THE PROJECT / O PROJEKTU

The wood industry in the Danube region, as well as other industries which are based on a timber, have the potential to become the motor of a viable and competitive economy, but, unfortunately, suffer from a significant difference, with a low level of internationalization, the lack of co-operation, and so the lack of innovation. Hence arose the project FORESDA to support the transformation of traditional sectors resting on forestry in the Danube region. / Drvna industrija u Dunavskom regionu, kao i druge privredne grane koje su oslonjene na šumarstvo, imaju potencijal da postanu motor održive i konkurentne privrede, ali nažalost, pate od značajnih razlika, niskog nivoa internacionalizacije, nedostatka saradnje, nedostatka inovacija itd.

Call for Artists: BLACK BOX ART COMPETITION

MIKSER FESTIVAL AND THE FACULTY OF APPLIED ARTS IN BELGRADE ANNOUNCE THE "BLACK BOX" ART COMPETITION / MIKSER FESTIVAL I FAKULTET PRIMENJENIH UMETNOSTI U BEOGRADU RASPISUJU UMETNIČKI KONKURS "BLACK BOX" 

Mikser Festival and the Academy of Applied Arts in Belgrade invite authors to participate in the competition for artworks which will be presented at the Mikser Festival, from 25 to 28 May 2017, in Žitomlin silos, at lower Dorćol / Mikser festival i Fakultet primenjenih umetnosti u Beogradu pozivaju autore da učestvuju na konkursu za umetničke radove koji će biti predstavljeni u okviru predstojećeg Mikser festivala, od 25. do 28. maja 2017, u silosima Žitomlina na donjem Dorćolu

ABOUT THE PROJECT / O PROJEKTU

The "Black Box" project was created in 2015 in cooperation of Mikser Festival and Faculty of Applied Arts in Belgrade as a platform to support the development of young artists in the field of fine arts and the presentation of their work to the general public. With a current topic, 100 authors selected by the competition jury gets presented each year./ Projekat “Black Box” nastao je 2015. godine u saradnji Mikser Festivala i Fakulteta primenjenih umetnosti u Beogradu kao platforma za podršku razvoja mladih autora iz oblasti likovnih umetnosti i prezentacije njihovog stvaralaštva u najširoj javnosti. Uz aktuelnu temu, svake godine predstavlja se 100 autora odabranih na konkursu od strane stručnog žirija.

The aim of the project is to emphasize the problem that burdens the young artists in the contemporary social context, to empower them to publicly express their visions and contribute to the solution of social problems, and improve life in the community / Cilj projekta je ukazivanje na problematiku koja opterećuje mlade stvaraoce u savremenom društvenom kontekstu, njihovo osnaživanje da se javno izraze i svojim vizijama doprinesu rešenju društvenih problema, te unapređenju života u zajednici. 

The project highlights the importance of art installations in alternative urban spaces, their accessibility to a wide audience, as well as the connection between artistic practice with other spheres of life - science, technology, economy and society. / Projekat ističe i značaj umetničkih instalacija u alternativnim gradskim prostorima, njihovu dostupnost širokoj publici, kao i povezanosti umetničke prakse sa ostalim sferama života - naukom, tehnologijama, ekonomijom i društvom.

2017 THEME: "FALL TO THE FUTURE" / TEMA 2017: „PAD U BUDUĆNOST“ 

Black Box 2017 probe vision of the near future of the young generation of artists, under the symptomatic title "The Fall to the Future." Maturing on the ruins of an institutional culture, with no new ideas, plans and visions, plunged into complete hibernation, an entire generation found itself in an endless space without perspective, surrounded by walls of inability and limits for creative work. / Black Box 2017 sondira vizije bliske budućnosti mlade generacije umetnika, pod simptomatičnim naslovom „Pad u budućnost“. Stasavajući na razvalinama institucionalne kulture koja je, bez svežih ideja, planova i vizije, zaronila u potpunu hibernaciju, čitava jedna generacija našla se u bezizlaznom prostoru bez perspektiva, opasana zidovima nemogućnosti i ograničenjima za stvaralački rad. "Black Box" is a synonym for narrowness, but also a chance to accumulate energy necessary for the demolition of the walls. What awaits us behind them is a complete mystery. Is it an inevitable chasm, to which we are giving ourselves in to, in the free fall, or the tomorrow, sufficiently uncertain leaving the a chance for open scenarios for whose denouement we have to take far more ambitious role than a mere observer? Behind the wall is definitely the future, what kind, we'll find out at the Mikser Festival. Crna kutija“ je sinonim za skučenost, ali i šansa za akumuliranje energije neophodne za rušenje zidova. Šta nas čeka iza zidova, potpuna je nepoznanica. Da li sasvim izvesna provalija kojoj se prepuštamo slobodnim padom ili sutrašnjica dovoljno neizvesna da ostavlja šansu otvorenim scenarijima u čijim raspletima moramo uzeti daleko ambiciozniju ulogu od pukog posmatrača? Iza zida je svakako budućnost, kakva, saznaćemo na Mikser Festivalu. Black Box competition invites artists to anticipate the state of the society and the events that follow, defining their position in such a future. The dichotomy that carries this year's slogan: "The Fall to the Future" reflects the main objectives of the competition - raising questions about the relationship of young people towards the circumstances that seemingly they can not influence, and provoking the proactive attitude that is able to initiate change. Black Box Konkurs poziva umetnike da anticipiraju stanje društva i događaje koji slede, definišući svoju poziciju u takvoj budućnosti. Dihotomija koju nosi ovogodišnji slogan: „Pad u budućnost“ odražava glavne ciljeve konkursa - otvaranje pitanja o odnosu mladih prema okolnostima na koje naizgled ne mogu da utiču, te provociranje proaktivnog stava koji je u stanju da pokrene promene. 

THE SUBJECT OF THE COMPETITION / PREDMET KONKURSA 

Artists are invited to respond to the theme of the competition through the micro-artistic interventions on a very limited given space of a black cube, and based on the anatomy of personal intimate visions, to contribute to open a wider subject about possible alternative scenarios for the collective well-being. There is no limit in selection of artistic techniques, but it is desirable to deliver ideas as premiere concepts. / Umetnici su pozvani da odgovore na temu konkursa kroz mikro-umetničke intervencije na veoma ograničenom zadatom prostoru crne kocke, i na osnovu anatomije ličnih, intimnih vizija doprinesu da se otvori šira tema o mogućim alternativnim scenarijima za kolektivni boljitak. Ne postoji ograničenje u odabiru umetničke tehnike, ali je poželjno da dostavljena rešenja budu premijerni koncepti.
