O događaju

​(English below)

Kraljevina Koreta je imaginarna država. Kraljevina Koreta je i višegodišnji umjetnički rad Vojislava Klačara. Opredmećena kroz uobičajene političke procese – izbore, konstituisanje parlamenta, formiranje vlade, kongrese političkih partija, i mnoge druge, realizovane posredstvom složenih mehanizama igre, Koreta se publici prikazuje u vidu različitih estetskih formi. 

 

U Galeriji Manifesto, publika je pozvana da uzme učešće u konstituisanju parlamenta Kraljevine Korete nakon održanih dvanaestih parlamentarnih izbora. Rezultati jedanaestih izbora uzrokovali su jednu od najvećih kriza u parlamentarnoj historiji Korete. Uslijed neuspjelih pokušaja da se formira parlamentarna većina, politički akteri Korete na izbore izlaze spremni da napuste svoje stare pozicije i uspostave nove podjele.

 

Kao umjetnički događaj, XII SASTAV PARLAMENTA odigraće se u tri čina. Prolog (I čin) je koncipiran kao kraće izlaganje korpusa smjernica upućenih publici, a koje se tiču opažanja i doživljaja Kraljevine Korete kao umjetničkog rada i međuprostora koji ona ustanovljava. U središnjem (II) činu, zajedno sa publikom, postavlja se parlament, i to uporedo sa razgovorom o političkim partijama i akterima Korete, izbornim rezultatima, mogućim postizbornim koalicijama, ali i o pitanjima učešća u političkom životu, modelima reprezentacije, okulocentrizmu i vizuelnoj kulturi. Nakon uspješnog konstituisanja parlamenta – kao prizora, događaj se okončava intervjuom (III čin) sa Vojislavom Klačarom.

About the Event

The Kingdom of Koreta is an imaginary state. It is also a long-term artistic project by Vojislav Klačar. Brought to life through standard political processes—such as elections, the constitution of parliament, government formation, political party congresses, and many others—and realized through complex gaming mechanisms, Koreta is presented to the audience through various aesthetic forms.

 

At the Manifesto Gallery, the audience is invited to participate in the constitution of the parliament of the Kingdom of Koreta following its twelfth parliamentary elections. The results of the eleventh elections triggered one of the greatest crises in Koreta's parliamentary history. Following failed attempts to form a parliamentary majority, Koreta's political actors enter these elections ready to abandon their old positions and establish new divisions.

 

As an artistic event, THE 12TH PARLIAMENT will unfold in three acts. The Prologue (Act I) is designed as a brief presentation of a set of guidelines for the audience, focusing on the perception and experience of the Kingdom of Koreta as an artwork and the interspace it establishes. In the central act (Act II), the parliament is set up together with the audience, concurrently with a discussion about Koreta’s political parties and actors, election results, potential post-election coalitions, as well as questions of political participation, models of representation, oculocentrism, and visual culture. Following the successful constitution of the parliament—as a spectacle—the event concludes with an interview (Act III) with Vojislav Klačar.

 

THE 12TH PARLIAMENT OF THE KINGDOM OF KORETA represents a continuation of the collaborative work of Vojislav Klačar and Vlatko Ilić. Since 2006, their collaboration has produced artistic works including: Radical Intimacy (Theaterhaus G7, Mannheim 2023); The Soldier's Tale (Belgrade Philharmonic, 2018); Anne Frank, based on The Diary of Anne Frank (National Theatre "Sterija," Vršac 2016); Five Levels, Five Conversations of Dr. Svetolik Plesnik and Dr. Marija Polek (Radio Belgrade, 2016); The Formation of the Xth Government of the Kingdom of Koreta (Hebbel Theater, Berlin 2009), The Founding of the IIIrd University in the Kingdom of Koreta (Geschwister-Scholl-Haus, Leipzig 2008), The Parliamentary History of Koreta (Belef, Belgrade 2007), and others.
