Abandoned (re)creation
Projekt Abandoned (re)creation, čiže Opustená (re)kreácia vznikla ako výsledok workshopu študentov umeleckých odborov, ktorí sa snažili aktivovať záujem verejnosti o zdanlivo nepotrebné a zabudnuté lokality Trenčianskych Teplíc a ich architektonického dedičstva.
- Abandoned recreation workshop takes place in Trencianske Teplice00:00:06.622
- 00:00:06.622
- and it focuses on abandoned buildings,00:00:13.807
- 00:00:13.807
- especially on the important functionalist buildings00:00:16.125
- 00:00:16.125
- such as Machnac medical house00:00:19.920
- 00:00:19.920
- and Zelená Zaba thermal baths.00:00:22.116
- 00:00:22.116
- This workshop aims to address to local people00:00:24.843
- 00:00:24.843
- and thermal resort visitors.00:00:28.073
- 00:00:28.073
- The exhibition itself is installed at the town square00:00:34.558
- 00:00:34.558
- and it includes mostly last year's works00:00:39.675
- 00:00:39.675
- that haven't been exposed before00:00:42.100
- 00:00:42.100
- but there are also several works from this year.00:00:44.441
- 00:00:44.441
- One of the last year's highlights is00:00:53.721
- 00:00:53.721
- a work by Monika Pavlechova at Zelená Žaba thermal baths00:00:58.021
- 00:00:58.021
- called Hned pridem - I´ll be back in a minute.00:01:03.662
- 00:01:03.662
- The idea of this project was that00:01:06.784
- 00:01:06.784
- she put a short note "I'll be back in a minute" behind the snack bar window.00:01:09.351
- 00:01:09.351
- It is a typical socialist feature...00:01:16.042
- 00:01:16.042
- At the same time it is a direct reaction to the Zelená Žaba thermal baths00:01:18.563
- 00:01:18.563
- that should have been reconstructed years ago.00:01:24.041
- 00:01:24.041
- Next significant work concerns Lipa hotel-00:01:27.617
- 00:01:27.617
- It is a reaction to the film festival00:01:30.468
- 00:01:30.468
- because there is a red carpet laid in front of the hotel.00:01:32.604
- 00:01:32.604
- However, this carpet is overgrown by savage plants and grasses.00:01:35.848
- 00:01:35.848
- My contribution to this project was that00:01:41.038
- 00:01:41.038
- I painted a balcony on the Machnac medical house to its original colour.00:01:43.762
- 00:01:43.762
- Juraj Gabor´s activity was also very interesting.00:01:49.752
- 00:01:49.752
- He wrote "zelena zaba - green frog" on his back00:01:53.040
- 00:01:53.040
- with a high factor sunscreen00:01:58.616
- 00:01:58.616
- and he exposed his body to the total sunburn.00:02:01.206
- 00:02:01.206
- His skin was then deteriorating in the same way00:02:06.381
- 00:02:06.381
- as the deteriorating architecture of Zelená Žaba thermal baths.00:02:11.126
- 00:02:11.126
- This was really dangerous for one's health.00:02:15.345
- 00:02:15.345
- I have been visiting Film Festival00:02:19.098
- 00:02:19.098
- in Trencianske Teplice for 10 years.00:02:21.111
- 00:02:21.111
- Last 5 years I have been noticing00:02:23.791
- 00:02:23.791
- the environment and architecture around,00:02:26.464
- 00:02:26.464
- not only the movies.00:02:29.875
- 00:02:29.875
- My point is a sort of urban activism00:02:31.491
- 00:02:31.491
- and an attempt to raise an interest in these buildings among locals00:02:35.497
- 00:02:35.497
- and also put some pressure on their owners…00:02:40.812
- 00:02:40.812
- One person can't do much in this issue00:02:44.780
- 00:02:44.780
- that is why I have decided to involve more people into it00:02:47.244
- 00:02:47.244
- and I think it will have some continuation...00:02:52.466
