*Big thanks to Jasmina Šušić, a fairiest fairy of them all, for connecting and making magic

This exhibition is one part of an ongoing, multifaceted, visual art project Nevin has been developing since 2010. For this installation, Nevin chose one respondent from each sovereign state in the world to contribute to the project by filming themselves answering a previously unseen question: “What is going to happen next?”

The project is as much about the participant’s verbal response as it is their attitude towards the unknown. A primary aim of the project is to engage citizens of the world in a global cultural experiment that serves to highlight the diversity and complexity of people; opening a door to individuals from all corners of the earth.

“Through this inclusive project, I wish to break down barriers on how Art can be perceived, created and viewed, with an aim to engage, unite and create a spark in people’s lives.” – M. Nevin

Izložba / Lament nad Beogradom || Exhibition / Lament Over Belgrade

Izložba ilustracija Dragane Nikolić po pesmi Miloša Crnjanskog, Lament nad Beogradom

Sreda 19.10.2016.

19:30

Klub galerija Polet

Cetinjska 15, Beograd

Exhibition of illustration on the poem by Miloš Crnjanski

Lament over Belgrade

Dragana Nikolić (1982), grafička dizajnerka i ilustratorka knjiga diplomirala je 2005. godine na Akademiji umetnosti u Novom Sadu, od 2008. član je ULUPUDS-a, a od 2010. radi kao freelance dizajnerka. Umetnički je direktor elektronskog časopisa i izdavaštva Treći Trg. Ilustrator je korica svih njegovih izdanja. Veoma je angažovana na izradi plakata i postera za Beogradski festival poezije i knjige „Trgni se! Poezija!“ Pored projektovanja korica knjiga u izdanju Trećeg Trga ogledala se i u ilustraciji korica knjiga za decu Kreativnog centra i brojnih inostranih izdanja. Bavi se i plakatom, koji je izlagala na dvema samostalnim izložbama u okviru projekta Reč u prostoru u Studentskom kulturnom centru i plakata za Poezin u BIGZ-u. Učestvovala je i na brojnim grupnim izložbama u zemlji i inostranstvu. Više puta je nagrađivana, između ostalog, Zlatnim perom za ilustraciju (2005), nagrade „Bogdan Kršić“ na 59. Beogradskom sajmu knjiga za ilustraciju korica Vislave Šimborske i Tadeuša Ruževiča u izdanju Trećeg Trga. Veoma je uspešna u izradi postera za predstavljanje Poezin slem scene i posterima posvećenim omažima srpskih pesnika: Dušanu Matiću, Milošu Crnjanskom, Vasku Popi, Brani Petroviću, Milošu Komadini i dr. na festivalima Trgni se! Poezija! Pored dizajna bavi se video artom, pravi kratke filmove, piše i interpretira poeziju. Veoma se istakla u tehnici digitalnog kolaža, koju primenjuje u rešavanju korica knjiga koje je ilustrovala, postera i plakata.
Knjižna ilustracija kojom se Dragana Nikolić skoro deceniju tako uspešno bavi odlikuje se nečim veoma zahtevnim, ilustracijom-metaforom, prevodeći književnu sliku u likovnu sliku-metaforu. Uspešnom kako u prikazivanju poezije, tako i proze, antologija, postera i plakata, pre svega izdanja Trećeg Trga, ali i svih ostalih, domaćih i stranih. U pogledu formulacije knjižne ilustracije veoma je bliska sloganu Žana Pola: Umetnost nije hleb već vino života. Odnosno, svojim iskazima zadire duboko u oblast vizuelne antropologije, izražavajući je specifičnim kolažom, fotomontažom, fotografijom, novim, tj. digitalnim tehnikama, mada dajući pomenutim izražajnim formama potpuno drugačiji smer u odnosu na Prvu avangardu. Između ostalog okrećući svet naglavačke. Mada, njene ilustracije ostaju i dalje deo tekstualne informacije, koju potvrđuje i poster za pesmu Lament nad Beogradom Miloša Crnjanskog, koji nastavlja svoje trajanje u galeriji Polet. Jer, i u njemu prikazuje i tumači veoma složenu oblast postojanja: suživot stvarnog i imaginativnog.

Niški kadar, strip izložba

plakat je rad niškog ilustratora Predraga Stamenkovića

Razvoj niške strip scene biće prikazan na retrospektivnoj izložbi Niški kadar od 4. avgusta u Galeriji Srbija, sa početkom od 20 časova. Izložba će trajati do 21. avgusta.
Na izložbi će se predstaviti 37 autora različitih generacija i biće zastupljeni različiti strip žanrovi – komični, vestern, naučno-fantastični, horor, pustolovni, ali i raznovrsni autorski stilovi. Posetioci će moći da vide i radove koji nisu stripovi, ali čiji autori u svom radu koriste elemente stripa.

Na izložbi je predstavljen i jedan moj stari stripić, možda od pre desetak godina, sa glavnim junakom Vladimirom P. mojim drugarom, kao i dva tipografska plakata, koja posredno koriste strip u dizajnu :)

◄ Exhibition "Fifteen, 15" ►

The project “Fifteen, 15” came out of the desire to expand on the conversation between different forms of artistic expression — literature and the visual arts. With this fusion we want to seduce the public into interaction with the interpretations of select short stories. By making this exhibition part of the Festival of the European Short Story, Živi Atelje dk (Living Atelier dk) seeks to bring a different kind of audience, the one that prefers the visual arts, into the world of literature and to give the short stories yet another dimension. Fifteen artists from the region interpreted the work of fifteen authors to honor the celebration of the 15th anniversary of the festival.

Type Plus investigates the practice of combining typography with images to increase effectiveness, potency and visual impact. Today, graphic designers use type in partnership with graphic elements in ways that turbo charge meaning and impact.

Type plus image – or images – can greatly enhance typographic expression. And letter forms themselves, when redrawn, combined, distorted, or augmented with decorative embellishments, can enhance meaning and lend emotive qualities to all kinds of typographic communication.

By focusing on a host of contemporary practitioners from around the world, Type Plus creates a picture of a new dynamism in typographic expression. The era of type as a passive, semi-invisible holder of meaning is long gone.
Book includes interviews with Non Format, Two Points.Net and Erik Brandt.

Kako pevaju kronopiji / Song of The Cronopios by Julio Cortázar

Plakat po priči Hulija Kortasara, na izložbi Godina Kortasar 2014, 

od 2. jula do 15. septembra 2014.

Galerija Instituta Servantes, Beograd

My poster for the story by Julio Cortázar,

on the exhibition in Instituto Cervantes, Belgrade

Kako pevaju kronopiji

Kad kronopiji pevaju svoje omiljene pesme, toliko se zanesu da puštaju da ih gaze kamioni ili obaraju biciklisti, ispadaju kroz prozore, gube stvari iz džepova, pa čak ne znaju ni koji je dan.
Kad kronopio peva, nade i fame prilaze da ga slušaju, iako ne razumeju mnogo njegov zanos, i uopšte, pomalo su zapanjeni. Usred mase kronopio podiže svoje male ruke kao da pridržava sunce, kao da je nebo poslužavnik a sunce glava Jovana Krstitelja, dok je kronopijeva pesma naga Saloma koja igra za fame i nade, a oni je gledaju otvorenih usta, pitajući se a gospodin popa, a pristojnost. Ali, pošto su u osnovi dobri (fame su dobre a nade glupe) na kraju tapšu kronopiju koji se trgne iznenađen, pogleda oko sebe pa i sam počne da tapše, jadnik.


Song of The Cronopios

When the cronopios sing their favourite songs, they get so excited, and in such a way, that with frequency they get run over by trucks and cyclists, fall out of windows and lose what they're carrying in their pockets, even losing track of what day it is.
When a cronopio sing, the esperanzas and famas gather around to hear him, although they do not understand his ecstasy very well and in general show themselves somewhat scandalized. In the center of a ring of spectators, the cronopio raises his little arms as though he were holding up the sun, as if the sky were a tray and the sun the head of John the Baptist, in such a way that the cronopio's song is Salome stripped, dancing for the famas and esperanzas who stand there agape asking themselves if the good father would, if decorum.But because they are good at heart (the famas are good and the esperanzas are blockheads), they end by applauding the cronopio, who recovers, somewhat startled, looks around, and also starts to applaud, poor fellow.

Participating on this year's Psychedelic Art Fair, Dom omladine Belgrade, Saturday, 28th December, from 2pm, you are very welcome :)

Program počinje već od 14 časova u holu sale "Amerikana" Doma omladine Beograda, otvaranjem male "Prodajne izložbe psihodeličnih radova i rukotvorina", na kojoj će posetioci imati priliku da kupe unikatne, rukom izrađene predmete insiprisane ovom estetikom.

Psihodelični vašar se nastavlja od 18 časova u Tribinskoj sali DOB, susretom sa našim najboljim stručnjacima za ovu oblast.

Radovan Hiršl, književnik i Momčilo Rajin, istoričar umetnosti, izložiće nam sve podatke o nastajanju, istorijskom razvitku i sadašnjem trenutku psihodelične umetnosti unutar globalne kulture.

Ipak, centralni događaj ove manifestacije, svakako je koncertno upoznavanje sa izborom aktuelnih beogradskih sastava čije uporište treba tražiti u psihodeličnoj muzici.

Ključni izvođači su Consecration, koji ovom prikom predstavljaju svoj tek izašli album “Univerzum zna”, i posle 25 godina ponovo okupljeni White Rabbit Band, svojevremeno širom Jugoslavije izuzetno cenjeni kultni underground bend.
