Festival of Contemporary Art godine, kao pilot projekat u saradnji sa Erlin galerijom iz Budimpešte. godine.

ISTORIJA: Festival savremene umetnosti podunavskih zemalja Dunavski dijalozi pokrenula je galerija Bel Art 2012. U nultom izdanju u pretrovaradinskom podgrađu na levoj obali Dunava priređene su četiri izložbe u kojima su učestvovli po jedan mađarski i jedan srpski umetnik. Prvi zvaničan festival na kome je učestvovalo 80 umetnika iz 10 zemalja održan je 2013. Prošle 2014. godine na Dunavskim dijal

ozima na 18 izložbi učestvovalo je 90 umetnika, kuratora i kritičara iz regiona. KONCEPT FESTIVALA je da svaka zemlja iz čitavog regiona, predstavi aktuelnu scenu po izboru selektora iz matične zemlje kroz izložbe i posebne umetničke programe: performanse, video projekcije, okrugle stolove i radionice. COOPERATION EXTENDED: Zanimljivi deo programa Dunavskih dijaloga uveden prošle godine izložbama 235 km, 100 godina: srpski i austrijski umetnici danas priređenim u Zrenjaninu, te u austrijskim gradovima Badenu i Medlingu naslovljen je Cooperation extended. Radi se zapravo o nastavku umetničkih susreta ostvarenih u prethodnom izdanju. Tako će u okviru Dunavskih dijaloga 2015 krajem godine biti priređene izložbe slovačkih umetnika u Muzeju savremene umetnosti Vojvodine i srpskih umetnika u Kunsthale-u u Košicama (Slovačka). Organizatori Festivala kreativno koriste specifičnost Novog Sada i svojim programima povezuju pešačku zonu užeg centra grada. U toku trajanja festivala Novi Sad se transformiše u jedinstven i dinamičan umetnički ambijent. Svedoci smo da se u našem gradu razvija jedinstven festival savremene vizuelne umetnosti na kome se susreću, razmenjuju umetničke ideje, umrežavaju umetnici, kustosi, institucije podunavskog regiona i realizuju zajednički projekti. Festival podržavaju Sekretarijat za kulturu APV, Grad Novi Sad, Ministarstvo kulture Republike Srbije, Austrijski Kulturni Forum, Opština Apatin, brojni partneri i prijatelji. Direktorka festivala: Vesna Latinović
Umetnički direktor: Sava Stepanov

Introducing Serbian artists Nataša Teofilović (slide 1-2), Stevan Kojić (slide 3) and Goran Despotovski (slide 4-5), whose work will be part of the exhibition “Between the Shores”.

Nataša Teofilović (1968) through new media and computer art, investigates the manifestation and identity of the feminine and the sensual within virtual space. Among the many awards she has received, highlights include an Honorary Mention at the Ars Electronica Festival (2016), an Honorary Mention at the inaugural Prix Ars Electronica Collide@CERN (2011), and a jury selection at the 15th Japan Media Arts Festival in Tokyo (2011). She holds a PhD in Digital Arts from the interdisciplinary studies program at the University of Arts in Belgrade.

Stevan Kojić (1973), a visual artist based in Novi Sad, holds a BFA and MFA from the Faculty of Fine Arts in Belgrade, and a PhD from the Academy of Arts in Novi Sad. His long-term cycle, Self-Sustaining System of Absurdity, explores post-ideological survival, technological indiscipline, and the aesthetics of failure. Through experimental ecosystems, Kojić builds sculptural systems and conceptual provocations that question the very notion of sustainability.

Goran Despotovski (1972) graduated from the College of Fine and Applied Arts in Belgrade (1995); he received his bachelor (1999) and master degrees (2003) in painting from the Academy of Arts in Novi Sad, and acquired the title of the Doctor of Arts - Fine Arts (2018).

He is the president of the Union of the Associations of Fine Artists of Vojvodina - SULUV (since 2017).

He continued his studies at the University of California in Santa Barbara and Los Angeles, where he discovered the poetic potential of video in class of Mitsuru Kataoka and delved into the emerging field of computer art with pioneer John Whitney. From 1975, he taught Painting and Drawing at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Belgrade, where he later became Professor Emeritus at the University of Arts.

We are pleased to present Croatian-Serbian duo Vladimir Frelih and Dragan Matić, whose work will be part of the exhibition ”'Between the Shores”.

Vladimir Frelih graduated from the Art Academy Düsseldorf. In his artwork, Frelih often explores the concepts of visualizing the edges of digital and analogue mediums as well as their communication, translatability, and compatibility. The end product, an artwork, is often an aesthetical side effect whether it’s video, video installation, photography, web, computer program, object, or painting in all its variations. Frelih teaches Photography, Video and film, and Multimedia classes at the Art Academy in Osijek. From 2011, he was a guest professor at the Art Academy in Novi Sad.

Dragan Matić received his BFA in art in 1991 and MFA in 2000 from the School of Arts, Novi Sad where he is currently a professor at the Department of Fine Arts.
