Exhibition opening: Ballet on the street by Miha KacafuraEXHIBITION OPENING: BALLET ON THE STREET BY MIHA KACAFURA

27.08.24

Wednesday, 11 September, 17:00, the Lobby

The series of photographs depicting ballet and ballet dancers in a rather unusual setting – instead of the stage, they are on the street. According to some definitions, dancing is an art that allows the connection of various areas: music, drama, and even visual arts, since it builds aesthetic sensibility – experiencing the beautiful. The author connects sensual expression of the ballet dancers with the rhythm and the beating of the street, the spirit of the town, and the passers-by, which brings the art of dancing closer to the audience.

The exhibition is a part of Photography Festival.

Andrej PerkoEXHIBITION OPENING: THE CORROSION* OF CIVILIZATION BY ANDREJ PERKO

27.08.24

Tuesday, 10 September 2024, 17:00, Art Exhibition Hall

Through the exhibit, the author reflects on the word corrosion* – gnawing, decomposing, decaying (from lat. “con + rodere”). He describes his creating process as it follows: “With acid I etch the iron, I moist and dry it, I expose it to the physical and chemical factors, adding salt while simultaneously taking photos of emerges – be it spontaneous or due to my small interventions.

As if at an occultist séance, the anthropomorphic and zoomorphic creatures or postapocalyptic lands emerge. Where caustic rain washes the abandoned and scorched grounds and surprised blind eyes of an unrecognizable being stare at us as if wanting to give a warning that the time is running out, into the dark future.”

The exhibition is a part of Photography Festival.
