Biela noc 2012
„ Biela noc/Nuit Blanche je medzinárodný umelecký projekt, zhmotňujúci túžbu po znovuobjavovaní mestského prostredia, ktoré vďaka umeniu nadobúda iný rozmer.
Mesto sa počas noci mení na interaktívny priestor a jeho bežný nočný cyklus na niekoľko hodín prestáva existovať. Hudobné a svetelné inštalácie vdýchnu nočnému mestu život a noc sa stáva bielou.“
Biela noc je formát akcie na ktorý sa musí kúpiť licencia asi ako na Superstar.
V rámci príprav na Európske hlavné mesto kultúry toto podujatie spĺňa svoje predsavzatie – prilákať čo najväčšie davy ľudí na súčasné umenie. V centre mesta sa naozaj ocitlo množstvo ľudí ako ešte nikdy na podujatie súčasného umenia, každý stretol známych, a každý stál fronty na to aby uvidel to ktoré umenie.
O všeobecnej atmosfére tejto akcii sa dozviete viac z reportáže minuloročnej Bielej noci 2011.
Tento rok som sa zameral viac na pohľad dvoch účastníkov: Dušan Zahoranský a Pavla Sceranková.
- You start first...00:00:31.996
- 00:00:31.996
- So I created three moving objects.00:00:34.354
- 00:00:34.354
- They are called The Hand Treasure or Three Hand Treasures...00:00:39.535
- 00:00:39.535
- .../inspired by me of course/ (laughing)...00:00:46.222
- 00:00:46.222
- yes, by you Dusan, and00:00:50.158
- 00:00:50.158
- well, there is gold treasure here in Kosice00:00:54.915
- 00:00:54.915
- and it used to be a phenomenon for me when I was a kid.00:00:58.257
- 00:00:58.257
- It was and still is hidden in an obsolete building we pass by every day.00:01:02.964
- 00:01:02.964
- Inside this building there was that chest with gold coins.00:01:10.933
- 00:01:10.933
- So I created a moving kaleidoscope00:01:17.279
- 00:01:17.279
- with the opening in its lower part00:01:23.543
- 00:01:23.543
- so that when you move it you can see the earth.00:01:26.863
- 00:01:26.863
- Thanks to the curved mirrors the reflection of the earth forms a globe.00:01:31.162
- 00:01:31.162
- So we observe the earth as a globe00:01:41.859
- 00:01:41.859
- and at the same time, as it is night, the globe has to be spotlighted -00:01:45.152
- 00:01:45.152
- the result is a shining globe in the night.00:01:52.913
- 00:01:52.913
- I paid tribute to the outdoor carpet hanger called "prasiak"00:01:58.378
- 00:01:58.378
- in front of blocks of flats.00:02:03.233
- 00:02:03.233
- I grew up in a housing estate and I used to play on the "prasiak".00:02:04.697
- 00:02:04.697
- I made a deal with the organisators of this exhibition00:02:09.461
- 00:02:09.461
- to make a permanent intervention in the housing estate.00:02:12.681
- 00:02:12.681
- So I transformed a place with old wrecked outdoor carpet hangers into an installation.00:02:17.773
- 00:02:17.773
- It can still be used for beating carpets00:02:28.120
- 00:02:28.120
- but now it involves also a pun too.00:02:31.371
- 00:02:31.371
- We can find different linguistic mutations of the word "home" on it.00:02:35.803
- 00:02:35.803
- Nationalities and communities living in this place,00:02:41.712
- 00:02:41.712
- such as Hungarian, Roma people, Ruthenian also some Hebrew00:02:47.084
- 00:02:47.084
- are all absorbed into the form of this outdoor carpet hanger.00:02:54.470
- 00:02:54.470
- At nights, the object changes its form and00:03:04.763
- 00:03:04.763
- creates a new dimensional composition -00:03:08.166
- 00:03:08.166
- as if a house which can be found only under special light conditions and angle.00:03:11.787
- 00:03:11.787
- There used to exist different art works at housing estates,00:03:21.458
- 00:03:21.458
- some were better other worse,00:03:25.526
- 00:03:25.526
- but it was at least something.00:03:28.420
- 00:03:28.420
- Nowadays, however, the only form of visuality in these places is00:03:31.385
- 00:03:31.385
- the advertisement.00:03:37.750
- 00:03:37.750
- So the commercial aesthetics is the only changing aesthetic value in the public sphere.00:03:39.844
- 00:03:39.844
- That´s really sad indeed.00:03:47.802
- 00:03:47.802
- /Do you think that this is the way,00:03:51.884
- 00:03:51.884
- through these platforms, as Kosice - Nuit Blanche 2013 is./00:03:54.136
- 00:03:54.136
- Well, the platform is limited because it is massive00:03:57.738
- 00:03:57.738
- but at the same time it is a gate for the laic community00:04:03.425
- 00:04:03.425
- so that they can open themselves00:04:09.294
- 00:04:09.294
- to new perspectives or to perceive new values...00:04:14.053
- 00:04:14.053
- This is, however, really a very massive event though...00:04:20.458
- 00:04:20.458
- ...too crowded for art.00:04:27.653
- 00:04:27.653
- We can clearly see that there is the capacity00:05:14.642
- 00:05:14.642
- or thirst of the community for culture or art;00:05:18.727
- 00:05:18.727
- other events, less massive should be organized for people.00:05:24.495
- 00:05:24.495
- I think that events such as Nuit Blanche are a good advertisement.00:05:40.913
- 00:05:40.913
- Cultural events dont always have to be boring and incomprehensible,00:05:54.490
- 00:05:54.490
- quite the opposite -00:06:01.771
- 00:06:01.771
- they can be interesting also for people who00:06:05.855
- 00:06:05.855
- are not so much into art in general.00:06:10.722
