Night of the MuseumsPhoton – Centre for Contemporary Photography:
open from 6 pm to 10 pm
19.00: Guided tour for the MUTATIONS II: Moving Stills exhibition (Dejan Sluga)
21.00: Guided tour for the MUTATIONS II: Moving Stills exhibition (Metka Zupanič)
Mutations II aims to question the principles of video by
exploring the productive relationships that have developed between fixed
and moving images and providing a sense of where contemporary art
stands in Europe today. By abandoning its status as a medium for
freezing recorded reality and by borrowing one of its essential
features, namely the temporal dimension, from video art, photography is
becoming emancipated via all kinds of artistic manipulations and
technical hybridizations, both analogue and digital.
National Museum of Slovenia:
open from 10 am to midnight
19.00: Guided tour for the AFTERMATH. CHANGING CULTURAL LANDSCAPE exhibition (Miha Colner)
21.00: Guided tour for the AFTERMATH. CHANGING CULTURAL LANDSCAPE exhibition (Dejan Sluga)
The Aftermath / Changing Cultural Landscape international
project is the first regional research and curatorial platform
established in order to identify and articulate principal tendencies
within the field of contemporary photography in relation to its
immediate environment. The Photonic Moments 2012 festival will put on
display an extensive group exhibition, which will gather in a single
place the principal protagonists from the field of engaged contemporary
photography active in the territory of the former Yugoslavia following
its disintegration (1991–2011).
