> VOYAGE D’HIVER I Robert Cahen, 1993
Robert Cahen velja za enega najpomembnejših francoskih video umetnikov. V Cahenovem edinstveno niansiranem svetu sta tako fikcija kot dokument predstavljena kot metaforična potovanja v domišljijo, izvrstna sanjarjenja, ki opisujejo prehode časa, kraja, spomina in zaznavanja. Antarktika je tema tega vizualno močnega potovanja v neznano.
Recognized as one of France’s foremost video artists. In Cahen’s uniquely nuanced world, fiction and document alike are presented as metaphoric voyages of the imaginary, exquisite reveries that describe passages of time, place, memory and perception. The Antarctic is the subject of this visually powerful journey into the unfamiliar.

Selitev (Relocation) Heimat pt. 2 I Zazzaro Otto
Heimat je nemška beseda, ki označuje pripadnost kraju ali, še bolje, občutek, da si doma, kar vodi nazaj k družinski razsežnosti. Heimat je tudi ime podjetja za selitve, natančneje s.r.l., ki na ta način uvaja koncept premestitve v nasprotju z domačim vidikom, ki ga napoveduje nemška beseda. Tako se pojavi konfliktni vidik med tistim, kar bi moralo biti stabilno, in tistim, kar je namesto tega v gibanju.
Heimat is a German word for belonging to a place or, better still, feeling at home, which leads back to the family dimension. Heimat is also the name of a relocation company, more specifically a s.r.l., which in this way introduces the concept of relocation as opposed to the home aspect that the German word implies. Thus, a conflicting aspect arises between what should be stable and what is instead in motion.

IN TRANSIT
SFO…PVG…LHR…MEX…LAX I Chip Lord, 2011
21:30 min, Courtesy of Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI), New York.
Chip Lord v svojih delih združuje družbeno opazovanje in satirični humor ter se osredotoča na ameriške mite in ikone, od kulta avtomobila do bejzbola, oglaševanja, predmestja in televizije. Lord, ustanovni član večmedijskega kolektiva Ant Farm iz San Francisca, raziskuje, kako našo kolektivno identiteto in vsakdanje življenje določa potrošniška kultura, ki jo poganjajo mediji. Lordovo zanimanje za arhitekturo in urbani javni prostor je privedlo do serije video del, ki dokumentirajo in raziskujejo vprašanja urbane geografije in načrtovanja. In Transit je opazovan portret prostorov, ki pogosto veljajo za ne-prostore letalskega potovanja. Film se giblje od San Francisca do Šanghaja, od Pekinga do Londona in od Frankfurta do Mexico Cityja, čeprav so ti geografski skoki komaj zaznavni v notranjosti letališč ali v obnašanju potnikov. Na koncu gledalcu ostane podoba potovanja z letalom, ki je v enaki meri znanstvena fantastika in vzvišena.
Merging social observation with satirical humor, Chip Lord’s work focuses on American myths and icons, from the cult of the automobile to baseball, advertising, suburbia and television. Lord, a founding member of the San Francisco-based multi-media collective Ant Farm, examines how our collective identity and everyday life are defined by a consumer-based, media-driven culture. Lord’s interest in architecture and urban public space has led to the production of a series of video works that document and explore issues of urban geography and planning. In Transit is an observed portrait of the spaces—often considered non-places—of air travel. It moves from San Francisco to Shanghai, Beijing to London, and Frankfurt to Mexico City, though these geographic leaps are barely perceptible in the airport interiors or the travelers’ behavior. The viewer is ultimately left with an image of air travel that is equal parts science fiction and the sublime.

KATALENA
Katalena je nastopila v tako rekoč vsakem klubu, koncertni dvorani ali festivalskem odru v državi, pa tudi kar precej potovala, z nastopi v ZDA, Izraelu ter po večjem delu Evrope. Skupina, ki v originalni postavi nastopa že 22 let, se ne ustavlja, saj so nedavno izdali deveti album “Kužne pesmi”.

MARK POŽLEP
Mark Požlep (rojen 1981, Slovenija) je diplomiral in magistriral na Akademiji za likovno umetnost in oblikovanje v Ljubljani ter opravil nadaljevalni magistrski študij transmedije na Sint-Lukas Campus v Bruslju in HISK v Gentu. Deluje na področju vizualnih in performativnih umetnosti, prostorskih instalacij in video umetnosti. Njegova umetniška praksa vključuje potovanja, ki delujejo kot dolgotrajna performativna/ vzdržljivostna umetnost in kot samostojno umetniško delo. Gre za intenzivno proceduralno raziskovanje z uporabo metodologije akcijskega raziskovanja, cikličnega vzorca opazovanja in refleksije.
Mark Požlep (born 1981, Slovenia) finished his BA and MA at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana and completed an Advanced Master’s Degree in Transmedia at the Sint-Lukas Campus in Brussels and HISK in Ghent. He works in the field of visual and performative arts, spatial installations and video art. His artistic practice involves journey-travels, which function both as long-durational performance/endurance art and as an art piece in itself. It is an intense procedural exploration, using the methodology of action-research, cyclical pattern of observation and reflection.

SOUTHWIND, 2022, 1h 12m
Maxime Berthou, Mark Požlep
Drugi celovečerni film Maxima Berthouja in Marka Požlepa “Southwind (Južni veter)” je nastal kot rezultat umetniškega performansa, ki ga je vodil isti francosko-slovenski dvojec. Ta projekt, ki je vključeval spust po Mississipiju na krovu doma narejenega parnika, je bil namenjen preučevanju gospodarskega in ekološkega vpliva koruzne monokulture na rečnih bregovih. Njuno potovanje se je začelo nekaj mesecev po eni največjih poplav v ameriški zgodovini in končalo le nekaj tednov pred začetkom pandemije COVID-19 in koncem mandata Donalda Trumpa. Med potovanjem po “telesu naroda” film razkriva portret Amerike med dvema krizama.
The second feature film by Maxime Berthou and Mark Požlep, ‘Southwind’ is a film that emerged from the materialisation of an artistic performance led by the same French-Slovenian duo. This project, which included a descent down the Mississippi aboard a home-made steamboat, was designed to study the economic and ecological impact of corn monoculture on river banks.Their journey began months after one of the biggest floods in American history and ended just weeks before the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and the end of Donald Trump’s term. As they travel through the “body of the nation”, the film reveals a portrait of America during two crises.

AKA Neomi
Saša Vipotnik (vokal / vocal), Mario Babojelić (kitara / guitar), Marko Grubar (bobni / drums)
Zvok AKA Neomi se od leta 2011 razvija in premišljeno vijuga med indie popom in trip hopom, med akustično balado in psihadeličnim noise-om ter se zadnje čase spogleduje tudi z disko popom. Skupina AKA Neomi je od svojih začetkov do danes obredla številne odre, med drugim je nastopila na MENTu, avstrijskem Waves Vienna, portugalskem Westway Labu ter nizozemskem Eurosonicu in delila oder s Roisin Murphy na njenem ljubljanskem koncertu.
Since 2011, AKA Neomi’s sound has been evolving and deliberately meandering between indie pop and trip hop, between acoustic ballads and psychedelic noise, and more recently, flirting with disco pop. AKA Neomi has graced many stages since its inception, including MENT, Austria’s Waves Vienna, Portugal’s Westway Lab, Eurosonic in the Netherlands and sharing the stage with Roisin Murphy at her Ljubljana concert.

Maxime Berthou, Mark Požlep
Hogshead 733 je umetniški projekt Maxima Berthouja in Marka Požlepa, ki vključuje potovanje, morsko pustolovščino, zgodbo o dediščini, prijateljstvu in viskiju. Proces spremlja obnovo tipične lesene ribiške ladje iz leta 1941, njeno zadnje 733 milj dolgo jadranje in končno preobrazbo ladje, prepojene z morjem in pustolovščino, v dva sodčka za viski. Vsaka posebej izbrana faza daje možnost raziskovanja poetike specifičnega strokovnega ročnega dela: gradnje čolna, jadranja, izdelave sodov in proizvodnje viskija. Od 23. avgusta do 21. septembra 2015 je potekalo potovanje od Trebeurdna v Bretanji do otoka Islay na Škotskem z 20 postanki na poti.
Hogshead 733 is an artistic project by Maxime Berthou and Mark Požlep that includes a journey, a sea adventure, story of heritage, friendship & whiskey. The process follows the restoration of a typical 1941 wooden fishing boat, her last 733 miles sailing journey, and final transformation of the boat, soaked with sea and adventure into two whisky barrels. Every specially chosen stage gives a possibility to research the poetics of a specific manual labor expertise: boat building, sailing, barrel making and whisky production. A journey from Trebeurden Brittany to the island Islay in Scotland was undertaken with 20 stops en route, from 23 August until 21 September, 2015.
