12th International Multimedial Art Festival - IMAF 2010
Gordana Zlatanovic:
IMAF 12
12th International Multimedial Art Festival – IMAF 2010, held at MAS Gallery (Multimedial Art Studio) in Odzaci, was founded 12 years ago and still is successfully led by author, initiator and creator of this international project Nenad Bogdanovic, performance artist, publisher, curator and owner of MAS Gallery. Nenad is “one of the pioneers of performance art in Serbia and region, he belongs to the group of artists that followed pre-drawn line and successfully affirmed
visual performance leaving a deep trail on modern art scene of Serbia and mid-European art space.”
International Multimedial Art Festival – IMAF is dedicated to the art of performance, artistic media that makes a trail in “performansology” as global art criticism that pays special attention to the art of performance of Balkan artists. Because of the attention we drew to us through the Balkans (civil) war, our temperament, Marina Abramovic and other great performance artists of the first generation, number and quality of the artists presented on IMAF is increasing. After many years of successful existence, is becoming a tradition in the history of Odzaci and contemporary art history of Serbia. We can make a conclusion that the author of the
project and his dedicated, professional and modest team of associates have fulfilled their goals: they became „good place“ to come and enjoy in conceptual art. They have brought worldwide artists to the Serbian audience, successfully propagating not only Serbian but Yugoslavian art scene using only minimal financial means given to them by the state and cultural organizations.
During last 12 years of existence of the multimedial festival, performances and video works of more than 100 international artists were presented. This presentation also contained a rich choice of actual art scene of Serbian and worldwide performance artists of the first, second and the youngest generation. Some of them are: Balint Szombati (Serbia -Hungary), Serbia: Aleksandar Jovanovic, Jovana Dimitrijevic, Marko Bogdanovic, Branko Radakovic, Radoslav B. Chugaly, Dragan Vojvodic, Marko Nektan; Israel: Tamara Raban; Urugay: Klemente Padin; Poland: Slavomir Brozka, Malgorzata Batervik, Paulina Olovska (Poland/Japan); Japan: Hero Itoh; Spain: Angel Pastor; South Korea: Kum Nam Baik, Romania: Uto Gustav i Vajda Eva, Italy: Emilio Morandi, Slovakia: Jozef Juhas.
This year, artists from 9 foreign countries participated on IMAF. As opposed to previous, IMAF started in Spring, May 7th and 8th with Caroline Smith and her art project: „Eating Secret“. Second part of IMAF continued on July 3rd, presenting Tonya McMullan, Irish performance artist. On 17th of September started the 3rd and final part of IMAF presenting several artists from Germany, Sweden, Italy, Peru, Venezuela and Serbia. Audience could see 8 performances, one video, one video performance and 1 video
action. First was Radoslav Čugalj from Serbia, with performance “Mobbing”. Then, Nenad
Bogdanovic (Serbia), with performance “Art = Life (Gamble)”. Heike Pfingsten (Germany):
“Gallon” – performance, Gordana Zlatanovic (Serbia): “Army – man who hates voodoo” -
performance and Caterina Davinio (Italy): video, Pilar Talavera (Peru): “Positive homesick pills the Odzaci chapter” – video performance. Festival continued tomorrow: MP art (Serbia), Dragan Vojvodic (Serbia): “Windows 2010” – performance, Henrik Hedinge (Sweden): “GenderFlux” – performance, Stanisa Krstic (Serbia): “Gentle swing of destruction” – performance, Ana Alenso (Venecuela): “Way” – video-action.

IMAF 12
12. Medjunarodni festival multimedijalne umetnosti - IMAF 2010, koji se održao u prostorijama Galerije MAS ( Studiju za multimedijalnu umetnost) u Odžacima, osnovao je pre 12 godina i uspešno vodi autor, inicijator i kreator ovog medjunarodnog projekta Nenad Bogdanović, likovni i performans umetnik, izdavač i kustos i vlasnik galerije MAS. Nenad je „jedan od pionira umetnosti performansa u Srbiji i šire, pripada grupi umetnika koji su adekvatno nastavili zacrtanom linijom i uspeli da afirmišu vizuelni performans i ostave dubok trag na savremenoj umetničkoj sceni Srbije i srednjeevropskom umetničkom prostoru.“
Medjunarodni festival multimedijalne umetnosti IMAF je posvećen umetnosti performansa, umetničkom mediju koji poslednjih godina ostavlja traga u „performansologiji“ kao svetskoj umetničkoj kritici koja posebnu pažnju posvećuje umetnosti performansa Balkanskih umetnika. Zbog sve veće pažnje, koju smo privukli Balkanskim (bratoubilačkim) ratom, temperamentom, Marinom Abramović i drugim kvalitetnim performans umetnicima prve generacije, povećava se i broj, kao i kvalitet umetnika koji se prezentuju na IMAF-u. IMAF posle višegodišnje uspešne egzistencije, već postaje tradicijom u istoriji Odžaka i savremenoj umetničkoj istoriji Srbije. Možemo da konstatujemo da su autor, inicijator i kreator ovog projekta i njegov veran, profesionalan i skroman tim saradnika ostvarili sve svoje ciljeve, koje su sebi na početku zadali: postali su “dobro mesto” za dolazak i uživanje u konceptualnoj umetnosti. Doveli su umetnike iz celog sveta i približili ih Srpskoj publici. Uspeli su i da propaguju u svetu ne samo Srpsku, već Jugoslovensku umetničku scenu I to sa minimalnim finansijskim sredstvima od strane države i kulturnih organizacija. Tokom proteklih 12 godina postojanja multimedijalnog festivala, prezentovalo se performensima i video radovima više od 100 medjunarodnih umetnika. Bio je predstavljen jedan bogat izbor aktuelne umetničke scene iz Srbije i inostranstva, performens umetnici prve, druge i najmladje generacije. Neki od njih su Balint Sombati (Srbija-Madjarska), Srbija: Aleksandar Jovanović, Jovana Dimitrijević, Marko Bogdanović, Branko Radaković, Radoslav Čugalj, Dragan Vojvodić, Marko Nektan; Izrael: Tamara Raban; Urugvaj: Klemente Padin; Poljska: Slavomir Brožka, Malgorzata Batervik, Paulina Olovska (Poljska/Japan); Japan: Hero Itoh; Španija: Angel Pastor; Južna Koreja: Kum Nam Baik, Rumunija: Uto Gustav i Vajda Eva, Italija: Emilio Morandi, Slovačka: Jozef Juhas.
Ove godine, učestvovali su umetnici iz 9 zemalja sveta. Ove godine, za razliku od predhodnih, IMAF je počeo u proleće, 7. i 8. maja, kada je premijerno i reprizno Britanska umetnica Kerolin Smit performirala projekt: “Eating Secret”. Drugi deo IMAF-a nastavljen je 3. jula, u kom se Odžačkoj umetničkoj publici predstavila Tonja Mekmilan, Irska performans umetnica. Dana 17. Septembra je bio otvoren treći - finalni - deo u kome je publici bilo predstavljeno više autora iz sledećih zemalja: Nemačka, Švedska, Italija, Peru, Venecuela i Srbija. Publika je bila u mogućnosti da vidi: 8 Performansa, 1 video, 1 video performans, 1 video-akciju. Kao prvi predstavio se Radoslav Čugalj iz Srbije, performansom “Mobing”. Zatim, Nenad Bogdanović (Srbija), performansom “Umetnost = Život (Kocka)”. Heike Pfingsten (Nemačka): “Boca” – performans, Gordana Zlatanović (Srbija): “Vojska – čovek koji mrzi vudu” - performans i Caterina Davinio (Italija): video radom “Prvi poetski spejsšatl sletanje u drugi život”. Pilar Talavera (Peru): “Tablete za pozitivnu nostalgiju poglavlje Odžaci” – video performans. Festival je nastavljen i sutradan: MP art (Srbija), Dragan Vojvodić (Srbija): “WINDOWS 2010” – performans, Henrik Hedinge (Švedska): “GenderFlux” – performans, Stanisa Krstić (Srbija): “Nežni zamah uništenja” – performans, Ana Alenso (Venecuela): “Put” – video-akcija. Ove godine generalni sponzor IMAF-a je bilo Ministarstvo kulture Republike Srbije i više manjih sponzora iz opštine Odžaci, takodje i Artmagazin.
IMAF 2010 je ove godine ponudio publici maksimalno prijatno doživljavanje estetskih, intermedijalnih, multimedijalnih i mentalnih umetničkih pojava i poruka ove sve više popularne forme akcione umetnosti.
