i od sebe iznedril mnogu kulturni manifestacii so internacionalen karakter, koi bile scena za golem broj poznati umetnici, ~ii ostvaruvawa go menuvale i oblikuvale, a Skopje ne im ostanuvalo dol`no, ostavaj}i svoj pe~at vo razvojot na nivnoto tvore~ko sozrevawe.

It is a pleasure for me to give my patronage to the 14th edition of the Biennial of Young Artists from Europe and the Mediterranean. It is an extraordinary event that goes far beyond the frontier of ordinary cultural projects. The Biennial serves as a practical podium for a shared creative dialog. This diverse group of artists, cultural operators, policy makers and other participants, get together to take advantage of this unique platform through creative activities and shared experience. In the 21st century, Europe needs to become even more intercultural, based on a respectful exchange of views between individuals and groups with different cultural and religious backgrounds, on an equal basis. In 2009, the European Year of Creativity and Innovation, the European Commission intends to raise public awareness of the role of creativity and innovation in the knowledge society and to stimulate a broad policy debate. Let me highlight some of the issues we are putting on the table this year. First of all, creativity is not an innate gift; at least not exclusively. Everyone is creative in some way or another. Our common goal should therefore be to foster an environment that stimulates creative and innovative actions, those of young people in particular. We also need to identify and reward the cultural sector and creative people in general for what they contribute to the society and economy. They can help us question the traditional modes of production and consumption. They can help us put in motion the social, technological and economic changes that will see us through the global economic downturn. In these difficult times, Europe needs more than ever the inventiveness of the cultural sector and its traditional power to provoke debate. The Biennial in Skopje provides an excellent opportunity to embrace all these issues during 10 days of intensive cultural movements. I am sure that you will enjoy the stirring program and soak up the creative atmosphere of this unique and inspirational event. JĂĄn Figel Member of the European Commission Responsible for Education, Training, Culture and Youth

We here at the 14th Biennial of Young Artists from Europe and the Mediterranean, Skopje had the honor of being chosen as the host city, and thus become a part of the map of cities-organizers of an important international event which celebrates and promotes youth, creativity, intercultural dialog, social cohesion and the inclusion of young artists in the cultural life of the European and Mediterranean region. For a period of ten days, Skopje, as a host city, will open its seven gates for the seven art disciplines, and will also welcome, most cordially, the great number of artists, journalists, cultural operators, as well as all other visitors and art lovers. Skopje, as the capital of the Republic of Macedonia, is on the eternal crossroads between civilizations, nations and cultures, on the territory where the east and the west, the north and the south constantly intertwine, a territory on which cultures have always fought and collided, which in itself had brought about changes: both cultural and political. Many people would support the idea that the development of a city and a country lies in the development and wealth of the economy. An important thing for all of us is to understand and to become even more aware that culture, besides generating and creating spiritual values and historical and artistic artefacts, has long ago overcome the role of a silent companion to the social processes. Skopje is a city which can be proud of its multicultural milieu whose roots lie in the archaeological artefacts found in the area of Skopje, dating as far back as 6000 BC. If to this we also add the fact that the Byzantine emperor Justinian I was born in the Skopje valley, there is no doubt about our cultural connection with Mediterranean and European cultures. The globalization and the new world order dictate for all those cultures and their benefits to be fitted within the contemporary social trends, the contemporary economy, the development of international cooperation, mobility of the artists, entry of the contemporary cultural society and critical intellectual thought, development of cultural industries and the creative production sector in the cities, as well as stimulating the avant-garde in young people, as a key factor for the progressive development of society. Culture today, as a part of the contemporary European society, is becoming an ever-growing generator of new ideas and a principal strategic factor for the development of the countries of the Euro-Mediterranean region and their neighbors. The Biennial of Young Artists from Europe and the Mediterranean will be an excellent opportunity for the City of Skopje to present itself as a city with a multicultural and multiethnic structure, where young artists will be able to express their creativity, innovativeness and communicativeness. For the upcoming ten days Skopje will host many world renowned artists and other people, and this will give it a chance to promote itself and show its openness to the world. The City of Skopje as a member of several networks and associations of cities also nurtures the European perspective. In that sense, the membership of Skopje in the Association of the Biennial of Young Artists from Europe and the Mediterranean is another opportunity for establishing new contacts and facing new challenges. I wish the young artists a pleasant stay in Skopje, hoping that the impressions of this city will be an inspiration for their future creative engagement. Koce Trajanovski Mayor of the City of Skopje

Mi pri~inuva osobeno zadovolstvo {to sum pokrovitel na ~etirinaesettoto izdanie na Bienaleto za Mladi Umetnici od Evropa i Mediteranot. Smetam deka pretstavuva eden isklu~itelen nastan koj gi nadminuva granicite na voobi~aenite proekti na kulturata. Bienaleto ja igra ulogata na prakti~en podium za razmena na kreativniot dijalog.

Vo 2009ta, Evropskata godina na kreativnost i inovacija, Evropskata Komisija se stremi da ja podigne javnata svest vo pogled na ulogata na kreativnosta i inovaciite vo sferata na znaeweto, kako i da stimulira edna po{iroka debata za politika. Dozvolete mi da vi potenciram nekoi od temite za koi }e se rasprava ovaa godina. Kako prvo, kreativnosta ne e vroden talent, barem ne vo celost. Site sme kreativni na svoj na~in. Zaedni~ka cel ni e da ja ohrabrime sredinata da stimulira kreativnost i inovacii, osobeno kaj mladite lu|e. Isto taka sakame da go utvrdime i nagradime sektorot za kultura, kako i kreativnite lu|e vo celost, za nivniot pridones vo op{testvoto i ekonomijata. Tie moàt da ni pomognat vo ispituvaweto na tradicionalnite na~ini na proizvodstvo i potro{uva~ka. Moàt da ni pomognat i da zapo~neme so op{testvenite, tehnolo{kite i ekonomskite promeni, za da ja prebrodime ovaa globalna ekonomska kriza. Vo ovie te{ki vremiwa, na Evropa pove}e od koga bilo Ă se potrebni inovacii vo sektorot za kultura kako i voobi~aenata mo} za inicirawe na debata. Bienaleto vo Skopje ovozmoùva odli~na mo`nost da se opfatat site ovie temi vo tekot na intenzivnata desetdnevna manifestacija.

Skopje kako glaven grad na Republika Makedonija, se nao|a na ve~niot krstopat me|u civilizaciite, narodite i kulturite, na teritorijata kade postojano se isprepletuvaat istokot i zapadot, severot i jugot, teritorija na koja otsekoga{ vojuvale i se sudirale kulturite, a seto toa donesuvalo promeni: kulturni i politi~ki. Mnogumina bi se zaloìle za idejata deka razvojot na eden grad i edna dràva leì vo razvienoto stopanstvo i bogatata ekonomija. Va`na rabota za site nas e da razbereme i da staneme u{te posvesni deka kulturata pokraj toa {to generira i sozdava duhovni vrednosti i istoriski i umetni~ki artefakti, odamna ja ima nadminato ulogata na nem pridru`nik na op{testvenite procesi. Skopje e grad koj moè da se gordee so svoeto multikulturno milje ~ii koreni leàt vo arheolo{kite artefakti pronajdeni na tloto na Skopje u{te od 6000 godina p.n.e. Ako na ova go dodademe faktot deka vo skopskata kotlina e roden vizantiskiot imperator Justinijan Prvi, nesomnena e na{ata kulturna povrzanost so mediteranskite i evropskite kulturi. Globalizacijata i noviot svetski poredok nalagaat vgraduvawe na site tie kulturi i nivnite pridobivki vo sovremenite op{testveni trendovi, vo sovremenata ekonomija, razvivaweto na me|unarodnata sorabotka, mobilnost na umetnicite, vlez na sovremenoto kulturno op{testvo i kriti~kata intelektualna misla, razvivawe na industriite na kulturata i kreativniot proizvodstven sektor vo gradovite, kako i stimulirawe na avangardnosta na mladite, kako klu~en faktor za progresivniot razvitok na op{testvoto.

Bienaleto na mladi umetnici od Evropa i Mediteranot }e bide odli~na mo`nost za gradot Skopje da se pokaè sebesi kako grad so multikulturna i multietni~ka struktura, na koe mladite umetnici }e ja izrazat svojata kreativnost, inovativnost i komunikativnost.

Skopje, the capital city of Republic of Macedonia, is ready to open the seven gates of art, greeting warmly and offering space for one of the major cultural events in the country, in order to welcome around 1,000 artists coming from 46 countries around Europe and the Mediterranean. The seven gates of art will be open for the citizens of the country, other Balkan countries, and even farther, since such event will be a rare moment when premises of culture in Skopje will breathe to capacity. Music, visual arts, gastronomy, literature, theatre, all represent keys to open the cultural gates of Skopje in September. In the role of organizers, we are honored to coordinate and manage this kind of event, primarily because of its international features. Europe and the Mediterranean will have the opportunity to encounter closely the Macedonian culture and traditions, thus Macedonia is promoted beyond its borders. Secondly, this event presents a great challenge for us due to the efforts we are making, this cultural biennial for young artists to signify as a hallmark for a successfully realized project and model how such cultural event, should, can and must be organized. The aim is to follow the tradition both the European and the Mediterranean countries to be identified by successful and prolific cooperation in the cultural domain. We have projected Skopje to obtain certain hallmark by this Biennial. Therefore after completing this happening, we would like to leave an actual imprint testifying that Skopje functioned as a European metropolis of culture. Thus we are sending the messageâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the cultural Biennial must leave such imprints testifying that cultural differences can lead to successful cooperation, progress, improvement, and even a decisive factor in creating policies in this cultural sphere. To learn how to meet and respect through differences in culture. On behalf of this, we are opening the seven gates of the cultural Biennial for young artists from Europe and the Mediterranean in Skopje. The games can finally begin. Yours faithfully, Emil Mitevski Director of Skopje Biennial Association for International Youth Cooperation, Skopje

Arts Council England, the national development agency for the arts, is delighted to support the Skopje 2009 14th Biennial. We work to get great art to everyone by championing, developing and investing in artistic experiences that enrich people’s lives. Arts Council England has a long track record of working with young people from all backgrounds and abilities. The work has benefited from increased investment in arts activities for, by and with young people in recent years. Fifteen UK artists will be taking art in the Biennale. They have been supported by Arts Council England and four East Midlands universities, De Montfort in Leicester, Derby, Loughborough and Nottingham Trent. They will be bringing over a host of work including dance, visual art, film and live performance. It is our belief that all young people have the right to participate in the widest possible range of artistic and creative activity, as practitioners, participants and as audiences. We look forward to more exciting opportunities for intercultural dialogue and welcoming a World Event for Young Artists to the UK in 2012. In 2008/09 we invested more than £570 million of public money from the Government and the National Lottery. This is the bedrock of support for the arts in England. Between 2008 and 2011, we will invest £1.3 billion of regular funding in around 880 arts organisations across England. Arts Council England

Enter Skopje The idea of the project is to design seven gates to enter Macedonia square. These gates are portable so that they can be placed in any other plaza in the world. The new gates are oriented on the axes of the important spots of the city. Each gate is a small exhibition that describes the history of the location that is on its axis. Connection, wealth, strength, memories, highness, and the heritage of Skopje influenced the design of the seven new gates, so there are seven designs for seven words that represent Skopje. So now anyone can listen, see, and feel Skopje and can enter Skopje in any place in the world.

During a journey to Sinaï, the artist became conscious of the shift in awareness of the status of the carpet in our society. For example, in a Bedouin camp where it was originally considered merely as a useful and functional object, today it has become a decorative object. A realization that produced Sédent’air (Sedent’air’y) where Assouline reverses the process so that the exclusively decorative carpet, when hung on a wall, becomes a comfortable seat when laid on the ground. Creating is just a way of “reinterpreting images arising from our collective subconsciousness with regard to present day society.”

Na primer, po beduinskite kampovi prvobitno se smetal samo kako korisen i prakti~en predmet, no denes se smeta za dekorativen predmet. Taka kako rezultat na ova se pojavi Sédent’air (Sedent’air’y) kade Asulin go vra}a procesot pri{to dekorativniot }ilim zaka~en na yid, pretstavuva izvonredno umetni~ko delo, no mo`e i da poslu`i kako udobno ~ergi~e, koga e rasposlan nazemi.

Diamond Dogs 1984 was written by George Orwell in 1948 and looked to a future controlled by Big Brother in which uniformity was absolute. In 1984 the album Diamond Dogs by David Bowie fulfilled the intention of promoting a multimedia version of the book. Associated with Diamond Dogs was the silhouette of the Afghan hound, image of the album. Connecting these two points in time, the collection refers to the tailoring adapted to the female body, in parallel with the 1940s and the post-war years. And the silhouette of the Afghan hound stands out because of its extended limbs and out-thrust chest.

Ku~iwa od dijamant Xorx Orvel ja napi{a 1984 vo 1948 i nayre vo edna idnina kontrolirana od Golemiot Brat*, kade caruva{e apsolutna ednoobraznost. Vo 1984 albumot Ku~iwa od dijamant od Dejvid Bouvi ja promovira{e multimedijalnata verzija na knigata. Kako asocijacija na Ku~eto od dijamant se javi siluetata na persiskiot pes, slikata od albumot. Koga bi gi povrzale ovie dve to~ki vo vremenska perspektiva, kolekcijata se odnesuva na krojot adaptiran na `enskoto telo, kako paralela na 1940tite i postvoeniot period. A siluetata na persiskiot pes se izdvojuva poradi izdol`enite ekstremiteti izdadenite gradi.

PRIMENETI UMETNOSTI

First idea: clothing as a protective shield. We protect the intimacy of our nude bodies as we cover ourselves from others’ looks, we protect our real self when we dress so as to make, see or believe who we are, how we feel. Second idea: the human body and its interior is something fragile that must be protected. Two concepts: protector/protected, I create clothing which has to be understood as a wrapping which protects fragile objects. Chosen color? White: is there any other color more fragile than this?

The aim of the project is the analysis of the interrelationship between “inside” and “outside,” inside and outside ourselves, inside and outside our home, inside and outside our land, our city, our country. How can we manage this interaction? What do we need to leave our troubles and our fears outside? So we tried to imagine, with irony and pessimism, what we do need, at the home front door, beside the doorbell, the mailbox, the nameplate… Projecting goods within the rules of the performing arts requires new fittings functional to new/old needs: improbable entrance furniture for a probable future.

Marta Bueno studied architecture in the Masters Program for Environmental Studies and Bioclimatic Architecture at the Polytechnic University of Madrid. As she is interested in urban and environmental subjects, she considers that through architecture a city’s life can be improved. The Stockholm City Library is designed as a building with a façade that shows ads, information about cultural events, projections, etc. Thus it turns into a place of reference for the city.

Over the last two years at the School of Design in Zagreb various shops such as Calvin Klein, Lacoste, and Cacharel have been built. They have blocked the entrance to the school so that the entire surrounding looks more like a shopping mall. Also the program of the school is mostly commercial advertising, leaving little space for non-profit, culture-based and innovative work. Therefore, we decided to take a critical stand toward the current situation and make an installation which includes our entire school, turning it into a dysfunctional supermarket.

The artworks express three different kinds of perception influenced by Skopje. In Free Perception, the influence of Skopje on young graphic designers which frees their creativity to the point of material production of thoughts is presented. In Pragmatic Perception, the perception of reality (exactly as it is) is presented, and in Reserved Perceptions seven human perceptions which are achromatic until they enter into the seven gates of Skopje when they get coloring are shown. Skopje gives color to the life of its young citizens.

Bla, Bla, Bla is a project that aims to raise rubbish bags from obscurity. From the simply useful product they have always been they are transformed into funny protagonists of public places. The rubbish bags talk to us, telling us things like: “Who has turned off the light?,” “I’ve just come back from a party,” “I have some extra weight,” “I'm totally full,” “Tie me!," "Don't put pressure on me.” If the viewer drops a Visa receipt or a used cinema ticket into the bag, it will offer us something in response. At least it won't leave us indifferent.

Its history is outlined by policies of segregation/exclusion. How can one visualize the encounter of the city’s inhabitants; how can he imagine a landscape of exchange that aims to surpass the limits inflicted? In a unique way Maria Costi transforms the buffer zone barrier into a horizon of action where music becomes the calling for reunion. It’s about a soundscape that allows the coexistence of variety difference. Alkis Hadjiandreou

Pierre Delort is a graphic artist so impassioned by urban culture that he sees the city as no one else does. Aware of detail? This is a euphemism. Particularly on Typography which has become the basis of all his work: “I love seeing big things in town: billboards, signs, anything concerned with lettering.” For his poster for Marseille 2013 he used the numbers 4 and 5, very simple geometric forms to design a ... complex artwork. His secret? Have an eye. And follow his vision … to the letter.

Gender, body-type and tastes need to be considered when we think of a new food-concept, a knowing experience that is not just health but also a way to wonder, stimulate appetite and increase curiosity in eating. Therefore I have created a menu that is thought to be open to this everyday perspective, increasing the variety of aromas, color ranges, in an amazing way. Eating flowers with shiny forks and a glass of good wine has always been one of my desires. This menu is a demonstration of the need to be open to a wider perspective of food choices.

I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Hotel Management from Bethlehem University. During my studies I was able to participate in practical French and Spanish cuisine courses. I even had the opportunity to go to the Baleric Menorca Island in Spain for a one-month training course in Spanish cuisine. After I graduated from the BU I started out as a cook at the Jacir Palace InterContinental Bethlehem, then was promoted to Chef A and finally to a Demi Chef. The concept of this menu is to introduce local and traditional Palestinian food to the other cultures.

gastronomija

It is possible to have a modern cuisine which tastes like traditional cuisine. We make a selection of the same ingredients, changing the taste as little as possible. For example for Damian Azorin the best sauce in the world is made from egg yolks. We left them raw and transformed them with potatoes into a foam, added a little eel with garlic and hot chilis, and a touch of smoked duck breast. There are new experimental ways of cooking using chemistry methods but above all respecting the traditional taste of the recipes.

David López is one of the emerging, notable chefs. He is devoted to experiencing, inventing, surprising and making people enjoy his recipes. The “extra bit” comes from his sophisticated and fine touch, in the content as well as in the presentation of his dishes. His work is close to artistic creativity, taking the advantage of the present moment when the cooking world in Spanish cuisine is reaching a peak with the arrival of new aromas, textures and recent development procedures.

The Warrior's Meal is a wine and food course, referred to the Mediterranean area food culture. It aims to convey a culture and a passion for healthy and natural food. The best examples of this culture are without any doubt the traditional meals. In this menu you’ll find traditional meals from Southern Italy, revisited in a more elaborate key, that gives a natural but stylish look to the menu.

This menu is the result of an accurate study as well as a development of cooking techniques in the context of local cuisine from the north-eastern coastal area of Sicily, using local products, but proposing them in an original way. The way of cooking the duckbill, a strait fish par excellence, has been modified according to a campaign promoted by Slow Food entitled “Mangiamoli giusti” (Let’s eat them the right way). The “caponata” is an ancient dish of Spanish origin prepared with peppers. The soup is enriched with “pizzuta” almonds of Avola and black rice. The main dish is the pork-based one enriched by chocolate, meant to be an homage to Modica in the province of Ragusa. The dessert is the modified recipe of “cassatella” flavored with carob, the finest tree.

This one of my first creations, my beginning in the world of the cuisine. As the main ingredient, I have chosen a certain type of anchovy, a very highly appreciated delicacy in the Mediterranean basin for its sea flavor and its soft texture. The dish “Boquerones del corral al vinagre de Jerez” is in honor of “pescaito frito,” a typical dish of Málaga, a very special city for me. It is a metaphor for coupling the sea with the fields, an innovative thing with a traditional thing. ova e edna od moite prvi tvorbi, mojot po~etok vo svetot na kulinarstvoto.

An interesting experience was born as a result of a dramaturgy workshop; this film was the offspring of a surprise when the filmmaker was awarded a grant from the Goethe Institute to produce it. The film revolves around the life of an Indian teapot which has overstepped its cultural boundaries, living in a small kitchen that belongs to an average Egyptian household. The central characters of this film are transcended from mere lifeless objects to humanized entities where their emotions are shown through magic of animation and dialog.

We are inspired by the concept of the “perceptions and vital accesses to and from the head of the human being. The capital of the soul, consciousness… of every human,” as in the application. Metaphorically, we want to stay in contact with the idea of “always ongoing circulation,” not only from the physical point of view, and to offer different links with local culture as well. We chose a rough style both in the drawings and in the animations, using only pen and paper to avoid giving further references.

Margherita is a video that tries to make the most of certain themes and visions which had been developed by Pier Paolo Pasolini in his last testament film Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom. Together with Valentina Restivo, who has re-elaborated many of the movie frames with ink and gouache illustrations on paper, we have moved upstream from the movie’s last uttered word “Margherita” to the present time. This was put into practice by selecting seven youth-oriented tales to outline a contemporary youth model and showing eight young faces that may have flung a whole generation’s sensitivity wide open, this by now overwhelmed by consumerism and indifference.

The missing link between painting and cinema? Video. Which enables Roxane Billamboz to transcend the sacrosanct twenty-four images per second of the seventh art, to bring it out of its frame (with no play on words). The major advantage of digital imagery? Its infinite flux of pixels, capable of exploring, as she wishes, the notions that underlie her approach and nourish her work: light and movement. In other words, video became the ideal tool to express something that she had not found either in cinema or in sculpture. A particular fascination for actresses such as Louise Brooks and Catherine Deneuve inspired her videos where the light is used as a means of deterioration, a manner to reverse the process.

Scan, Pack, Pay and Go London is a world capital of consumer society interwoven with high technology, modern robots that perform routine jobs and efficiently monitor the system. Self-service checkout machines enable easy shopping that often used to be demotivated and tiring. Important conclusions of experts that explore the relationship between human beings and technology emphasize the modern trend in which the allocation of functions is inclined more toward technology than to humans.

JOSÉ MANUEL CARRASCO FUENTES SELECTED BY THE MUNICIPALITY OF MURCIA IZBRAN OD OP[TINA MURSIJA MURCIA/MURSIJA > SPAIN/[PANIJA Having produced Padam (nominated for a Goya Award) he continued with Cosulta 16, participating in national and international festivals and receiving over thirty prizes in his category, including Curt Ficcions and Radio City Valencia among others. His shorts tell us about bittersweet love, lending a tragicomic strength to the characters. The films consist of fast and stressed dialogs and the feeling of danger that occurs when one is in love, especially when the situations of the characters’ lives enhance that threat.

Based on true events, the tragic and forgotten Story of Mimì lives again, thanks to the artist’s efforts and talent. Social commitment, strong ideals, outstanding lyricism and artistic feel are the directions of Clauser’s works.

The audiovisual research conducted up to the present has attempted to thoroughly examine the field of images and speech, following those interruptions that can lead to further spaces of possibility. In this sense that which is commonly recognized today as documentary inquiry unfolds as an imaginary intended as projection toward a new type of reality, re-created, manipulated to consider a presumed everyday reality.

Tick Tock Diner is the latest film by Noel Gálvez. The creation of this film stems from an unfortunate love experience by the same director, which means a pure catharsis gives way to a short full of controversial ideas and beautiful sequences. The time and place is midnight in New York City, specifically at the downtown Tick Tock Diner. Noel Gálvez is an Andalusian short filmmaker who has studied in film schools in Seville, Madrid and New York. He has made some ten shorts and is now making a documentary that he defends as his best work.

To date his films have had minimal or no dialogue, relying on image and sound to tell a story. He constructs narratives from images seen, dreamt, imagined. At present many of his ideas explore themes of relationships with strangers or environments at points of change, dropping façades, creating new ones; and exposing this personal change to the viewer and other characters.

SELECTED BY THE MUNICIPALITY OF BOLOGNA IZBRAN OD OP[TINA BOLOWA BOLOGNA/BOLOWA > ITALY/ITALIJA A while ago I read a book called Zen in the Art of Archery by Eugen Herrigel. In one of the passages he recounts one of the lessons his master taught him. Eugen kept having difficulties in learning how to hit the center of the target with the arrow and felt his abilities were not good enough. So his master told him: “If the arrow was shot with your heart and soul it was a good shot, even if the arrow did not touch the target. But if the shot did not come from your heart, it was a bad shot, even if the arrow perfectly hit the bull’s–eye.” Pred izvesno vreme pro~itav edna kniga pod naslov Zen vo Umetnosta na Strela{tvoto od Juxin Herigel. Vo eden od pasusite toj se prisetuva na ~asovite koi mu gi dr`el u~itelot. Juxin ne mo`el izvesno vreme da go pogodi centarot na metata so strela i smetal deka ne e sposoben za toa. Taka, negoviot u~itel mu rekol “Ako strela{e so srceto i du{ata, }e isfrle{e dobra strela, duri da taa i ne go dopre{e centarot na metata. No, ako strelata ne doa|a od srceto, toa e lo{a strela, duri i ako taa sovr{eno go pogodi centarot na metata.”

An investigation into the interiors of places, people and cultures. The “place” conceived as a state of mind, physical state of an epochal, geographic and sociological period of time. Starting from an introspective look on today’s contemporary society. The sane and insane aspects which formed humanity. Love in greed we trust constriction: an identity. Apparently feminine highlighted by a veil of a nun, but the vest is of a priest. A static and anxious scenario. Immobility in movement. Praying.

In my recent work I have been re-examining interpersonal communication in the context of the general situation of redefining universal values, man-society relations, consumerism, politics, states, and families. The element of self-reference is also present—a re-examination of the self in inner or extensive contexts of old values which decay, thus creating new ones. The video Fantastico deals with the ways of creating myths and using them for the purpose of “national awakening” and how the people who were on the margins of history get new meanings and values. It is an ironic comic story searching for the historical “missing link.”

Every film is a new discovery, a new window on the world. I’m not making films to impose my point of view. It is simply a question of seeking answers. Sometimes we don’t find them. As human life is never linear, it never concludes with a single answer and only one point of view. The horizon is always there in the silence of the human being and counts more than a single answer.

SELECTED BY THE INDEPENDENT FORUM FOR THE ALBANIAN WOMEN The core idea of creating the film was to link two complementary mediums: architecture and film. Architecture and film, space and time, are both extensions of human perception. The category of time is the thing which transforms the three-dimensional perception of space in architecture into one specific four-dimensional sensation. Considering space as the essential element that defines architecture in its various ways of perception, we were inspired by Le Corbusier’s thought: “The first proof of our perception is the space we have occupied.”

If we assert that people consist of a collection of individuals who share history, tradition and customs, then we can say the same thing about cities, which would cease to have that particular “flavor” were they to be inhabited by others. We are the smog we breathe, the sliver of sky glimpsed from the bottom of an alley or the cold which numbs us as we are waiting for the tram. In this short film, cities are interpreted by actors who submit themselves to a medical examination, designed to open the orifices of the face, in order to “sense” the upcoming Biennial.

Materiali Scenici results from the gathering of several artistic skills (audio-makers, video-makers, performers, dancers, directors, photographers, producers) interested in the different possibilities of performance social, or in other words, the artistic experience possible and necessary to a particular group in a specific context; interested in developing a kind of theatre that deals with the artistic and relational quality that emerge during a creative process.

This video features dynamic, multimedia environments that submerge the viewer and offer a fresh look at the person and time movement. Time, a divine mysterious fear of mortals, becomes an active entity in the universe of perceptions, multiplying the artistic experience into an incalculable number of visual impacts that choreograph an extended final sensation.

Kitty & Júlio The point of departure for this film was the narrative device, that is, an endeavor to experiment with a relationship of complete desynchronism between sound and image. The narrative proper is extremely simple, a bit like a road movie in which the story may be derived from the places themselves or the path the characters take. I wasn’t particularly concerned with the plot; on the contrary, the idea was for the story to be linear, to interfere as little as possible with the mechanisms of sound/image perception or attention that I really wanted to try out. Kiti i Hulio Po~etokot na ovoj film e narativniot metod, koj pretstavuva obid da se eksperimentira so odnosot na celosna nesinhroniziranost pome|u slikata i zvukot.

Goozor The artist aimed to make a movie expressing the alienation that we are living in because of Global changes and the effects of these changes in his city, Alexandria. The movie is about a group of people. They don’t know one another but they have the same feelings: alienation and loneliness. When you end up suffering from loneliness, with no one to talk to, there may be someone near you, who you don’t know but who is in the same situation. You never exchange a word and you each go your own separate way.

Kassandra Alogoskoufi is an artist focused on the unspeakable. Through a unique handwriting, sometimes rampant imagination, she unfolds minor secrets of human behavior. Ancient fables are like Ariadne’s clew in her hands. Writings should be emerged and afterwards delivered to a next generation. Solitude and aggressiveness are forms of depression that somehow the fantasy of writings can heal. People’s chains can break. Kassandra is always there to write down the breaking of the ice.

My poems try to go deep in that hidden part of my soul which connects me with others’ inner world. They deal with pain, dreams and hard features of life. I’ve tried to improve some forms in Arabic poetry like “documentary poetry” which are inspired by catching all kinds of beauty—even bitter beauty—just like photos. Some of my poems are based on the interaction with the theatre of the absurd. I’ve presented some poems with music and painting. I believe in poetry, in one of its rules as a sensuous document of truth in face of injustice.

MAKEDONIJA Through the eyes of a child whose family is involved in a financial scandal, the short story Waves focuses on the social and political phenomena occurring in countries in transition and their immediate impact on the family. The narrator perceives, but cannot fully grasp the disturbing events surrounding her. The story, whose characters and events are fictional, is inspired by narratives presented in the media, and attempts to show the overlooked perspective of the tragedy of the guiltless.

Waves (2009) The morning we left, I remember my mother woke me up very early. I didn't want to get up, so mommy put my orange jacket on over my pajamas, then she put some socks on me and had such a hard time pulling on my boots that she twisted my foot a little. Picking me up in her arms, she carried me to the front door, where a large man in a thick coat and a black turtleneck stood waiting. “Let’s go,” my mother told him, and he picked up the two big suitcases leaning against the wall and followed my mother to the main gate. I wanted to ask where we were going and whether my mother remembered to bring my teddy bear and my diary, but I just couldn't open my mouth or unglue the eyelashes on my left eye.

LITERATURA

The work entitled In mezzo al varco (Halfway through the Breach) is aimed at reflecting upon existence as an open door onto life, but also as a precious and fugitive transit moment. The first poem is about the opening to life. The second text displays the concept of door as an opening towards the life of other human beings. The third poem suggests, instead, the passage from life to another form of existence which coincides with the maximum opening of the seven doors of the soul.

Poetess and actress, the theatre becomes in her input a personal and recognizable poetic search, on the verse to be considered in the voice, in the rhythm, as the necessity to give body and breath to every word, that, as in a primeval rhapsody, gives a particular pulse to poems, towards alliteration and anaphora. A very sensorial experience, where, while we listen her, not only our ears, but our eyes, our skin are captured by the mantra of rhythmical images.

Forgetfulness engraved upon the skin in the cavity between the shoulders and the wings. You push, slowly, towards the edge. You come, slowly, towards the reeling edge.

NIKY D’ATTOMA SELECTED BY ARCI BARI/IZBRAN OD ARCI BARI BARI/BARI > ITALY/ITALIJA The emotional landscape in Children of the Shadow has a precise name: Ozersk. It’s the name of one of those towns in Russia which were strictly controlled for their closeness to nuclear plants, during the Cold War, and in 1957 there was a nuclear military disaster. Here, Ozersk comes to be a symbol of a society ruled by violence, lies, and pre-war tension—where there’s no room for humanity and feelings. The clinic looks like a factory where sanity and insanity are just statistics. So the lovers, a portrait of a suffering generation, live on the edge between life and death, order and madness; and maybe the explosion of their atomic heart will overcome insanity and help them to reach the purity of love.

Children of the Shadow (he) Here we are. The generation between nothingness and the unknown, alone before the pc monitor which reminded us of unlived things. We get keys like a keyboard on our chest and neon lights like roads in our eyes. In our lungs: who knows, Chernobyl plume, hashish, ignorance. But nothing hurts more than our parents: an enormous number of grown-ups spied on us without understanding a thing about us, until “us” got its meaning lost and we broke up.

Displacements I don’t know at which side of the frontier I am. I have been running away aimlessly for hours, lost in this moor. The landscape is neither from here nor from there; these trees, those birds, what language do they speak? The sun falls over the world heavy and exact, as if it knew about justice. There is an invisible line painted on this desert, that crosses it through a point I do not know, and this line is the frontier between my life and my death. The powerful white light doesn’t stop time, it doesn’t point out any direction.

Desplazamientos (Displacements) is a tale that gathers significant fragments of life. It is the collection of twenty-three stories that talk about displaced characters, or characters that are moving around through the geography of our time: exiles, foreigners, immigrants; their meditations, their acts, their fights for survival and dignity. Misunderstanding is the rule. Communication is the exception. Love is the miracle. So: Writing for love. Writing to understand the world. Writing for transformation.

Desplazamientos (Izmestuvawa) e skazna, sublimat na zna~ajni fragmenti od `ivotot.

Maria Ioannou has won awards in local and international writing competitions and her work often combines text and image, sound and other art forms. The Gigantic Fall of an Eyelash is a charmingly descriptive “cinematic” narrative of conflicting impressions, a rhythmical and concrete account of a suspended one-second experience. The speaking voice revolts, turning her personal reality into a text, while slicing it into subtexts and words, thus mixing the momentary with the eternal. Maria Thoma A second. That’s approximately how long it takes for an eyelash to fall from a height of one meter and 65 centimeters, excluding of course external factors of suspension and other, inaccurately measured powers.

There is no language then but one: love, for nothing else can, in all colors, plant our trees. I somehow started remembering poets I have read and of their poems memories flowed freely in different spectrums: cultures, languages, colors, techniques and poetry visions.

l Will Not Bathe When you give yourself over to the seduction of water And I hear the colored birds of shampoo bubbles Rise in the sky of your body, I remain at the edge of my bed, Feet dangling, the ants of pleasure Nibbling at my toes, Scurrying in the grass of our room… NO I will not bathe… Where the droplets of your saliva were scattered On my face, The tiny diamonds Gathered like a herd of newly weaned lambs Sent to pasture for the first time In a frenzy of enthusiastic bleats.

“How do you do,” he said. It would be an exaggeration to say that she actually heard cannon fire, fireworks and bells, or saw water playing in floodlit fountains, but she stared at him as though she had just been hit over the head with a rubber mallet. “My God,” was what she said. He gave her a crooked smile that turned up more one side than the other. When she awoke it was getting light, and she was so sure that he could not have gotten out of bed without her noticing that she thought it must all have been a dream. In deep disappointment she turned on to her side and fell asleep again. When she next awoke, she became aware that it had occurred. The sensations of her body, the wetness, the smell of the sweet semen all told her that it had actually happened. Why didn’t he spend the night in her bed then?

Poetry & Resonance Poetry is like the sea, if poems speak for themselves. But this visual, fragile image of the wor(l)d that sounds, also makes us “think” differently and keeps going in life “naturally,” as human beings, don’t split in nations or sciences. We can meet each other in the water of art and achieve a balanced synthesis in imagination, thinking and speech. It is in our destiny to share; culture, environment, ourselves. Experiencing a not native language, Hellenic, is the final step. First is observing.

In Between is a novel which incorporates the idea of finding the sequence where the characters’ home, the Other, religion and philosophy can make an unbreakable unity placed beyond obstructions of time. This sequence exists in between two people, two moments, between reality and fiction. This is a novel which explores different narrative techniques placing the story of three characters in a very unusual structure expanding the literary concept in many diverse directions.

In so doing he casts a penetrating eye at life from the various vantage points of eternal love, pure sex, petty politics and friendship, bereft of the peace of mind one is hopelessly always looking for.

Desperate Writing of a Man Who’s Lost His Memory This isn’t the desperate writing of a man faced with death, but of a man who accompanies the crickets through the winding folds of the city. Lisbon is a bas-relief that flows into an underground beach, it sways at night with it’s face studded with cars, it’s a place in a state of transition, with no flowers beneath the tongue or orange orchards behind the eyes. […] Between the dead and the sold, a love run over at a red light and the shorthand of the vandals, the wind blows on the beggar’s feet, like red roots carried over to the new avenues, lined with withered trees along the widened roads and social fabric. […]

Eat the Page, This is My Body is the invitation: the poetic word as ritual machine, the re-activation of a language that, after the loss of Sense, aims at a plurality of senses. The secular liturgy of writing chooses a meticulous design of (de)composition—the anagram, the ambiguity of homophones, babble, are bacteria worming their way into the material of language, disintegrating and re-integrating the molecules of signs and sounds. A holy operation, this “cancerous metonymy of language” that, despite the fracture of sense, maintains forms, structures, an architecture of limbs that can still be recognized after the collapse. A barbarian statue carefully and patiently reassembled from irrelevant fragments. A ritual of (re)composition, a “pinpoint of sense,” waiting. Alessandro Melis

Kevin Saliba knows no frontiers: in his words and deeds, he is forever searching for absolutes far and wide. Delighted with the munificent freedom of metaphoric expression, he has sensed, like a newborn he-goat, that the earth and the skies are boundless, as he has never stumbled upon any reef. It is easy for a young man who—like many before him, has painstakingly brooded over Nietzsche, mulled upon Aldous Huxley’s reflections on The Doors of Perception [...] and read up on free love [...]—to call out.

LITERATURE

Olivia Pierrugues confronts literature and composes something “moving and discontinuous.” This Journey into the Unusual that she is showing at the Biennial is thus only a fragment of a much larger whole, Betweenhereandthere. Why that one? Because it’s the first one she wrote: the original fragment. Because there she addresses all the forms—poetic prose, sound poetry, diary, short story—because from one paragraph to the next, she passes from the “I” to the “she,” to the “we,” to the “you” because she is seeking her place there. Because inside, you can find phrases such as this one: “And the adjectives abound, sir, what should one do?” Write, obviously. Again and again. Tirelessly. Because even if these words escape and slide, like the world around her, they remain her most faithful allies.

LITERATURE

Società Cooperativa Hermitage is a cooperative of artists that was founded in 2007, each of them with a different talent and different experiences. Each project reflects on this pluralism, theatre, visual arts, photography, all participants in the artistic development of the project. Each time one member holds the responsibility of leading a new ensemble. The archetypal space of solitude involves literature, plastic arts, acting and visual arts and is based on the myth of the minotaur and endeavors to place the single spectator in a space where he can meet the depth of his solitude through the encounter with the solitude of the beast.

Her poetry reflects socially-critical and sociological topics. She concentrates on her environment, Slovenia and the three periods of transition: Yugoslavia, Slovenia, and Europe, on the human and on the research of the human’s inner code in relation to the outer world. Here she introduces her cycle of poems called The Seven Doors, which consists of the same number of poems or symbols, seven points/doors which represent the entrance and exit for different art languages of individuals, groups, societies, which flow into one another, but at the same time stay true to themselves.

“Angham” is a term that means the plural of “Naghma,” which means the music mode. This designation is primarily to focus on the plurality of the music performed. Since 2001 this occurs most often as a trio (lutenist: Béchir Gharbi, violinist: Mohamed Gharbi, percussionist: Nasredine Echebli) based on the interpretation of various styles of instrumental music, then creating a language musical inspiration: Maghreb, Ottoman, Orient, etc. It is in the spirit of a world music that the ensemble from Tunisia navigates, open to Europe and the whole world.

The nature of music is the power to express emotion. This project, a mix of “electro rhythm-live instrument symbiosis music,” by contrast is intended to evoke extra-musical ideas, images in the mind of the listener by musically representing a scene, image or mood that reflects our inner lives, us and (ourselves) in a social environment. Since absolute music cannot have any external meaning, the meaning must be derived from the very essence of the music itself. It is one of the most effective means of impressing the heart with spiritual DISAMBIGUATION: truth.

MARIOS JOANNOU ELIA SELECTED BY THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION AND CULTURE IZBRAN OD MINISTERSTVOTO ZA OBRAZOVANIE I KULTURA NICOSIA/NIKOZIJ > CYPRUS/KIPAR The theme of the Biennial, the “Seven Gates of Skopje,” has been associated with the three gates in Nicosia (Famagusta, Pafos and Kyrenia Gate). These are the only entries through the Venetian walls which completely encircle the old city. Bearing in mind the legend of Skopje, a myth that identifies this city, a sequence of musical sceneries has been developed, embraced by visual elements. The subjects of these sceneries are symbolically connected to a specific gate in Nicosia. Temata na Bienaleto, Sedumte Porti na Skopje se povrzuva so trite porti vo Nikozija (Famagusta, Pafos i Portata Kirenija), ovie se edninstvenite vlezovi vo Venecijanskite yidini, koi celosno go opkoluvaat stariot grad.

These four met at Promusica (a course in contemporary music) which they finished with the desire to play some “very basic and rock ’n’ roll,” far, very far from the elitism inherent in schools. The bass is huge, the drums metronomically wild and as the guitar slides through unending ecstatic riffs, the singing (in Spanish and English) does not resemble anything anywhere else.

My music consists of in-betweens; here there’s a silence that I want to portray. It is like origami, the paper mediates the shape, not the other way around. Often the tones form looping patterns. But life is far away from repetition and music can’t be only nice, especially the type you cannot dominate. So the space in-between is a bridge to other worlds, where I flow with the unpredictable, listening until feeling nothing. Do we have no choice but to choose or is it the contrary?

M-Pex is a project that allies the Portuguese guitar to electronic music, and dares to explore musical landscapes never before visited. Imagine the crystalline sound of a Portuguese guitar.

Shams and Friends of the Sea was at first formed by Khaled Shams, Khaled Wafik and Ahmed Hafez in 1993 in order to produce an alternative non-commercial music where ordinary love songs and dancing songs play a small part. The band has developed since then with musicians and friends, in numerous concerts inside and outside Alexandria, their hometown, but due to travel issues they stopped in 2005. In 2008 the three friends decided to start over, joined by Magdi Boustan. Now their songs have a soft Alexandrian atmosphere and as always, are about people, life, friendship and their hometown.

The art of dance, in the case of Aerites, is not only about “morphology,” “type of movement” or “means of expression.” The group focuses on experimenting and producing performances based on theoretical, dramaturgic and movement research. The aim of Aerites Dance Company is to create artistic actions as a result of the synergy between dance, performing arts, poetry, theatrical practice and new technology, in particular graphic design and video animation.

The process of creative change is explained in a lecture-performance where dance performance is mixed with hardcore business selling and business lecture is mixed with emotive dance. Because art and business are not two separate worlds, you decide if the result of their interaction is worth supporting.

Fictive Situations The performers are connected to the instruments’ electronic network. They can produce sound by approaching each other and further, by establishing any form of physical contact like touching, hitting, kissing, etc. The sound that they produce is also running through their bodies in the form of electricity, thus it is causing a rather painful experience. The gradual “virtualization” of social relations is connoting physical presence and physical contact with a rather uncomfortable moment. However, the simple personal interaction is what we all long for, despite the possibility of getting hurt.

“In ancient Greek theatre, all the spectators knew the story and what mattered was how the producer chose to re-direct the tale” dixit Charles-Eric Petit, Artistic Director of the project Our Dallas, adding that “one rapidly became aware of the fact that Dallas was 90% Shakespeare, 10% the Bible.” Thus, here we are: a tale known to all, without ever having really seen it (Dallas), where the risks, unalterable, go from the power of money, through love, without forgetting either the religious dimension or the ancient Greek choir, here replaced by the radio. Transmission and heritage? Ask the Ewing and Barnes families… Because what is better than a recognized territory for true experimentation? And to produce work of the theatre, that place of the living.

Trained at the Maurice Bejart school, Christophe Garcia created his own company in 2000 in Marseille, a town he discovered during a tour. Barely ten years later he is presenting L’Heure du bain, a show written around the notions of intimacy and purification. The approach, a collective one (propositions made both by the dancers and by the composer, Laurier Rajotte) based on improvisation, aims to “tell stories with bodies”: the very essence of his work. With the desire to reach that degree of poetry which with him is more important than everything else: make the body speak.

Polyanthos is the name of a dark and inhuman city. The citizens of Polyanthus feel lonely. They‘ve lost their feelings and their emotions. They don’t see, smell, hear or touch each other. All communication has failed. A “traveler” will pass by the city and he will wake them up. By then Polyanthos will be transformed into a new city full of light, flowers and colors. People will start to communicate and love each other. They will be happy and finally calm. Their senses will be released. Polyanthos (Poliantos) e ime na eden mra~en i ne~ove~en grad. @itelite na Poliantos se ~uvstvuvaat osameno. Gi zagubile ~uvstvata i emociite. Ne mo`at da se vidat, da se slu{aat, da se pomirisaat, nitu pak da se doprat. Ne uspeva nikakva komunikacija. “Patnikot” }e mine pokraj gradot i }e gi razbudi.

Four women, a box and some rags. No sense of time, space or identity. Who are these women? Where are they? What are they supposed to be doing? Multiple doors, fragmented memories and a multitude of choices form this journey’s path of possibilities. But there lies the quandary: which memories to choose, which memories to discard? Only one thing is certain: each memory is married to the language of the senses these women speak; the language of humanity, understood by all. êtiri èni, edna kutija i nekolku partali.

In sad sam/almost 6/ Matija Ferlin examines a child’s mind, free and unconditioned. In the course of growing up, the consciousness of existing generates numerous “terrorizing” facts that emerge from social conditions and limitations. All fictive characters from childhood become enemies. The result of the fact that we have to grow up creates imperfections in our lives, but these imperfections also make our ways of living special and individual.

Effetto Larsen was founded in 2007 by Matteo Lanfranchi to promote projects of research on performance media. Our research perspective is always looking for simplicity springing from the body. Aggregazione (Gathering) is a project about human relationships, analyzed through their mechanisms. The project focuses mainly on human relationships, the single person/environment relationship and all those actions through which we build our own reality.

The work is performed by artists who realize stunts and dances in public spaces. This kind of performance creates a decontextualization of the “un-space” used by workers during their job, so "Work-in-Progress" becomes "Dance-inProgress.” In this project the process called “messing signs” happens physically in the space and is realized by altering pictographic language that incites the public to exult “Rock On!”

By rejecting the teaching of drama schools, the alternative was to begin a self-made journey (our point of strength), addressed to professional performing, carrying out personal artistic research and comparison between the members of the company. It’s a theatre made of people for other people: the contents deal with the human race, relationships and human feelings.

The performance Throwing Rocks shows bodies, whose faces mainly remain hidden or invisible, while the spectator is triggered into a close relationship with his/her own materiality. With a lot of enthusiasm and curiosity, identification is questioned through means of self quotation as well as through loss and absence of control.

Mountain Language This production is the result of a theatre experiment researching new and different forms of theatricality via the untraditional use of space and the special communication with the spectators. It is also a new reading of Pinter’s play in the light of today’s globalization of taste, art, values and—even—food. Some basic questions are raised: is freedom a universal value or does it differ from one culture to the other? Does the military system serve freedom or what? How can one keep one’s own “language” under the force of oppression?

Renée Adorée The action takes place in a locale to which the public does not have direct access. The action is projected outwards from within a hermetically sealed box that inverts the principle of the darkroom. Here a kind of live cinema is being created, preserving the original sense of the indirect. We are in the presence of a body that never becomes a character, where emotions can be projected. We are faced with a contemplative body constructed out of the movement and symbolism of silent cinema.

Renée Adorée Dejstvoto se slu~uva na edno mesto do koe javnosta nema direkten pristap. Dejstvoto se proektira vo pravec nanadvor od hermeti~ki zatvorena kutija koja go prevrtuva principot na temnata komora.

IZVEDUVA~KI UMETNOSTI

The script of this theatrical play is a combination of the character that Chara Kolaiti created, Anna Goula, and the theme of the Skopje Biennial, “The Seven Gates.” It is dramatized for theatre and the international audience. The script is based on the tragedy of Aeschylus, Epta epi Thivas (7 Against Thebes). This drama, by Chara Kolaiti, is a modern version of the tragedy where time and place are imaginary.

The Crisis, the feminine thing, the simplicity loaded with power, the family, the lack of communication, states of mind before life and death. The stage has allowed us to create, by playing with opposite images, two different ways: a real level which pretends to swing in an unreal world of symbols and signifiers presenting, in an audio-visual way, the construction of an “everything” which guides us to the end of an emotive story. An autumn work or maybe winter, but never of summer or spring. A way of telling beyond the own text and movement. The dissolution of the thought.

Mimaia Teatro has been created by the puppeteer and theatre director Dora Cantero as the result of an artistic interest in objects and puppet theatre for adults. Her work is based on the experimental treatment of everyday objects, transforming them into other things to produce visual metaphors that give a poetical dimension to the theatrical fact.

Queens of Missed Opportunities is a story about Little Red Riding Hood who never managed to save her grandmother Cinderella, who never got her second shoe, and Sleeping Beauty, who never woke up. It is a story about crossroads we never recognize, changes which we don’t have enough courage to make, and opportunities we miss every day… This is a story about Queens and one opportunity that is always being missed.

NATIONAL THEATRE OF KOSOVO

The Story about a Moment… is a performance which shows the deconstruction of a moment, a time fragment. In one part of the performance the moment lasts longer and has an emotional component and in the others it’s very short, meaningless, empty. The sound is an activator and a reason for movement but it’s not directly related to the dancer on the stage. The performance shows a playful way of deconstruction of time through movement, showing the relativity of time and its dependence on human attention and emotions.

The performance Kill the Baby Save the Food oscillates between submission and revolt, bringing to light the work of authority and servitude. First of all, three dancers walk in single file. Then, acting under constraint, each tries to find a way to destroy the framework and to free body and mind.

The work is based on a cross artistic collaboration in order to find new expressions and further possibilities for stage art. By working in collaboration, there is added new inspiration to one’s personal way providing the outcome with more layers which can be interpreted in different ways. This is another important element: the possible open interpretation—to create a work that invites reflection without forcing one’s personal point of view on the spectator.

Step of Faith is a solo dance performance that I have been developing since early 2008. It has evolved through a process of collapsing together and deconstructing a range of set phrases and it uses improvisation as a strategy to further develop the material in performance. My practice has been inspired by the following text: “(And) I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year: ‘Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.’ And he replied: ‘Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God. That shall be better than a light and safer than a known way.’” Minnie Louise Haskins

Ova par~e delo se sostoi od svita koja gi opi{uva op{testvenite i ~ovekovite vrski vo edna mnogu aktivna metropola. Postoi qubov, no postojat i intrigi. Ova e osnovniot koncept za ovaa svita. Eden poseben nastan vo mojata dr`ava. Nalikuva na dominacija na prosvetluvaweto vo koja konceptite se vo antagonizam so globalizacijata vo koja `iveeme. Go zamisliv ova delo kako poraki za qubov i mir koi go vdahnuvaat svetot.

This installation (shown in the video) is a way of storytelling through experience. The character Mephisto symbolizes freedom and the notion of rebelling against authority, as Lucifer in Milton’s Paradise Lost. While the visitor moves through the installation space, he/she follows the story in a labyrinth while trying to find the exit. The story where Mephisto tries to escape from Hades and subsequently travels from Helsinki to Athens trying to find the man/vessel that will give him corporeality.

5-APES CONTAINER MOVEMENT FOR PRIMITIVE APPROACH + GUESTS SELECTED BY THE BJCEM JURY/IZBRANI OD @IRITO NA BJCEM As a small community of artists, we find the community a free metaphorical space where singles share ideas to find alternative solutions, giving a possibility to simple individuals to have an effective weight in social decisions. How Much is Enough? is a game/performance/symposium/culinary event that stresses the absurdity of the contemporary search for exponential growth and the consequent lack of interest in quality. The result is a set of social problems typical of our age: from food production and consumption to environment management, from economy development to mass media information or art production.

A dream contains all wishes, ideas, thoughts, desires and other things that distinguish man from other creatures. But dreams also distinguish one man from another and everyone has their own private dreams. Some of those dreams draw on reality, while others stay just ideas in the world of unconsciousness and can’t be brought to the real world. When reality suffocates dreams, dreamers aim for another reality that is vast enough not to actualize dreams, but at least to enjoy living and seeing them.

This work summarizes the relationship between the world inside and outside the artist; it tries to give its own vision—rich environment of paradoxes and contradictions. These have prompted the artist to convey this sensibility through the portrait which expresses nothing but different reactions.

For the project Riverintoriverintoriver I have mixed the waters of eight European rivers: Vistula, Rhine, Po, Seine, Thames, Elbe, Danube and Vardar. I started by collecting a tank of water from the Vistula which I poured into the Rhine, then I took another tank to be poured into the Po, and so on until each river contained the water of the others.

DIMA ALHOURANI SELECTED BY THE SABREEN ASSOCIATION FOR ARTISTIC DEVELOPMENT IZBRANA OD SABREEN ASOCIJACIJATA ZA UMETNI^KI RAZVOJ JERUSALEM/ERUSALIM > PALESTINE/PALESTINA This video work, I Am Making Art Too is a dialog with John Baldessari’s artwork I Am Making Art, 1971. The apparent artwork blocked behind a curtain, and the term refers to the practice of art in the prevention, blocking conditions and exclusion. How the technical art practice looks behind the dust of war, isolation and neglect. I am trying to make something dynamic within a still setting or hidden by a chador, in this case, which is used as an example here for an inflicted fashion at the present time. The work is about life and all things we hide behind. And the essence of the fake from the real and how hiding something is a substitute for rising centralism.

A young Spanish video-artist presents Triptico: Figures, a film consisting of three parts. Mr. Augusto is a kind man, helpful and courteous. He lives near a park where children play. At the end of his workday, Mr. Augusto has shameful nightmares. Based on a Nazi propaganda film by Fritz Hippler, Der ewing Jude: this is about how images are subject to our will, and how the artist guides the viewer in his vision. From the manipulation of a sequence of images, we obtained three different sequences with opposite meanings. It is a critical reflection of images from the media.

Awakening harbors the possibility to aspire change. A change of our perceptions such as the state of sleep bound to that of waking, and even more so in super-waking. A state of advanced conscience that leads towards mental and even physical mutations. These mutations are expressed through an instinctive and intensive painting gesture. A visceral liberating act taking possession of the mind, becoming itself a core by means of obsessive and serial repetition of the sign, stain, blob of color and dripping.

For the last eighteen years Macedonia has been in transition. The feeling and anticipation of crossing over is palpable. A state that we constantly try to overcome so that we reach “the other side.” Now, is “the other side” really that different? Will a new world reveal itself to us? Is there such a thing as “the other side”? Red Transit equalizes both sides: the way we were and who we envision to be. In-between is a long dark corridor paved with a red carpet.

One of the main aims of my work is to integrate the visitor into the artistic process. It is a way of underlining that the artwork does not exist without him or her. The visitor is, therefore, not only acting as mere a spectator, but is also invited to look at things s/he already knows, in a different way. The intention is that the visitor question his or her rights in respect to the piece. I like to use sound because of its capacity to completely occupy a space and to integrate the visitor’s body by giving a notion of time and a sense of memory, as part of the creative process.

The end of time, the end of a life, the end of a reign. Everything, everybody arrives, advances to its end, a bit more every day. Here we are dealing with this notion of finality, not in the highest sense, but as a rupture. This rupture is the one of the human consciousness and its reality. Escape from the city is necessary and in my opinion it’s system causes its end. To continue as a day comes when the meows of the citizens will echo louder than the hooting of the Earth.

He aims to create a state of mental balance and mobility based on the creation of a new type of balance and form relationships through awareness of new relationships in the normal forms of relations or the creation of a special kind of magic.

Temporary Art is a series of crayon drawings on the street that will self-erase after a few days. The artist uses motives from the infantile world without a previously prepared concept for the drawings. She is spontaneously working and integrating walls, holes or lines on the street, placing them into a new context. The basis of the work is a parallel to children's street games and traffic signs painted on the street. The goal is to remind grownups that they have forgotten how to play.

SELECTED BY THE BJCEM JURY/IZBRAN OD @IRITO NA BJCEM Using different types of media Chris Bierl plays with phenomena of our world. Sometimes scientifically examining, sometimes psychologically scrutinizing, he continuously searches for thesis and antithesis, rise and fall, motion and stillness and thus finds the sketches to the world and his performances of the process in the current range of interaction concerning arts, science and society. “A mutation still” seems thereby to be an appropriate description of his works.

My Home... is an artwork consisting of a baggage of forms which have emerged as time goes by, a collection of drawings and sculptures realized with objects found in situ; their setup is determined from the always-new experience of living a place. The sculptural gesture with its compulsion suggests a certain idea of stability, the sense of protection and belonging that can be felt in the experience of living in a space together with our closest objects—the constellation of our primary relations.

Glow Kiss This video shows two people kissing. We only see their mouths and occasionally someone’s eyes and neck. My aim is to explore the elimination of the physical form of the bodies, reduce them to a sensorial plane, eliminate their forms in space, so that the image presented did not deceive the viewer, but was presented to him as a fraud or moment of transgression. Azap! (As Zoon as Possible) This is a piece composed of twenty electric fly-catchers positioned in such a way as to create an enclosed square. Since it is installed on the floor, so that its structure can be seen, it creates a zone in the space that is simultaneously forbidden and signaled.

Unconditional Infinity The greatness of the creation, its value and quality originates from the author’s artfulness in penetrating the soul of the theme. “Beauty: the adjustment of all parts ... proportionately so that one cannot add or subtract or change without impairing the harmony of the whole” (L.B. Alberti). For the soul is the reflection of feelings. Characters recaptured in their different emotional states is a motive for a creation which all-embarrassingly will present the complexity of love. Love as an emotional state, as reality, as ideology, as a myth... as infinity.

In Neol(eat)hic Age, Emanuel chooses to present the relationship between the signifier and the signified in an unconventional manner. He combines the form of a well-known Maltese Neolithic statuette representing an obese squatting figure—said to signify the goddess of fertility—with the form of a hamburger. Viewers from other parts of the world may actively interpret the work in a different manner based on their own cultural backgrounds and experiences. Art authorizes the audience to engage in new interpretations and possibly “create” their own “work” as they view Emanuel’s pieces.

Package—industrial and marketing technique, that contains, protects, identifies and relives selling and distribution of products to be consumed. However, its formal pureness contains much more than we think. Inbox-Outbox is one of those projects which animate and include the space as an invincible element in the final projects and looking through its entrances leads us to some unexpected, different world. Inside, I express my own deepest irony through photography. The photography of urban chaos and unsolved characteristics concerning our environment. This art I will direct towards the potentials of the “ugliness” which is part of the everyday condition that is caused by “man” himself.

A person carries out her common behaviors, covered in the smoke of a habitual ambience. Sitting on a sofa, the smoke transforms her proper existence until she disappears. This series belongs to the project Volutes, where the general idea is smoke used as a plastic element. The artist uses the support of the smoke to claim solitude and even isolation from the involuntary lives of the personages. Inquietude, inconvenience and disorientation are some of the spectator’s reactions when observing the photos.

The basis of her work is garbage, different influences from texts written by modern artists and from gray, not just as a color but as a metaphor as well.

Two photography diptychs, Passage to the Infinite is inspired by L’art de rêver (The Art of Dreaming) by Carlos Castaneda. The two models are plunged face to face in water, the revealer where the models show something which does not belong to them (no longer?). And if the surface of the water—the frontier?—is still visible, the verticality of the portraits refers here to spirituality, to the question of the soul; or further hides the reasons possible. Until it renders this passage to the infinite impossible? For you to decide... Dve fotografski diptiha, Passage to the Infinite (Premin do beskrajnoto) se rodi kako inspiracija od L’art de rêver (Umetnosta da se sonuva) od Karlos Kastaneda.

From observations of landscapes or architectural elements at night, I distill out forms, keeping only the essential, tending towards abstraction. The goal is not to represent what the eye can see, but what the mind understands. Black, sometimes with cold colors, sometimes using a glaze, brings a meditative state, allowing the viewer to enter into the painting, to forget the world and to create his own space-time.

In this performance I am presenting the opening of the Seven Gates, according to the legend of the city of Skopje. The sounds and movements that the performers make is actually the struggle between the Macedonian hero and the giant head. It is the sound of the hero’s spear as an instrument of opening the gates and releasing the head of the curse from the evil magician.

From the “door” element it was inevitable to proceed to the “house” element, as an intimate space and one linked to identity, and from here to the dimension of the “city.” Sometimes the “doors” most difficult to open are not those of the city but those of our own “houses.” I have decided to represent, through twelve engravings, the individual and his will to open up.

Retention of reminiscences such as the shards of past eras. Mementos buried in the earth over time. Traces of existence are arranged in fluid image constellations. The flow of time is observed, collected and acquires thereby a tangible presence, an imprint of an accumulation of fleeting moments. Spatial voids and temporal pauses reflect the potential and reverberate elusive transitions in a status of hovering.

The title ??? is justified by the curiosity and some (initial) incomprehension on the part of the reader… By deliberately leaving out information, the intention is to force the reader to interpret each panel and draw his or her own conclusions. The purpose is to narrate an event without a protagonist, although this protagonist is present and crucial for the plot. The theme is an incident where someone is run over; all the ensuing actions are transmitted from the point of view of the victim.

Two independently taken formal portraits are merged together creating a composite photograph where sitters appear to have shared the same moment in time. Many of the subjects exist as strangers in real life, however the gestures and exchanges within the picture imply a fictitious relationship.

Dans les temps (Into Times) approaches the question of time in its plurality and complexity, in relation with the public’s perception. The piece realizes its distortion through a shift between the visual and sound. Time becomes elastic and interferes with the spectator’s spirit. Dans les temps puts the metronome within a new reinterpreted space-time. The spectator-listener is therefore no longer projected “in the time” but “into times.” Partially inspired by Reno Vatin’s text.

Photographs shouldn’t be confined only to their content, just as arts shouldn’t be confined only to beauty, where the notion of beauty is connected with liking without any interest. Photographs, showing fragility of the surface or the real texture of an object, represent details in unusual compositions. Complete aesthetic enjoyment is obtained only by those who manage to liberate themselves from the link with an image of the projected object. Releasing them from the need to transmit information, the author separates them from the object itself and emphasizes their form.

Animalz is an experimental short film whose structure is punctuated by successive changes in choreography and stage setting. It starts out from a choreographic analysis of the body and t he human/animal behavior, in which the sixteen performers, aged between eight and fourteen, from the urban youth break-dance company B3, Brighton England, were encouraged to reveal the animal hidden within in their energetic performances. In the video, a first environment, domestic and familiar, inhabited by shapeless bodies that carry out everyday and ironic actions is combined with a second abstract and metaphorical environment.

Animalz e eksperimentalen kratok film so vidlivi posledovatelni promeni vo postavuvaweto na koreografijata i scenata.

It belongs to ORIGAMI, a project where he works right at the moment; Daza leaves painting and uses papers and oil on canvas.

Temporary, solitary, ephemeral places, “non-places” stripped of memory. The structures of surveillance and control, are instruments that standardize and limit movement through the urban landscape, are transformed into a protectionist chimera. Observing them is fundamental for understanding the disciplinary constraint brought to bear in order to eliminate subjectivities. Just as in the panoptical tower, the non-visibility of the guard is not proof of his absence. On the contrary, it creates in the individual who observes the structures feelings of distrust and uncertainty that imposes discipline. Privremeni, osameni, minlivi mesta, “mesta {to ne postojat” li{eni od se}avawa.

I am interested in places with special characteristics and living conditions. As they are unfamiliar and they accommodate special situations, they act as matrices of narrations. These narrations often aim at the revocation of the unfamiliar. The elements that morphologically enrich those places are designated and the way in which they contribute to the creation of intellectual and psychological connections of man and place is investigated. The place’s semiology transforms it into a meaningful and symbolic context.

The main concept in Di Lecce’s investigation consists of center-periphery dialectics relating to the urban network and the human body. In the artwork We Are Never Alone, Di Lecce aims to express the concept of the body as a closed space, as a prison of the soul, and he suggests to us the idea of opening as a hint to other pictures. To see and to be seen. Cataldo Colella Osnovniot koncept vo istra`uvaweto na Di Le~e se sostoi od centralno-periferna dijalektika koja e povrzana so urbanata mre`a i ~ove~koto telo.

The installation The Trophies of the City represents the city gates. Through them a person has let himself in, in a direct and figurative sense: what he breathes, eats, what he experiences. And one of these things, and possibly the most important, is the car. It’s not simply a car, but further a tech gadget, a new electronic intelligence. We are presenting an installation of the skins of different cars, as an allegory of the crucifixion of cars, as a city’s trophies, as it might seem to the person and the city, that they’re the owners of the car, but being the owner often turns out to be the slave.

Seven roads lead to and from Skopje, thus the city sees, listens, breathes and talks through them. Though the giant was cured, the fear of further spells made him feel unpleasantly grey, which affects the city even today. Unfortunately, the hero wasn’t able to protect himself from eventual future spells, and he continued struggling with fear. The city became grey! A group of young artists who experienced the greyness had the idea of going back in time to create a “horn amulet protection costume,” that would protect the giant in overcoming the fear that was causing the bad vibrations in the city.

In my paintings I build up an immobile, quiet frame that captures the mystic atmosphere caused by someone’s recent departure or uncertain presence that can be sensed. I try to capture this feeling of something desirable and close, but also mystic, elusive, and incomprehensible. I stage an enigmatic world assembled of figures and objects subjected to the principle of mystery. These are scenes on the verge of dream and reality that leave the impression of memories.

My works originate from the difficulties I have always had with oral and written expression. Although they make efforts to relate to the viewer, a missing factor in the work always results in miscommunication. Laylaynay dwells on the daily usage of the actions of reading and listening. Since an oral story is now shown in written format, the subject of the story, “the sound,” is lost.

Esiba Arte was born as an attempt to be a mixture of thought and action with the final goal of creating and doing more. It uses as its instrument of action the fixed, moving or live image in order to reveal hidden meanings. Nessuno è solo (Nobody is Alone) is an open performance realized thanks to the participation of external viewing. That’s why it was conceived as a video clip that demands an active presence from the public, a constant interaction with the images.

The right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing. In Mirror Writing two hands write simultaneously, in a clearly unsuccessful symmetry, a proposition that repeats the same subject matter: The line which is here / Is now there / In order to remain there / The line that was once here. It aims to overcome itself in that attempt as in a tautological circle. On the other hand, Drawing Space proposes a real space in confrontation with the space of representation. It confronts the dilemma of two Spaces at the same Time, as well as two Times in the same Space. The hand that draws is the action that makes it possible to rethink about itself, that allows one to guess a certain circularity.

Francesca Follini is a promising new talent of Italian comics. She has already worked professionally in the graphic and illustration fields. She published the series Progetto Uranus for the A. Pazienza comic strip center. The Plague deals with the myth of the Seven Doors from an animistic point of view. The attention of the author focuses on a society that is no longer able to communicate. The senses, just like the Doors, are closed. But the ending remains open. The mixed technique refers to a construction of the modern comics page, where there are references to Manga style.

ALICE GADREY SELECTED BY ESPACECULTURE/IZBRANA OD ESPACECULTURE MARSEILLE/MARSEJ > FRANCE/FRANCIJA Alice Gadrey approached each sculpture as if it were the first. And her baggage may fill up but she remains “intuitive.” A perfect example is Montée Céleste (Rising to the Heavens) or how to organize the encounter between clay and iron, two materials that she likes to juxtapose, with the idea of a collision between solidity and fragility in mind. The background being the preparatory work of conceptualization and the desire to flirt with a design free from all forms of functionality: in other words, poetic architecture. All without losing grip of a notion that is primordial for her: verticality. Alis Gadri ja smeta sekoja skulptura kako da e prvonastanata. I moè da í se napolni kuferot, no taa i ponatamu ima izrazeno ~uvstvo na ‘intuicija’.

The artists are gathered here for one purpose only—to represent their vision of the creation of the city of Skopje and to offer a different imaginary outlook upon its mythological background. But, their vision goes beyond and tries to capture what is more of a destiny for the whole Balkan Peninsula. Simple in narration, the story represented by this group presents their view of the drama concerning the Balkans also as a gate itself. And the visual line of the representation here only complements the direction of the narration … giving it what is most important—her élan vital.

Saudade (mixed happy and sad feelings for lost memories involving the hope that what is being longed for might return) is a cycle of portrait paintings of women crying. In this project, I try to show my feelings about painting and myself. The work consists of an installation of four Plexiglas panels on which there are different, basic transparent CMYK colors. Only at one moment in a specific place can you see how the colors should look. CMYK is a printing technique. I use it to express my doubt as to whether painting still makes any sense.

This project emerges from the attempt to explore existential issues. I have always been interested in this project and that is the reason why I turned first to philosophy and later to art. The subject is the human being as a helpless creature, exposed and extremely fragile. On this sea of asphalt, the small creatures seem to wander around, without knowing where they are going to or where they are coming from. Their feet do not leave footprints, just lost steps.

This strange town is in fact the training-grounds of the Nîmes Police Academy. Strange and lifeless, except when being used, it inspired the artist’s cold, journalistic vision of the place. Produced on a light-table, this is an exact replica, an identical copy of every page of the newspaper Le Monde published on September 19, 2006. Such a copy raises this edition to the rank of art when it would normally be merely a short-lived daily paper.

Black Scape is composed of a box enclosing two loudspeakers. A layer of black powder on the upper surface vibrates under the impulse of the bass notes. The volatility of the lightweight pigment contrasts with the massive wooden box, evoking a moving monochromatic painting. Black Scape se sostoi od kutija vo koja se smesteni dva zvu~nika.

The Arte Architettura Territorio group (Laura Cazzaniga, Osvaldo Tiberti et al), carried out research on the connections between visual art and the independent social network in several different contexts (university, city, landscape); Salomè a Skopje was the last project inspired by an ancient legend about the origin of the town. It’s a sculpture, it’s an ambient, it’s a little pavilion, it’s like an allegory of the five senses.

I am an extrospective image-maker. What interests me is exploration. I choose to make images of the built environment because I believe it is the most diverse and compelling subject in existence. Re-creation explores increasingly familiar fabrications and artificial environments. Although these images appear “empty,” on closer inspection human traces are scattered throughout the images, disguised among scenes of banality, vacancy and peculiarity.

Eastern-ness, not only as a visual expression, but also as social identity, and a tool for political presentation. The installation Samira describes a young Arab Christian woman dealing with issues of racism and self-definition. The Christians in Israel confronts two “majority” groups: Israeli Jews and Muslim Arabs. In order to guard their uniqueness and protect their identity, the Christians display a dual attitude toward both majority groups: on one hand, they attest to their will to integrate; on the other hand, they display a clear tendency to maintain their in group identity and set themselves apart. Eastern-ness (Istok), ne e samo vizuelno pretstavuvawe, tuku i socijalen identitet, i alatka za politi~ko pretstavuvawe. Instalacijata Samira opi{uva mlada Arapka, hristijanka, koja se soo~uva so rasizam i samodefinirawe.

Kiki’s artistic expression raises color to a level of idea in the most intangible, most subtle and purest meaning of the word. The idea here is a simple vibration, a specific kind of interaction between the subject and the object in which the material disappears and the touch becomes an irrational cognition and acknowledgement of beauty. To set the art of painting free from material produces, an entirely intimate function of freeing the existence from substance, which puts pressure on it. Mitev Gorjan, Vasilevska Katerina

A set of photographs focused as a whole on memory, which I consider a group of snapshots and flashes we all share… How many words, ideas, feelings and frustrations have you felt that others in different places, times and cultures have shared? How many times have you felt that you relived the same situation or said the same words before, as if your soul sneaks in the quiet of the night and practices rituals of its own private life, and in the morning returns to its coffin keeping only memories of its flight? I believe in the law of continuity, that nothing ends, in fact we live in a circular area, where all things begin where they end.

Alexandria is an inspiring city and the presence of the Mediterranean Sea adds to its magic. Sometimes I feel that we are all somehow relatives and that we share the special spirit not felt anywhere else. I became very inspired by this idea and I dreamt of leaving my footprints on every Mediterranean shore so I tried to fulfill my dream through art. I always had the feeling that the camera is the window to the artist’s soul. It makes us find special things in very ordinary places. It’s not about what we see but how we see it. So, inspired by my surroundings, I use my camera to freeze an instant of time.

HOTEL NUCLEAR GROUP

The diversity of my political and geographic course in the changing period after 1989 allowed me to develop my artistic vision as a permanent remelting of ideologies. The multiple feelings coming out of the East-West tension became the main subject of my work. My paintings are structured according to various dichotomies: abstraction/figuration, personal imagery/official culture, model/copy. Proceeding from narrative and formal aspects, I tend to open a debate on notions like authenticity, nationalism, historical and cultural heritage.

The work examines contemporary global hysteria juxtaposed with the idealized image of globalization. Inspired by the rise of fascism/nationalism the artists play on the frustration of living (in such circumstances). Divisions (re)created are no less meaningless or arbitrary than those present in the minds of people. They are symbolically linked and conditioned by the omnipresent need to mark and divide territory. The product? Alienation, for alienation is the ultimate form of fear and distrust.

The comic strip Exercising the Senses is the result of my stay in New York. It is concerned with the topic of the city and senses. After a longer stay in a large city, due to constant bombardment of the senses, pieces of information and sensations start to flood the mind unselected, so that one’s identity is suppressed and self-perception shifted. In my comic I show this experience through the communication of two characters who “exercise” calming down the senses, which only generates the adverse effect of helter-skelter.

The artwork deals with the fact that one of the most important things that an individual can do is pursue an education so that he/she can develop more self-awareness. If a person doesn’t understand the limits of the seven perceptions and attempts to exceed them, this could lead to the seven gates of hell. In this painting the seven grades of broken limits are symbolized by seven nuances of rose color. When these limits are respected individually by all, life has a rose flavor.

Excavators, gears, or details of machines that surround imagery, disturbing and melancholic situations where the absence of man intensifies the force of work and movement. Aggressive chromatic choices suggest alienating and unreal atmospheres. Matter works where the ancient technique of bas-relief blends with intimate everyday life creating overlap between painting and sculpture. On surface, time and movement are shifted creating superimposition of present and past images.

Black and white are two extreme values of light. An infinite palette of colors and images is possible between the two. On the screen, we can visualize ideas with no end. The viewer does not see black and white, but the limits of the computer, and the illusions created by the retinal persistence. Our eye is disturbed by sparkling purples, colored rhythms, and burning beats. Where the computer program is millimetric, the screen cannot return the required precision. The audience is wiped into an optical explosion to slowly take-off from this retinal merry-go-round.

Untitled is an installation that explores the conflict between the need to express/reveal and the actual difficulty in doing so. I use a variety of materials to explore this idea. Untitled uses neon as a voice which is commonly seen in advertising within a public setting and this creates an abstract form so that the idea evolves and communicates. The neon is a calculation of all diary dates used within Diary Ball. Over time new diaries are shredded and added which results in an evolving form.

Nearest Future is a futuristic work providing an imaginary world which governs multinationals reflected by their innocent corporate image. The masterpiece features a “cyborg,” manufactured in series as a machine for a brand whose logo evokes the biblical and mythical fruit of desire which grew on the tree of science and knowledge, and was guilty of our original sin. The remaining photos show some eggs created by another brand and show a fruit salad... In terms of food, many brands will use the aesthetics to sell the product, neglecting the quality.

The sculpture Général Space Mobility is constructed as a mobile phone relay tower with mirrors that look like satellite dishes. The piece captures and reflects its surroundings like the mirrors at street junctions or security mirrors in shops. White Handing is composed of plaster cast cylinders installed on the floor and of hand-drawn circles in charcoal that suggest fake mishaps in the landscape.

The fast application of the painting on the canvas by means of spatulas dipped into the painting and the partial elimination of the consciousness as the authority of aesthetic control characterize a pictorial process which the artist describes in the following way: “The rate was for me a necessary means to reduce to a minimum the degree of control... I work from the inside to the outside, exactly as nature does.”

If the poetic image is a sudden grand salience on the surface of the psyche according to Gaston Bachelard, then Anna Karatza, with her particular autobiographical pencil transcribes the domestic spatiality in a clear confessing manner. Motifs, which revert from three dimensions to two, occupy emotionally (un)filled representations of a middleclass dwelling where human presence or absence leaves an open-ended work for the spectator to compose his own narrative.

Liquid Light Water as an element brings forth another aspect of objects, one that we cannot see in reality, a sort of fairy tale, the magical side of things. Beginning from my deep interest in water itself, this work revolves around the subtle changes that the human face and hair undergo when submerged in water. These images could even remind us of paintings. The intense stare of the eyes is another factor I wished to show, a cold, unexpressive look in the eyes, which could even bring on a shudder. On the other hand, the human face is beautified, with small blemishes disappearing and taking on a feeling of peace and relaxation.

Few Coordinates in the Space-Time revives an ancient philosophical thought about the connection of beauty with number and proportion, and incarnates it into a contemporary work of art. This work of art is a symbolic representation of the unity of everything that exists in this world. By combining symbols of the major world religions it illustrates the position of culture in the harmonious movement of the universe on its evolutionary way. At the same time it shows resemblance with the most perfect natural objects, crystals.

Distorted human values continually generate useless objects and these become the center of life, the meaning of life. Almost every human work results in rubbish. The alchemy says that the aim should be to elevate and to help the world to improve and become more liveable in a material and spiritual sense. Instead humans produce rubbish, creating negative alchemy, ruining the material, the spirit and the soul. In my work I would like to express the distorted value system, unconscious rubbish fetishism. So instead of making gold from the world, we make rubbish of it.

The Dutch duo Kok & Deiman create with Overpass a live performance whereby the video is derived from the sound. Because of the non-explicit relation between the improvised sound and the partly generative video, a distance is obtained between the two. The sound sketches the video without finalizing it. The suggestions towards landscape, architecture and texture introduce the sense of perspective and spatiality without deserting the abstraction.

Symbioses, harmony and disharmony of the body and soul all echo as jazz variations around something larger like cosmos, family, time, yourself.

The work Communication Disturbances is concerned with the border area between internal and external. In the foreground is the impossibility of the normal flux of emotions from the inside out and vice versa. As the field for projection of “disturbances,” i.e. distortions of behavior, we used the head with its principal sensory and communicative characteristics. Its character is trapped in the middle of the transformation from anthropomorphous into the animal form; according to the fabled old recipe.

The Betrayal of the Bridge tells the story of the betrayal of hope, of denied lives and experiences of daily shipwrecks. It is the story of two men who left home to become part of a new society. Their journey has not fulfilled the promise of redeeming the two protagonists and shows us the recollection of the land that they have long left behind. A rag donkey, commonly thought to be ignorant, collects the traces of their failure and examines their stories, as a guardian of their memory.

In her artistic investigation, Laurino focuses on the mutual contamination of experimental filmmaking and photography. The performance Take a Breath tells the story of an awakening. The body disaggregates in the same way as the cerebral matter of the Giant escapes enchantment, becoming the evanescent link, vanishing and disappearing in its unaltered and primordial shape: The Essence. Take a Breath is a statement of reconciliation between the contemporary human being and his own soul. Cataldo Colella Vo svoeto umetni~ko istra`uvawe, Laurino se skoncentrira na zaemnoto zarazuvawe na eksperimentalniot film i fotografijata. Izvedbata Take a Breath (Zemi Zdiv) raska`uva za edno budewe. Teloto se odvojuva na istiot na~in kako koga intelektot na Xinot bega od ma|epsanosta, so toa stanuva minliva vrska, koja is~eznuva vo nejzinata nepromeneta i prvobitna forma: Su{tinata. Take a Breath e izjava na pomiruvawe pome|u sovremeniot ~ovek i negovata du{a. Kataldo Kolela

...Flux... The sensory realization of time which is a result of movement is displayed as an objectification of light on a surface unit and the differential shaping of this unit in the macro world. This is a mental way of keeping track of time expressed through a body, which is a 3D factor that carries in itself the hours of progression, photographically replicated, memorizing the light, the color, which builds the volume with its identity and thus demonstrates the course of day, time, i.e. flux... ...Flux (Fluks)... ^uvstvenoto ostvaruvawe na vremeto, koe se javuva kako rezultat na dvi`ewe, se postavuva kako opravduvawe na svetloto vrz del od povr{inata i odreduvaweto na formata na ovoj del od povr{inata vo makro svetot.

Juan Santacruz is a philosopher as well as a photographer. Juan Santacruz, together with Miguel Espada (with a degree in Philosophy and Mathematics), created Espada & Santacruz Estudio. This studio is specialized in exploring art from a contemporary perspective, but also makes works orientated toward photography, video, installations and performance, and other works related to fashion business and architecture. Heterodoxy is his main virtue but it is also the main cause of the ostracism he is living with.

NICOLAS MANENTI SELECTED BY THE BJCEM JURY IZBRAN OD @IRITO NA BJCEM

In my artworks I try to settle the question of sense experience in relation to domination within the social realm. By making hopeless attempts to escape from busy environments and rigid timetables, I produce an instant irony of “vanitas”—a plot of nonsense in domesticated environments—which are seemingly secure but marked by a permanent anxiety. I try to confront reality itself, by reducing objects to their own representation and putting reality in conflict with its own image. In the recent installation Angenagelt (2008), real plants are pinned leaf by leaf on the wall, drawing a kind of disembodied fresco, reducing itself to a parody—a landscape for waiting rooms, like the last memory of “nature” held on to by modern man.

Vo moite dela se obiduvam da go re{am pra{aweto za osetite vo pogled na dominacijata vo socijalnata sfera. So bezuspe{ni obidi za begstvo od gu`vi i nepromenlivi planovi, sozdavam momentna ironija na ‘vanitas’ - si`e na gluposta vo doma{na atmosfera - koi po sî izgleda deka se bezbedni, no obele`ani so postojan nemir. Se obiduvam da ja soo~am realnosta samata so sebe, so namaluvawe na predmetite koga se pretstavuvaat i ja stavam realnosta vo sudir so nejzinata slika. Vo neodamne{nata instalacija Angenagelt (2008), zaka~eni se vistinski rastenija i toa list po list, na toj na~in se crta izvesna bestelesna freska, sveduvaj}i se samata sebe na parodija - pejza` od ~ekalni, kako poslednoto se}avawe na “prirodata” koe go zaka~il moderniot ~ovek.

A short video work which the place of action has been removed from realistic surroundings to the underwater world. The aim of changing realities is to create a non-dimensional illusion and metaphysical atmosphere, a bubble where everything seems to be beautiful yet… It is the temptation of escape and a metaphoric return to the womb—to our beginning.

Manual for Reading the Word Voda The work consists of the manual-physical book with the guide for how to use it and the text, which consists of letters that form the word voda-water (v-o-d-a) in various permutations and lengths. The other part is an audio CD—a mixtape—samples of people reading, singing, or interpreting the given text of voda in some other way. Sample of the guide: “In the beginning it is necessary to read the manual several times a day, both silently and out loud, in order to adapt the vocal tract. Later, reading out fluently once a day is sufficient…”

Kratko video vo koe mestoto na odvivawe e premesteno od realisti~nata sredina vo podvodniot svet.

For Nihâl Martli, painting is the opportunity to slide into the skin of diverse avatars, generally feminine, in order to face history in better and richer ways (The great one Art History, the small one Herstory). The characters that she appropriates or that she creates are drawing the mask of modesty behind which to shelter a certain boldness, a way of carrying her voice further.

These three sculptures are an attempt to reconstitute the fragmented precariousness of an impression searching for a symbolic essence. Isolated and suspended in space, immersed in a frozen time dimension. The plastic synthesis tends to cancel every possible lenticular descriptiveness, thus also reminding us of the form in terms of abstraction.

Different pieces of the installation from one side of view form the entire picture; from this side a viewer can see the whole idea and the sense of the work. Razli~ni par~iwa od instalacija od edna gledna to~ka formiraat edna kompletna slika, od ovaa strana gleda~ot mo`e da ja vidi celokupnata ideja i smisla na deloto.

Mirage refers to a collection or archive of images that depict the real everyday world, but at the same time point to detachment from everything real and ordinary. Mirage is a video installation, where each channel stands for one video portrait. The element of time within the act of portraying actualizes the phenomenon of posture, an unavoidable occurrence in portraying. In this way the posture becomes a kind of performance happening in front of the camera. At the same time posing is also a spontaneous act, a direct reaction to the camera. Mirage (Fatamorgana) se odnesuva na edna zbirka, ili na eden arhiv od sliki koi go portretiziraat sekojdnevniot `ivot, no istovremeno potenciraat na oddeluvawe od sî {to e vistinsko i voobi~aeno. Mirage e video instalacija, kade sekoj kanal pretstavuva eden video portret.

Live Television is an artwork that represents the recipients’ visual perceptions in time-space. It searches for the logic in the illogical, it moves and lives depending on the surroundings and the conditions around it. This work is an object that tends to become a person dependent on everything in their surroundings, a person lonely in his own concept of becoming an artwork… Television in Live (Televizija vo ìvo) e delo koe gi prikaùva vizuelnite percepcii na recepientot vo prostor-vremeto.

The Source On the floor and along the wall I assemble the geometrical shapes in the form of halves and I make out of them a spatial installation of geometric shape. None of these forms are identical. Every single one is hand sanded, and during that process I find physical contact with material and its modeling to be of great importance to me. When sanding, I don’t worry about the duration of the process, because that’s the way I affiliate with material and its nature, while the material itself is leading me.

Versatile, creative and romantic, with a unique style based in the construction of the human figure through the rediscovery of Italian Arte Povera. His sculptural work, mainly created with waste materials (tins, bottles, iron wires, etc.), strives for the recycling of the spirit through the recycling of material. The creations of this artist find their reason for being in their search for dialogue. His figures seem to communicate in a prophetic silence, as inviting the spectator to understand people and nations.

The artist stages her relationships, underlines the humanism of the face and that of the portrait; a staging distressed by the absence of the innocence of that portrait. Face as subject is not a fact of social reality, but a figure, which we must re-capture or, on the contrary, abandon. One way or the other, this cannot be achieved without the return of a personal identity, which, in contrast to the collective, restores the ego. Dorothea Konteletzidou

Find a person… Walk in his city… Enter his world… But when he takes out some small things from his pocket you will see a real world Full of signs and symbols That world which is further from all places and times.

The Energy in the Elements â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Space within Space This solution comprises five elements, three of which are in 3D rectangular glass forms and two glass panels. By means of this installation I am dealing with the subjugation of the illusion of space within the space (through two glass panels), and the cohesion of the energies of the elements. The problem I am dealing with in this solution is the apprehension of the light effect (the articulation of the energies), as well as, the problem of the shades on the elements themselves.

Nienkemper & Ricciardo is an artist duo whose works are located somewhere between graphic design and fine arts. Mixing formal languages, the duo produces editorial artworks that go beyond their normal context of editions becoming performing installations. Trespassing is comprised of four photographic portraits of people from the streets of Skopje covered with a golden screen-print that can be scratched off. In seven parts of the portrait, if the golden lacquer is scratched it cannot be peeled off. Seven no trespassing areas or seven golden gates.

VIZUELNI UMETNOSTI

The search is focused on the pictorial technique. The paintings are realized through the overlap of several plexiglass plates held together by a framework. The act is divided in two parts: first comes the realization of a geometric design and then a completely casual pictorial tactic. One modifies the other up to a resonance point of the forms.

The basic theme of these five paintings is the brain. In formal sense, they are plastic forms which stimulate the brain organ, placed on a monochrome background in a pop-cultural and satirical manner. Plastic imitations of several brains, placed on five surfaces, have been created exhibiting allegorical displays which instigate the comic moment as a dominant moment. The comic in this case spans from joke and irony, to parody and farce. The comic aims to annul the feeling of disgust, resistance or the fear from the inner organs.

IZBRANA OD KOSOVSKIOT MLADINSKI SOVET (KYC), PRISHTINA/PRI[TINA > KOSOVO/KOSOVO Inspired by the song Temple of the King by Rainbow, this painting with the same title tells a classical story with a hero, the nude hero, who is searching for something and through seeking he eventually finds it. What he finds is tranquillity and freedom. The nude hero finally arrives at the temple of the King (who is probably God or at least some deity) and finds the answer in the circle, with few individuals surrounding him. Blerim Gashi

In photography I find a very fragile moment where something, idea, person, state of mind, is irreversibly revealed. I generally stage my photographs or rather create performances, temporary installations because I want to look at the world with my own needs and vocabulary. For me photography draws a balance between what is revealed and what remains a secret. On this thin line I try to create my photographs.

My work is about emphasizing clichés and asking questions whose best answer is silence. “How many things can you say without saying anything?” Dealing with the limitations of language and finding new ways of expression, creating situations of (mis)communication and ignorance, shifting between vulnerability and tyranny, the characters are full of contradictions and difficult to define. For them, the only certain thing is change. “Everything is going smoothly and before it happened, it had already happened the previous day, and it will happen now, as well as tomorrow.”

Living Room Plankton This object, that exists as an interactive visual installation, somehow seeks artificial life but aspires, above all to an imagined dimension of algorithmic beauty, translated by the routine of an artificial organism inspired by species of an animal/vegetable and nature. It develops by feeding on the atmospheric and acoustic conditions in the environment in which it is located. A poetic time lapse arises out of that repetitive and monotonous process which is life.

The video was filmed in the dormitory of the Secondary Railway School in Belgrade. During the summer break the dorm is used as a hostel, so it offers possibility for accommodation of third parties. Hostels are places where cultures assemble, where mostly young people from different regions can meet. But, because of the lack of privacy, hostels are places where something always happens and where it is hard to fall asleep either because of the snoring, sexual activity or noise during late night returns or early risings.

Didimoticho is a small town located on the border between Greece and Turkey. Today it has roughly nine thousand inhabitants out of which approximately two thousand are Greek Muslims.

I am interested in understanding and describing this process by interacting and photographing a very particular microcosm composed of just a few families, those of Muslim gypsy backgrounds.

I paint in the streets with the aim of carrying the most intense message possible to the viewer, seeking for his attention through the interplay of colors and textures, or even using graffiti as a way of protest either by explaining my ideas or using the irony that sprays allow. My intention is to keep painting in the streets, trying to paint bigger each time to reach more people.

I used the simplest means of expression, the pencil, where the forms appear through the thinning out and the thickening of their confines. Due to the vicinity of the limits of the form, the viewer has an impression of the color in the whole spectrum of the work. The image has been treated as a whole and everything is subdued in an evolutionary adventure of the line with constant rhythms and reductions.

Her artistic production is halfway between the figurative expression of shapes—which can be perceived in her early works—and a more abstract, subjective view, typical of her most recent or contemporary production… The pictures have a common element regarding both the means of expression and the iconography. It features vibrating spot colors in search of a fragmented and, at the same time, figurative reality which evocates multiple sensations. The works intend to become self-sufficient icons and create a “centrifugal space.” Francisco José Becerra Marín

This installation is dedicated to the subject of female identity. My interests are the relationship and the values of “female identity” and the “Balkan Countries.” A game sequence that invites all visitors, men or women, to interact and find his/her own answers and reflections about these questions. There are two figures covering two white walls like oversized wallpaper, forming a corner. The figures, two girls, are connected with a rubber rope so that the visitors can intervene and take part in that situation game.

The door defines an open space by closing it, creating a border, a clear line of demarcation. The separation is maintained through the control and limitation of movement, even through a simple sign. “No Entry” is the door which remains closed to certain groups discriminated against on grounds of sex, race and social status. Every door that is closed under the pretext of defence in fact establishes the fear from all that is different, from everything that is not me.

Her approach focuses in particular on the female body, a subject dear to artists, that here is presented according to its ancestral sacredness.

The action is stopped while it is going on, a moment frozen in time. It becomes the enduring image of the object caught in a precarious balance. History, infancy, remain only in the mind of the spectator, who can imagine, perhaps even hope for, the cessation of the movement. It is only a conjurer’s bluff. The marvel aroused by a trick. But perhaps it is also a dream. This work is a subtle game based on the limits of perception. It is an imaginary fragment stripped from time and redeemed.

The idea of my paintings is derived from scenes in our houses, our lives, our homes. I made woodcuts and linocuts of these scenes. Then I printed a series of English words that have no meaning to relay the idea that there isn’t any sense to our lives and that something controls us. The color of these words is very strong, in contrast to their background colors, to strengthen the idea. I also used some Western products such as Coca-Cola and Nescafe, remarking on their influence in our lives. I printed them as silkscreens, as well as I printed also some clash.

For my sculptures I use materials that I buy in handy stores. This allows me to produce my objects as ready-to-use. In this way the sculptures consist of elements made of the industrial wood type, ready to assemble. I use codes linked to history, which are being reflected culturally in the urban landscape. My experience of concrete painting gave me the opportunity to define painting as skin and afterwards to link it to an abstract object. I question reality by using “postminimal” tools.

The logic of Arab social systems requires women to hide, and through their silence, their submission and their complicity, the relationship of power between men and women is established. I make videos of women who seem to sacrifice themselves to stereotypes. And if I explore these clichés of the feminine condition, it is because the delimitation of the feminine gender to the intimate, the domestic life and the sentimental territory underlies Arab society.

Logikata na arapskite op{testveni sistemi im nalaga na ènite da se krijat, i preku toj niven molk, taa podredenost, i sou~estvo, se postignuva onaa vrska na mo} pome|u maìte i ènite. Pravam videa so èni koi navidum se `rtvuvaat sebe si za stereotipite. I ako gi istraùvam ovie kli{ea na sostojbata na ènata, toa e poradi ènskiot pol se sveduva na intimen, doma{en ìvot i taa sentimentalnata teritorija go potkopuva arapskoto op{testvo...

KINDA REHAB

Lacework straight out of a dream... or a nightmare. The works of Karine Rougier, mostly drawn with very sharp crayons, are smothered with details. There is a dreamlike quality in her work, where the characters initially seem cute, while in reality they gradually destroy others. Any references, something to lead the way? The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, the paintings by Bruegel the Elder and those by Hieronymus Bosch. The result produces a series of drawings which form an ensemble. Calling upon the viewer to take “real time” links, to sharpen and accustom his gaze. And the best thing to do is to just abandon oneself.

I’m an artist, performer, photographer, mountain climber, painter, hairstylist, cyclist, designer, runner, multimedia artist. I like the song Ta P’tite Flamme and to cook. The artist wants everyone who participates in this artwork to gain more knowledge about immigration, considering the immigrant’s problems.

Jihad Saadé is a video artist. Student of Radio TV at the NDU University in Lebanon, he did several short videos to denounce the reality of war that he suffered from a very early age. He usually exploits moving images to express insistently moving reality… The Platoon: a land must be protected … an army is ready to fight and give whatever it takes to protect the land from others… Jihad Saade e video umetnik.

Dress-Up The concept of the project is based on the indefinite options of wearing clothes. The artist prepared a digital library, enclosing 120 different pieces of clothing. A digital program (program demo.exe) was especially developed for this installation. The idea of this project depends on the dynamic between participants and the dress-up digital program and installation. The project starts when a participant (P1) stands at the back of the small white screen and a colleague (P2) uses the PC mouse to choose the clothing he/she wants from the program which is linked to the projector.

Dress-up (Doteruvawe) Konceptot na proektot vo osnovata e neograni~eni mo`nosti kako da se nosi oblekata. Umetnikot podgotvi digitalna biblioteka, koja vklu~uva 120 par~iwa od razli~na obleka.

The project arose out of questions I asked myself: “What would the world be like if time worked the wrong way round, if the human being was born old and died a baby? What would the world be like if everyone wanted to be old and was afraid of being young?” This set of thirty photographs describes a magical world where old people are the “children” and live smiling, happy and without worries.

VISUAL ARTS

Ghassan Salameh is a young visual artist who is involved mainly in the design field: from print, to moving image, to product, to display design, where installation art plays a large part in his artistic expression. His work is often described as “hard to understand” and uncommon, mainly because of the strong conceptualization process behind each piece. He attempts through his work to express the same basic human feelings shared by everyone but in a more abstract and aggressive approach to focus on the necessity of letting go of inherited social chains in order to empty all incarcerated feelings.

Nicholas Saunders is a free-lance illustrator and printmaker based in Manchester, England. His work is influenced by old American screen-printed rock and folk posters and is part of a reaction to the increasingly digital world. Nicholas has worked for a number of clients including Howie’s, Creative Concern and on the set of the more recent Harry Potter films in the graphics department. He has been named as one of the top ten illustrators in the UK.

These works take a deconstructive approach to the traditional theme of the landscape. Using the walled city and the garden as central motifs, they explore the idea of the making and breaking of boundaries—between inside and outside, known and unknown, self and other, text and image. The canvases evolve organically, using a variety of painting, drawing, printing, collage and decollage processes—part game, part strategy, part mind-map—resulting in multi-layered histories of mark-making.

I am interested in creating a point of view which would be closer to our subjective realities by manipulating the pre-defined hierarchies. Borders being continuously redefined, and an independent space of existence is created between them. The possibility of a continuous presence depends on the absence of the subject’s domination, for now subjectivity is not an end product determined by the relations within these hierarchies but an effect in the incessant production process of becoming.

Marco Scozzaro mainly uses photography, but he often produces installations combining video, sound, light and space. His research explores alienating feelings and dynamics of postmodernism, while at the same time investigating human beings and the city environment through an approach that is simple and introverted as well as cynical and realistic. Neuroni Mirror is a study of conformism, human behavior involving imitation and emulation, a reflection on the innate tendency to search for fellow human beings.

Via Roma n. 16 It is with great harshness and without any pretence at aestheticism that this sequence of photographs by Erika Sereni leads us to cross the threshold of spaces burdened with memories and suffering, initiating a game of reflections which turn the spectator into a witness who is far from passive, but able to relive—precisely through the sensorial experience—stories which would otherwise be condemned to the dismissal of collective oblivion.

In the age of the spectacular things, hard contradictions, those of the real thing and the false thing, the beautiful and the ugly, the real and the illusion, the sense and the senseless fade away, the oppositions become vague and one begins understanding that it is possible to live without a goal or sense, in flash-sequence, and this is new.

Circles A human being begins from nothing. Starting an endless journey looking for the lost horizon. That journey which ends exactly where it begins and then begins again. It could take days, maybe years or even a whole life. Between those beginnings and endings some of us may find their horizon in one of their long journey stops. They may find it in a few seconds while flying through the spacious space. Floating with every single part of their body, remembering every little thought that once crossed their soul, holding a dream.

Bully explores the dynamics of oppressive group behavior through a single-channel split screen projection. A gang ostracizes the weakest member and confines him to a small room. As the narrative develops the group’s ringleader banishes more of its members to the room, the size of which increases proportionally, reducing his space whilst inducing his own exclusion. The flux of the wall between them is the crux of this diptych, indicating the symbiotic relationship between form and content.

Playground in Skopje is a remainder of the war and the fact that it is always close to all of us, wherever we are. War can appear distant, inside TV monitors that explain, publicize, defend it even or are critical about it, but war is at the doors of every city, because it has entered our mind as something inevitable, to be accepted. The painting’s rarefied colors is a way of telling us how our children see the war as an actuality to live with, in the country or in the city, in reality or TV.

Siriab (Bertorelli) works on illustration and graphics; she links figurative elements and writing with materials inspired by ancient manuscripts, fabulous, mythological, dreaming creatures and symbols. Within the artwork selected for the Biennial, the artist interprets the seven gates through the essential themes of her artistic production, based on the poetry Seven Gates by Sanguineti, tracing a red line between the Macedonian legend and Italian literature.

In the video installation, consisting of ten video recordings, Goran Sˇkofic´ uses his own body. Each video shows a multiplied figure of the author who performs just one action in repetition. In this way he realizes Baudrillard’s theoretical assumption of the simulacrum, enabled through the mediation of the electronic image. He deconstructs the body into a naked “corpus,” as he titled his work, liberating it of humanization, of bodily weaknesses such as fatigue or errors. Sabina Salamon

The starting point is the map of the world. The cartographic depiction is interwoven with a map of feelings. This is a diary of lines and forms that turn everyday life into a problem, from social problems I see on TV to personal fears and joys, similar to every other human being. For nine months I collected different thoughts in the diary that also have a symbolic meaning. Nine months is the time a child spends in its mother’s womb. After that it develops and it is ready to face all those feelings. Trgnuvam od kartata na svetot. Kartografskiot opis se vtkajuva zaedno so kartata na ~uvstvata.

The city of Skopje is suffocating under the rapid expansion of concrete walls. As if some evil spells have been thrown upon it, aiming to suffocate and again seal the seven vital roots of the city. And the seven roads leading to the depths of the soul of Skopje are to be once again impassable. The Face of the City is a portrait of the urban chaos in Skopje, built upon fragments of the city. The portrait has been set in a profile, with an opened mouth and is symbolizing the face of Skopje. The mouth is screaming in pain and despair resulting from the uncreative interventions in the city.

SELECTED BY UK YOUNG ARTISTS IZBRAN OD MLADITE UMETNICI OD OBEDINETOTO KRALSTVO UNITED KINGDOM/OBEDINETO KRALSTVO My Time Based Photographs reflect on the screen space of new media and the nature of photography within this space. The “live” screen space of new media is neither reducible to the cinematic nor the photographic. New temporalities have emerged, still relying on our pre-existing understanding of these media. My work investigates these new temporalities to facilitate a reflexive position on the cinematic and photographic modes of representation.

1x7=7x1 is an artwork composed of small sugar candies, which carry an entire history within, a myth, a life. They represent the interpretation of myth, focusing on the matter that emerges from the sweetness of the sugar and its temporary character. That is how I open a path for a free future interpretation of the things that always provoke interpretation in a way that satisfies the interpreter.

Moite Time Based Photographs (Vremenski Fotografii) se odraz na prostorot na ekranot na novite mediumi i prirodata na fotografijata vo svojot prostor.

In my work I try to shed the light on some of the contrasts in the society in which I live, either positive or negative, and in which I found that what might be positive for me is negative for others who live in the same circle of interest or vice versa. This is the starting point for my artwork. I use photography as my first tool to capture sudden and unplanned situations and scenes.

The exhibition space acquires a privileged role in the establishment of temporary communities; it creates a specific area of relationships, specific interspaces, in which the artist must accept the symbolic models it exhibits: every presentation (although modern art is engaged more in modeling than presenting), is related to some of the values able to be transposed in the recent socio-cultural context. Thus, art converts itself into a situation of encounter… Kokan Grcev

The artist works on the deception of destiny, practice strategies of the deviation of destiny. This way experimenting “genetically,” putting often in the scene the really double one, the possibility to make to live everything this to another (the alter ego) because “I can be saved.” The work L'ultimo abbraccio (Last Embrace) narrates the sacrificial act of a mother who gives up her own identity for a new one.

Her gaze, in spite of the indirect lack of humanism, is mainly humanistic through the emptiness felt by absence, deterioration and abandonment. Her isolated objects are chosen as reflections of a consumerist society where peoples’ humanism is “exhausted” due to their loneliness and silence. They are framed into the artist’s concept where the “reading” of the photographic image functions as a political act. An act that has Aristotelian purification as its purpose. Dorothea Konteletzidou

Using mirrors and lenses I am trying to create a work that would change the limitations of perception of the space. The work is based on the perception of surroundings and the displacement of the angle of observation through the use of periphery vision. Glasses express the idea of dirt, wryness and lies which are constantly subjecting us to an effort to avoid looking at them. Half truth is better then non-truth, the magnified and selective revelation of information. Nothing is white or black. I can only indicate some particular answers, opening a wider horizon than this unilateral and blind one.

The Balkan Desire performance questions two important issues: the position of the Eastern European-Balkan artist in the Western art system and status of the artwork/product in terms of the market. Performing the identity that I’m expected to show as an Eastern European artist, I become a Lacanian subject—my desire is the desire of the other—offering myself as a manifestation of the presupposed fantasy about Balkans (plums, jam, the woman of a patriarchal society “slaving over the stove,” the poor artist cuing for free food…).

I am living in a society where we tend to overlook details that are part of our everyday culture, expressions, beliefs; they are often rejected because they can represent something negative. My work is based on a concept which is to detect these details, to clarify and to emphasize them, thus illustrating them in a form and making them a symbol of a thought or of an expression but also a way of living and thinking. These elements may represent contemporary Algerian society and an actual vision of our society.

Rather than transfixing a moment, pinning down a certain thought, I am interested in triggering the formation of a series of juxtaposed actions and marks which recontextualize one another and change overall perceived meanings forever. None of the juxtaposed elements—my initial trigger, actions and documentations—can be isolated from the other, which brings me to the problem of the relationship of the process and the outcome in making an artwork.

The video-installation Gravitation analyzes the connection of a person to the world around him/her and the loss of this connection in the end. The person changes into a mechanism—a small screw devoid of individuality because of imposing stereotypes and social stamps. Distracting factors take root constantly in personal space, therefore, a person does not have the opportunity to regain consciousness and find harmony with his/her own inner world.

These artworks are selected because of their professionalism, the good composition which expresses more than you can see. It’s a special eye which “lights” (in its way) life and death. It’s a realistic mirror of the soul, the Mediterranean soul, emotions and fillings.

Industrial Building III and Cold Building are part of a series of works that began in a previous photography study, made in the city of Brussels, showing industrial architectures. I didn’t want to lose this research, so I combined painting and photography. This union is expressed in the works by the use of photo emulsion mixed with oil and acrylic. The final result continues reflecting that rigid architecture so characteristic of Belgium.

The outrageous nature and aesthetics of the work make the bright neon an irresistible lure for the viewer, who comes to satisfy his curiosity. In this sight, the viewer receives signals and “stimula” that invite him to look and see—a voyeur—Dominique. The constant switching between neon and the image of women rushing to read a book, culminating in the achievement of the gesture sought (Bingo!). Sensual and strident, aesthetics and color film wrapped in an atmosphere where the viewer can’t resist the temptation to follow the plot.

The motif I paint makes no difference to me. I have painted pretty much everything. Color has always been my starting point and my only goal, sometimes under the mask of a woman, sometimes of a horizon. In the end it becames the only motif in my painting. I have depicted the state of the spirit, a moment. My canvases do not have to be liked by everyone. That is not their purpose. If touch someone from time to time, their mission is accomplished. Sî edno mi e kakvi motivi slikam. Imam naslikano skoro od sî po ne{to. Sekoga{ trgnuvam od bojata i zavr{uvam so nea, ponekoga{ pod maskata na nekoja `ena, nekoga{ pak na nekoj horizont.

AURORE VALADE

Her intention is not to announce or transmit a particular narration, but she stimulates the observer while in the act of observing, drowning in his interior, in his intimacy and becoming aware of himself, and through himself to become aware of the Other, as well as the World around him. The abstract expressionism is color field art, the main stylistic directions of the canvases… The equal treatment of harmony and chaos creates an equilibrium which is necessary for an artwork, because harmony without chaos doesn’t exist or vice versa. Ana Frangovska

Performance as a possible aesthetic instrument to form or decipher a particular experience, both individual and collective. To act poetically on memory activation and intimate beliefs. Communication as an instinctual people project. Mental images transform from immaterial messages into sensual impressions, induced by clear physical actions. All aim to find a free space to come together and set forth an experience which is at the same time poetic, civil and social.

I try to make my work accessible, by expressing and mirroring common but unspoken moments and themes of society.

VALENTINA VETTURI SELECTED BY ARCI BARI IZBRANA OD ARCI BARI BARI/BARI > ITALY/ITALIJA

Valentina Vetturi’s research has its basis in a critical reflection on the principle mutations of our society. Starting from a mainly photographic work, the artist developed a method for a relational observation addressed to the relationships between people and the environment, often chosen by secondary tracks. The Dialogue Room for Skopje comes from the necessity of introducing comprehension devices for other kinds of cultures: a fragmented emotional archive, that expresses the cognitive experience of meeting a young woman from Georgia presently living in Italy. Potragata na Valentina Veturi vo osnovata go ima krititi~kot razmisluvawe na glavnite promeni na na{eto op{testvo. Zapo~nuva od prete`no fotografsko delo, umetnikot razvil metod za povrzano nabquduvawe koe se odnesuva na vrskite pome|u lu|eto i sredinata, ~esto kako izbor na vtorostepeni pateki. The Dialogue Room (Soba za razgovor) za Skopje se javuva od potrebata za pretstavuvawe na alatki za razbirawe za drugite vidovi kulturi: podelena emocionalna arhiva, koja go izrazuva kognitivnoto iskustvo koe se javuva pri sre}avawe na mlada `ena od Gruzija, koja sega `ivee vo Italija.

Leo Wörner works in both sculpture and site-specific installations. In our times, as they are increasingly shaped by the virtual world of Google & Co., he wants to capture the essence of real space. Old technical equipment and their bases are transformed into sculptures producing immaterial images, heat or noise, with cables connecting them. For the Skopje Biennial, Wörner has built a transport case which takes on the role of a mother ship, fueling all the other elements that make the three-dimensionality of the provided space tangible.

I walked by a barracks every day and wondered: “What is it like in there?” The military is not obligatory for women, so I wasn't threatened by it. That’s why you could say that anything about a barracks represents a challenge. I was attracted by those military facilities and their distance and unavailability. My desire to go wherever I want put the camera in my hands and brought me there—in the army—a place reserved for “the stronger sex.”

Na{ata tehni~ka oprema i nejzinite osnovi se transformirani vo skulpturi koi sozdavaat nematerijalni sliki, toplina ili vreva, povrzani so kabli.

Paul Wagner works on Gefügen (special compositions) that he creates out of elementary elements such as fog, darkness, light, sand, tubes, openings. He prefers forms and materials which are simultaneously material and immaterial and avoid a clear morphological codification due to their ubiquity.

With the installation Moonwalkers I want to show that “female art,” in the sense of art created by women, is not the same as feminist art. In this work the artists are thematically connected by twenty-eight topics: family and home, spirituality, menstruation, beauty, nature, feminism, male and female, childhood, politics… My authorial signature is expressed in the concept of mapping twenty-eight topics, a curatorial selection of artists’ works, archiving of material, and the overall aesthetics of the visual product.

Impossible Valentine 2001 is a suite of 32 black-and-white-Belgium-chocolate-style blocks of digital graphics. Their basic aim is to make one feel the sweet under his or her tongue but, if not, then no one is guilty—it’s just that the world went wrong. I made this as a response to the “infamous” 2001 in Macedonia, in which, let us say, two kinds, innocent, smart people could not have their Valentine because of the bombs. This story is also a matter of parallel worlds defined by ugly religious dogmas, and I am not really sure which one of these two worlds is actually the upside-down one.

The workshop activity planned for the Skopje Biennial is a key step of the project conceived by the Municipality of Ferrara, together with the University of Ferrara, Faculty of Architecture, for local young artists, based on the “town-laboratory” idea. The goal of the laboratory is strengthening the “web” interactions between local Institutions and the University, already working to realize research and experimentation in the fields of poetry languages, performing arts, writing, music, dance, and theatre. To carry out the project, a working team has been organized through strict selection. The members have prepared plans and constructed hand-made goods, using the traditional techniques of “old” performing arts and the “new” ones suggested by contemporary research.

Opera Rom is the result of a theatre workshop which took place in Smederevo, Serbia, supported by the Puglia Region–local authority for the Mediterranean, organized by Koreja, with the Cultural Centre of Smederevo and the Drom Association. Koreja worked with ten young actors and thirteen Rom people witnessing their culture, with the objective of cultural exchange and integration between young people from Smederevo and from the Rom community. Making theatre, discovering the body work: this has been the experimental field we started from, with the objective of showing how diversity may become a strength and source of richness.

VIRALE

This project has been created to promote the meeting between technological resources and traditional artistic techniques and to skip the dichotomy between the real and virtual world. Initially, three local creative-areas were realized, and, recently, a regional workshop. In Como, we have worked on the new communicative and artistic forms that sequential art assumes using new technologies such as photo retouching, painting digitalization and vectorial formats. In Lecco, using the new technologies of multimedia installations, we have added renewed value and interpretations to the landscape and the numerous historical buildings in Roman style that can be seen in that district. In Milan, using Arduino, a microcontroller that can connect the real object to the electronic and IT world, we have worked with physical computing and interaction design. In the regional workshop, some artists coming to the three local creative-areas have worked on a multimedia installation that is both a representation of the different Lombard territories and a collective representation of the “Seven Doors.” Education training, experimental run-through, exposition moments and the sharing of creative productions have been the foundations of the four Lombard meetings, that are being developed with the support of the digital platform virale.org.

Proektot napraven so cel da ja promovira sredbata pome|u tehnolo{kite resursi i tradicionalnite umetni~ki tehniki, da ja premosti dihotomijata pome|u vistinskiot i virtuelniot svet, i najprvo se realiziraa tri lokalni kreativni oblasti, a vedna{ potoa i regionalna rabotilnica. Vo Komo rabotevme na novi komunikativni i umetni~ki formi kade vo umetnosta na stripot se upotrebuvaat novi tehnologii kako fotografsko retu{irawe, digitalizacija na sliki i vektorski formati. Vo Leko, so upotreba na novite tehnologii na multimedijalnite instalacii, im dodadovme nova vrednost i interpretacii na pejza`ot i brojnite zgradi so istorisko zna~ewe vo rimski stil koi mo`at da se vidat vo taa oblast. Vo Milano, koristej}i go Arduino, mikrokontolor koj go povrzuva fizi~kiot predmetot so elektronikata i svetot na informati~kata tehnologija, rabotevme so fizi~ko programirawe i interaktiven dizajn.
