“Davno, davno bilo je…” – Retrospektiva YU Rock fotografije na omotima ploča

Večeras, 23. Aprila 2018. godine u 19h, otvaranje izložbe fotografija sa omota YU Rock ploča, galerija Pro3or, Koče Popovića 9

Od 60-ih godina prošlog veka do 1991. objavljeno je nebrojeno mnogo ploča rok orjentisanih muzičara koji su vremenom stvorili moćnu i uticajnu scenu. Fotografije i dizajnerska rešenja mnogih singl i LP izdanja tog vremena zavređuju pažnju, a mi smo pažnju usmerili upravo na omotnice vinila i fotografije na njima. Od romantičnih, grotesknih, provokativnih i cenzurisanih, preko klasičnih umetničkih fotografija među kojima neke važe za remek-dela, do smešnih i neinspirativnih dizajnerskih rešenja – u tom vremenu bilo je mesta za sve. Deo njih biće izložen u okviru ove retrospektive.

Nekadašnju neobično bogatu i šarenu muzičku scenu posmatramo kroz njenu estetiku.

Izložba ujedno predstavlja saradnju između Zvučnog arhiva Radio Beograd i Belgrade Photo Month

Izbor omota: Petar Janjatovic
Kustos: Ruzica Vrhovac
Ploče je ustupio Zvučni arhiv Radio Beograda kao i nekoliko privatnih kolekcija.
Žurka počinje u 19h uz DJ Časnu sestru.

“A Long, Long Time Ago…” – YU ROCK Photography Retrospective on Vinyl Covers

Tonight, 23rd april 2018 at 19h, exhibition opening of the photographies from the covers of YU Rock vinyls, gallery Pro3or, Koče Popovića 9

Between the 1960s and the early 1990s a vast array of vinyl were released by a great assortment of rock musicians, creating a powerful and influential music scene. The photographs and designs that packaged the single and LP releases from that period are still worthy of our attention and attract much interest. The plethora of vinyl releases from this period also provided us with a wide range of visual designs to cast our eyes over whilst enjoying the music, from the romantic, grotesque, provocative and censured, through to classical art photographs, the funny and even at times non inspirational art. Many are now recognised as design masterpieces and this retrospective aims to highlight a small part of that history.

The collectors’ passion for this period of vinyl releases is still visible today and the “A Long, Long Time Ago…” exhibition displays some of the rich aesthetics created in that period that still hold our attention in the present day.
The exhibition is a result of collaboration between Radio Belgrade’s Sound Archive and Belgrade Photo Month.

Cover Selection: Petar Janjatović
Curator: Ružica Vrhovac
Vinyl obtained by Radio Belgrade Sound Archive and courtesy of private collectors.
DJ Časna Sestra (DJ Nun) will be creating nostalgic feelings with a selection of pop, rock and new wave music.

Insomnia – Photography Exhibition by Ruben van der Sleen

Tonight, 23rd april 2018 at 19h, opening of “Insomnia” photography exhibition by Ruben van der Sleen, Kulturni centar GRAD, Braće Krsmanović 4

During his exchange studies in Finland (3rd year of the Art & Crossmedia Design course at the AKI) Ruben frequently found himself awake while the rest of mankind would be deeply asleep. He would take his camera out into the dark streets of Helsinki and started photographing the abandoned unseen world scarcely lit by streetlights. Darkness disturbed by the partial illumination of sodium-, mercury- and LED-lights creates a world that is rarely observed by most of us.

We have to go back all the way to 1933 when Brassaï published his pièce de résistance ‘Paris de Nuit’ to understand that photography and darkness are not the best of friends, but when combined in an intelligent and creative way, can result in utmost beauty. Brassaï looked at and photographed a city so well known by the whole world, in a way only few people had observed it: at night. It would become his most famous and sought after work and he earned his nickname “The Eye of Paris”, given to him by Henry Miller.

Ruben’s “Insomnia” is an ongoing project about darkness, light, sleeplessness and beauty that has so far been photographed in Helsinki, Lyon and Belgrade.

Insomnia – izložba fotografija Ruben van der Sleen-a

Večeras, 23. aprila 2018. godine u 19h, otvaranje izložbe fotografija “Insomnia” Ruben van der Sleen-a, Kulturni centar GRAD, Braće Krsmanović 4

Tokom programa studentske razmene u Finskoj (na trećoj godini AKI Akademije za umetnost i dizajn), Ruben je često bio budan dok je ostatak sveta spavao dubokim snom. Tada bi uzimao svoj fotografski aparat i po mračnim ulicama Helsinkija fotografisao napušteni svet osvetljen slabim uličnim svetlom, svet kakav često ne vidimo. Tama uznemirena delimičnim osvetljenjem natrijumskih i LED-sijalica stvara svet koji većina nas retko kada vidi.

Moramo se vratiti daleko unazad, u 1933. godinu, kada je Brassaï objavio svoj pièce de résistance ‘Paris de Nuit’/’Pariz noću’, da bismo razumeli da fotografija i mrak nisu najbolji prijatelji, ali kada se kombinuju na inteligentan i kreativan način, mogu stvoriti neverovatnu lepotu. Brassaï je posmatrao i fotografisao grad – grad poznat celom svetu – na način na koji ga je posmatrao mali broj ljudi: tokom noći. To je postalo njegovo najpoznatije i najtraženije delo, zahvaljujući kojem je dobio nadimak “Oko Pariza”, koje mu je dao Henry Miller.

Rubenova “Insomnia” je njegov tekući projekat o tami, svetlu, besanosti i lepoti, koje je do sada fotografisao u Helsinkiju, Lyonu i Beogradu.

Večeras, 21. aprila 2018. godine u 19h, otvaranje izložbe fotografija “Da te sačuvam” Mile Pejić, Meduza, Gospodar Jevremova 6

Intimna porodična serija fotografija sa bakom, osobom koju na ovaj način želim zauvek da sačuvam od zaborava. Baka je jedina osoba u porodici sa kojom se u potpunosti poistovećujem – po načinu života, stilu oblačenja, interesovanjima…Ova serija fotografija je otvorena i na ovom projektu radim svakodnevno beležeći čak i predmete koje baka koristi, jer će jednoga dana svaki od njih predstavljati relikviju. Serija o ljubavi i nežnosti.

To save you – photography exhibition by Mila Pejić

Tonight, 21st April 2018 at 19h, opening of photography exhibition “To save you” by Mila Pejić, Meduza, Gospodar Jevremova 6

A series of intimate family photographs featuring my grandmother – a person I would like to forever encapsulate in my memories. Grandmother represents the only person in my family who I can entirely relate to – the way we dress, the way we live our lives… the things we love to enjoy. This series of photographs is open and I continue to create more of them on a daily basis, knowing some day each of them will represent a relic. A series about love and tenderness.

Portraits from the Novi Sad Photographic Studios – Ivana Jovanović Gudurić

Today, 20th April 2018 at 13h, opening of photography exhibition “Portraits from the Novi Sad Photographic Studios”, curated by Ivana Jovanović Gudurić, Mala galerija Doma Vojske Srbije, Braće Jugovića 19

The exhibition is sampled of portrait photographies created in the early Novi Sad photographic studios, during the 19th century, which have been preserved in the depository of the City Museum of Novi Sad. The masters of photography from this period took numerous portraits of generations of men and women that resided in Novi Sad who used this opportunity to firmly uphold their own newly established position as members of civil class. These original photographies, displayed at the exhibition, offer an insight not only into technical and aesthetic development of portrait photography in the 19th century, but also into material and social culture of the time. The selected photographies are followed by the descriptions about the exciting lives and business ventures of the photographers, as well as the ads from the press which served as the means of promotion.

Portreti iz novosadskih fotografskih ateljea – Ivana Jovanović Gudurić

Danas, 20. aprila 2018. godine u 13h, otvaranje izložbe fotografija “Portreti iz novosadskih fotografskih ateljea”, kustos Ivana Jovanović Gudurić, Mala galerija Doma Vojske Srbije, Braće Jugovića 19

Izložbu čini izbor portretnih fotografija koje su nastale u prvim novosadskim fotografskim ateljeima tokom 19 veka, a koje se čuvaju u fondu Muzeja grada Novog Sada. Fotografski majstori su u ovom periodu načinili brojne portrete različitih generacija novosađanki i novosađana, koji su kroz ovu vrstu fotografija potvrđivli svoj novostečeni status pripadnika građanske klase. Kroz originalne fotografije predstavljene na izložbi moguće je pratiti tehnički i estetski razvoj portretne fotografije u 19. veku, ali i mnoge elemente materijalne i socijalne kulture toga vremena. Izabrane fotografije praćene su tekstovima o uzbudljivim životima i poslovnim karijerama samih fotografa, kao i oglasima iz tadašnje štampe kroz koje su reklamirali svoje usluge.
