TAMARA MOYZES
Tamara Moyzes nevolí vo svojej tvorbe akademický prístup, jej diela sú priamou intervenciou – skutočnosť nekomentuje z diaľky, ale vstupuje do centra diania. Ľudia v jej fiktívnych dokumentoch nie sú herci a ich umelecká „rola“ je len zvýraznením a domyslením ich reálneho postavenia. Na formulovanie súčasných spoločenských kontroverzií volí autorka zmes dokumentárnych, patetických a humorných záberov. Parodické spracovanie je však stratégiou, ktorá situáciu neodľahčuje, skôr prezentuje výbušný obsah v pre nás stráviteľnej podobe.
- The thing that repeats in my work00:00:17.489
- 00:00:17.489
- is that I work on the basis of information,00:00:26.797
- 00:00:26.797
- on the basis of real situations.00:00:30.582
- 00:00:30.582
- I am a political artist, but also an activist.00:00:33.110
- 00:00:33.110
- So the sources come from my own activities or newspapers.00:00:36.157
- 00:00:36.157
- Except this real basis, there is a fiction that00:00:43.990
- 00:00:43.990
- helps me to catch the question I would like to express.00:00:48.863
- 00:00:48.863
- I am working on this project.00:00:59.469
- 00:00:59.469
- It contains 8 photos00:01:02.566
- 00:01:02.566
- that were taken by several photographers00:01:04.510
- 00:01:04.510
- or better to say my friends.00:01:06.770
- 00:01:06.770
- One of them is sitting here.00:01:08.929
- 00:01:08.929
- It is Dana Kolářová.00:01:10.960
- 00:01:10.960
- I like to cooperate in my work00:01:18.555
- 00:01:18.555
- because of the possibility of the second view.00:01:23.427
- 00:01:23.427
- Together we took pictures of 8 famous people.00:01:28.699
- 00:01:28.699
- For instance, Aňa Geislerová, Ali Amiri, Tomio Okamura.00:01:32.467
- 00:01:32.467
- In fact, I addressed "foreign" people.00:01:39.248
- 00:01:39.248
- However, they were accepted by the Czech society.00:01:43.544
- 00:01:43.544
- That´s the reason why it is called "Czech Selection".00:01:48.327
- 00:01:48.327
- For a half year I´ve been looking00:01:52.378
- 00:01:52.378
- for the cases of extremism either on the pages of the Home Office00:01:54.440
- 00:01:54.440
- or with the help of other involved organizations.00:01:58.667
- 00:01:58.667
- Every person representing its nation will embody some case.00:02:01.347
- 00:02:01.347
- According to the cases they are scarred.00:02:08.853
- 00:02:08.853
- Fortunately, this is fiction.00:02:12.607
- 00:02:12.607
- Together with Darina Alster00:02:26.043
- 00:02:26.043
- we work on a project called Bianca Braselli.00:02:27.453
- 00:02:27.453
- She met Benedict.00:02:33.197
- 00:02:33.197
- For me it was very important to be in the media.00:02:35.160
- 00:02:35.160
- I appeared in Blesk, Metro and Aha.00:02:38.837
- 00:02:38.837
- The biggest tabloids.00:02:41.983
- 00:02:41.983
- For me as an engaged artist00:02:44.328
- 00:02:44.328
- it is great to appear there. It is kind of public space.00:02:46.188
- 00:02:46.188
- If you compare the numbers of printings with the magazines like Respekt or A2.00:02:49.239
- 00:02:49.239
- It is incredible.00:02:55.990
- 00:02:55.990
- Of course, the comments of this happening is a mess.00:02:58.223
- 00:02:58.223
- It says: "The lesbians got dressed in one dress and etc."00:03:01.542
- 00:03:01.542
- They didn´t understood the whole message.00:03:03.839
- 00:03:03.839
- The fact that the fight for00:03:06.372
- 00:03:06.372
- the reformation of the Church was realized was very important to us.00:03:09.079
- 00:03:09.079
- An article in the magazine Respekt should00:03:17.031
- 00:03:17.031
- appear that would improve our reputation that would inform more on this happening.00:03:20.871
- 00:03:20.871
- "TV_t error" is a pure fiction00:03:37.603
- 00:03:37.603
- when I decided to go to the shopping centre Anděl and asked people00:03:39.634
- 00:03:39.634
- if they think that Romany terrorists could exist?00:03:42.570
- 00:03:42.570
- Do you think that Romanies are discriminated?00:03:44.784
- 00:03:44.784
- Yes, I think so.00:03:48.053
- 00:03:48.053
- Do you think that the Czech Republic is threatened by a terrorist attack?00:03:50.665
- 00:03:50.665
- You mean like that the Romanies would attack us.00:03:54.319
- 00:03:54.319
- Where would they take the money?00:03:57.501
- 00:03:57.501
- So, there is no threat.00:03:59.810
- 00:03:59.810
- I don´t think so.00:04:01.437
- 00:04:01.437
- The majority of the answers showed not only lack of respect, but00:04:03.299
- 00:04:03.299
- also there was total absence of fear that something like this could happen.00:04:11.686
- 00:04:11.686
- This was interesting to me.00:04:20.745
- 00:04:20.745
- I lived in Israel.00:04:26.111
- 00:04:26.111
- I even spent some years of my activism in Palestine.00:04:27.388
- 00:04:27.388
- There is such a mess.00:04:30.687
- 00:04:30.687
- However, I like this kind of near eastern mess.00:04:33.149
- 00:04:33.149
- It doesn´t mean that people are incapable to do such things.00:04:36.665
- 00:04:36.665
- I made 5 videos.00:04:40.821
- 00:04:40.821
- 00:04:45.810
- 00:04:45.810
- 00:04:45.810
- They are replicas of the history of terrorism.00:04:48.409
- 00:04:48.409
- One of them explains how a bomb is made.00:04:51.874
- 00:04:51.874
- It is made on the basis of the video by somebody called The Engineer.00:04:58.189
- 00:04:58.189
- The Israelis managed to kill him.00:05:05.826
- 00:05:05.826
- He made such a video.00:05:12.375
- 00:05:12.375
- It has really changed the situation in Israel00:05:16.618
- 00:05:16.618
- cause since then home made bombs have started to be made.00:05:20.489
- 00:05:20.489
- The bomb should be activated on the spot of assassination.00:05:26.305
- 00:05:26.305
- I hope you are aware of the fact why you want to be killed.00:05:33.328
- 00:05:33.328
- Romanies! Stay with the God!00:05:37.595
- 00:05:37.595
- I created the video Miss Roma together with my friends that are activists.00:05:47.668
- 00:05:47.668
- It is a very simple, short video where Miss Roma 200600:05:54.481
- 00:05:54.481
- is changed into a white woman with the help00:06:00.888
- 00:06:00.888
- of the professional visagiste Blanka Pešková.00:06:04.222
- 00:06:04.222
- The soundtrack is from the competition.00:06:09.268
- 00:06:09.268
- At the beginning, there is a title00:06:14.740
- 00:06:14.740
- that introduces the political issue.00:06:17.768
- 00:06:17.768
- It says the places where she wasn´t allowed to enter.00:06:20.313
- 00:06:20.313
- I went through it with them.00:06:28.716
- 00:06:28.716
- I was really shocked.00:06:31.697
- 00:06:31.697
- I grew up in Slovakia together with Romany friends.00:06:34.477
- 00:06:34.477
- The Slovaks are racists as well.00:06:37.775
- 00:06:37.775
- However, I have never experienced something like this there.00:06:41.834
- 00:06:41.834
- "Family Happiness"00:06:48.674

- 00:06:52.354
- whose children were taken due the to lack of money.00:06:55.149
- 00:06:55.149
- The civic society "Mutual Coexistence"00:06:58.581
- 00:06:58.581
- and its lawyers help them to get their children back.00:07:02.265
- 00:07:02.265
- I was there when their children came to visit them at the weekends.00:07:07.487
- 00:07:07.487
- I knew that they were going to do a happening in the Parliament.00:07:13.059
- 00:07:13.059
- The families came there.00:07:21.576
- 00:07:21.576
- They brought the photos with them.00:07:24.507
- 00:07:24.507
- The politicians participated as well.00:07:28.928

- 00:07:35.508
- whole family is caught sitting in a sofa and the faces of00:07:41.049
- 00:07:41.049

- 00:08:48.360
- it may be problem.00:08:50.239
