About the exhibition 

(Bosanski ispod)

 

 Gallery of Contemporary Arts Manifesto is pleased to invite you to the opening of the exhibition "We ran through the walls. " The exhibition will present the works of the ZVONO Group, the pioneers of video art in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The opening will take place on Friday, February 9, at 7:00 p.m.

 

The ZVONO Group exhibition, curated by Kristina Ljevak Bajramović, is the first in a series of exhibitions within the program "Images in motion – ideologies in transition."

It is a curatorial project whose goal is to explore and present the achievements of video art in BiH and create opportunities for the production of new video artworks, simultaneously problematizing and contextualizing contemporary ideological struggles.

 

At the exhibition dedicated to ZVONO Group in Manifesto, we will see some extraordinary artistic breakthroughs - whether their work meant standing motionless in the shop window or running out to the football stadium during halftime of one of the most prominent Yugoslav derbies.

 

If one had to determine the narrative line that connects ZVONO's overall work, then it would be the comprehension of the unbreakable connection between nature and society, i.e., understanding a man inclined to nature and society with equal passion. Their works were created at the mouths and tributaries of some of the rivers in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Still, some resulted from the need to follow the urban rhythm of everyday life. However, all were created with equal dedication to remind in every situation how vital art is, even more so those who uncompromisingly create it.

O izložbi

Galerija savremenih umjetnosti Manifesto sa zadovoljstvom vas poziva na otvorenje izložbe “Protrčali smo kroz zidove”, kojom će se predstaviti radovi rodonačelnika video umjetnosti u Bosni i Hercegovini – Grupe ZVONO. Otvorenje će biti upriličeno u petak, 9. februara, u 19:00 sati. 

 

Izložba Grupe ZVONO, a koju kustoski potpisuje Kristina Ljevak Bajramović, prva je u nizu izložbu u okviru programa „Images in motion – ideologies in transition // Slike u pokretu – ideologije u tranziciji”.
Riječ je o kustoskom projektu kojem je cilj istražiti i predstaviti ostvarenja video umjetnosti u BiH, ali i kreirati mogućnosti za produkciju novih radova, istovremeno problematizirajući i kontekstualizirajući savremene ideološke borbe. 

Na izložbi posvećenoj ZVONU u Manifestu vidjećemo neke od nesvakidašnjih umjetničkih iskoraka, bilo da je njihovo djelo podrazumijevalo nepomično stajanju u izlogu robne kuće ili istrčavanje na nogometnom stadion u poluvremenu jednog od najvećih jugoslovenskih derbija.

Ako bi se morala determinisati narativna linija koja povezuje njihovo ukupno djelo, onda bi to bila spoznaja o neraskidivoj vezi između prirode i društva, odnosno čovjeka koji s jednakom strašću inklinira i jednom i drugom. S jednakom posvećenošću nastajali su njihovi radovi na ušćima i pritokama nekih od bosanskohercegovačkih rijeka, kao i oni koji su bili rezultat potrebe prisustva onome što je urbani ritam svakodnevice, da svaki put u svakoj situaciji, podsjećaju koliko je umjetnost važna, a još više oni koji se njom beskompromisno bave.
