ART STAYS, 10th Festival of Contemporary Art 2003 - 2012

(Jernej Forbici, Art Director)

The ART STAYS International Festival of Contemporary Art, one of the most important contemporary

art festivals in Europe, is celebrating its 10th anniversary and will bring together contemporary,

mainly visual artists from all over the world.

This year's festival will be held under the slogan DISPLAY (screen/show!). The word display has many

meanings, but all of them fit perfectly with the aim of the festival. It is a shopwindow, a space, and a

dialogue that we opened with many artists who will come to Ptuj to display their work, carry out a

performance, or be a part of our artist in residence programme to get creative in the oldest town in

Slovenia.

In the year when the Art Stays festival is part of the European Capital of Culture, some of the

greatest names of the contemporary art scene will be hosted: Venice Biennale Golden Lion Award

winner in 2005, Regina Jose Galindo from Guatemala, Indian artist Gigi Scaria, presented in the

Indian Pavilion at the Venice Biennale in 2011, established Polish artist Lech Majewski, Tonis Saadoja

from Estonia, one of the most important Fluxus (celebrating its 50th anniversary) artists, Yoko Ono,

Ilona Nemeth from Slovakia, Chilean artists Fernando Prats and Ivan Navarro, Hungarian artists

Laszlo Laszlo Revesz and Eike Berg, German-Kenyan couple IngridMwangiRobertHutter, one of the

most important Vietnamese artists Tiffany Chung, Raymundo Sesma from Mexico, Lateefa Bint

Maktoum from United Arab Emirates, as well as younger, emerging artists such as Marco Bernardi,

Roberto Fassone, and Elena Mazzi from Italy, Kinki Texas and Christiane Draffehn from Germany,

Zoie So from Hong Kong, Jose Molina from Spain, Kensuke Koike from Japan, Marlon de Azambuja

from Brazil, Cyryl Zakrzewski from Poland and Slovenian artists such as son:DA and Dušan Kirbiš.

The festival will also host daily lectures by artists and curators, as well as workshops as part of the

Summer Academy that will take place during the festival.

The program consists of presentations of contemporary art from 26 European countries and six

other continents and special projects, such as the presentation of installations by European

academies, light art installations and performances, live media sets by Italian artists, musical

performances by artists from the U.S., Germany and Italy, everyday DJ sessions and much more.

A group of curators, in collaboration with the leading organizations and galleries from around the

world, has produced a festival that reaffirms the important role played by Art Stays in the European

art scene.

PROJECTS:

EUROPE Grand exhibition of contemporary European art. To commemorate the European capital of culture,

the curatorial team of this year's festival has chosen artists from 26 European countries and invited

them to Ptuj. The diverse exhibition ranges from painting, photography, and video to spatial

installations and events such as live media sets and performances. The exhibition was prepared in

collaboration with prominent European public and private institutions, and it presents a rich

selection of artworks by over forty important European artists: from the great Slovakian artist Ilona

Nemeth to the great Polish video artist Lech Majewski, from renowned Estonian Tonis Saadoja to

younger, but equally important artists, such as Marco Bernardi from Italy, Kinki Texas from Germany,

and Jose Molina from Spain. The presentation of Europe will be rounded off with evening

performances (Paolo Angelosanto, The Area of Bustle, Elena Mazzi …) and lectures and workshops by

European artists and curators.

AFRICA Contemporary African art was a mystery to many people, but after the presentation at the 52nd

Venice Biennale in 2007 the interest in African art has greatly increased. A long-standing wish of the

organizers of the Art Stays festival will finally come true with the African Pavilion in the Magistrat

Gallery, where works of 10 renowned African artists will be presented. This is a superb exhibition of

paintings and photographs by artists who were presented at the 2007 Venice Biennial – including

Egyptian George Fikry and Kenyan-German couple IngridMwangiRobertHutter.

ASIA The great diversity of the Asian continent is also evident in its contemporary art scene. Thus, we have

invited artists from the Middle and Far East – the festival presents a selection of ten artists with very

different approaches to contemporary art. The exhibition will feature installations by two

Vietnamese artists, Tiffany Chung and Trong Gia Nguyen, photographs by Chinese artist Chen Nong,

very interesting works by two female Arab artists from the United Arab Emirates, Hind Bin

Demaithan and Maitha Demithan, videos by India's representative at last year's Venice Biennale Gigi

Scaria, works by Japanese artist Kensuke Koike, and the European premiere of the Indian-

Singaporean-Australian theatrical production Infinite Saree, Biological Arts Theatre. The presentation

of the Asian Pavilion will be completed with a light art performance by Chinese artist Zoie So.

SOUTH AMERICA South American art is famous for its politically and socially critical artists. One of the most important

projects of this year's festival has emerged under the leadership of curator Antonio Arevalo. Probably

one of the most important representatives of performance art of the 21st century Regina Jose

Galindo, winner of the Golden Lion at the 51st Venice Biennale, will present her new performance for

the first time in Europe. Often rewarded Chilean artist Ivan Navarro is presenting one of his recent

light installations, Ronald Moran and Marlon de Azambuja will prepare a spatial installation, Maria

Rosa Jijon, Felipe Aguila, and Gianfranco Foschino will create new artistic projects during their

residence in Ptuj. The exhibition entitled Latin America between Identity and Mask will also feature

works by Dario Escobar, Luis Gonzalez Palma, David Perez Karmadavis, Priscila Monge, Ishmael

Randall Weeks, and Enrique Zamudio.

ARTISTS:

Felipe Aguila (Chile), Marlon de Azambuja (Brazil), Dario Escobar (Guatemala), Gianfranco Foschino

Enrique Zamudio (Chile)

INTERVIEW WITH THE CURATOR ANTONIO AREVALO:

The idea and purpose of the project is highlighted in an interview with the curator, which was

conducted last fall.

Marika Vicari: Art Stays is multidisciplinary and international, we might say a bit like your story.

The first question is, therefore, almost obligatory. Your cultural stimulus is amplified by the fact

that you were born in Santiago, Chile but you live and work in Rome, Italy. Tell me, which

atmosphere do you breathe in these large cities, where biennials and international exhibitions of

art are daily events?

Antonio Arevalo: I have always lived in big cities, mostly capital cities, since I was a child, and it is

here that contradictions emerge today giving me a reason to plan my own personal program. I come

[8]

from a country that has experienced social democracy, a fascist coup, freedom from that nightmare

through the ballot box, and neoliberal capitalist democracy.

I now live in Rome, where the classical hardly leaves any room for new ideas; but perhaps this

experience, the sense of belonging, the places where one lives, are those that shape the life

experiences that each one of us carries with him wherever he goes, wherever he is, on his journey

from one place to another.

It makes you look at reality in a different way and makes you able to show all this. I must add

something that has always made me admire the father of curators Harald Szeemann, the poetry that

predisposes you to be free and to come forward.

M. V.: Art Stays has been a „window display“ dedicated to contemporary art for years, presenting

the festival, the artists' residency, partnerships with artists, curators, major projects and most

recently the summer academy. It has been defined as a unique and prominent art project for the

Capital of culture 2012. In regard to this, what do you think - what is the potential significance of

Art Stays, especially in comparison with other similar events scattered throughout Europe?

A. A.: To become Capital of Culture 2012 is a great opportunity not only for the artists who

participate but also for young people and for those who will enjoy its fruits. It's an award for the city

and its population. Facing an ambitious challenge, the important issue is to make a collective effort,

and true success is to know how to work side by side: a true team effort that demonstrates that

when there is unity and a strong project, as in this case, we arrive at the finish line victorious. I

immediately compare it to Manifesta, a young and nomadic biennial, able to provoke the most

contemporary energies.

M. V.: In the last months as well as in previous events, you have been working on different projects

with young and established artists from different countries. You've also been invited to the Venice

Biennale as a curator several times. Taking this into account, what is your position regarding the

invitation to present Latin American art for the first time in Ptuj?

A. A.: In Latin America an artistic movement has emerged in recent years that has brought great

creative innovation in contemporary art: besides the recognition received by the expert critics, it

represents an opportunity to get closer to the new realities of a region that has experienced

profound social, political and cultural changes.

The language of these artists has a very important role regarding the world of image and raises

important issues around the concepts of identity, race, class, religion, gender and sexuality.

Experimentation and research of new languages, the reviewing of recent and ancestral memories are

producing the best key to understanding that reality. Here, I'm interested in bringing out this

pluralism, the extreme vitality of this visual research which is part of a wider project, let's say a

structured strategy: the base is the belief that the language of Latin American countries pays

attention to and is aware of its important role in the world of images.

M. V.: Looking at your project, you seem interested in the dialogue between different artistic fields

and the migration of forms. Which project will you present at the 10th Art Stays? What are the

differences and continuity with other projects that you nurture or have attended? Why do you

think it's important to involve the city in the festival events? What is the role of the curator in the

artist's creative process? What are your future projects?

[9]

A. A.: In today's multi-ethnic perspective, where every movement produces a mix, each artist can

make use of his own genetic makeup, change and invent his own homeland, affect the meaning and

the imagination, seek to review and combine different iconographies and national identities. This is

the project in which I have been involved lately and which I want to pursue. Born as „Motion of a

Nation“, I have called artists from different backgrounds and nationalities to depict the story of the

world, its meaning, and why not, the evils and distortions, with different techniques and materials,

from photography to drawing, from painting to image synthesis and video, intertwining high

knowledge and pop language, history and news, cartoons and poetry, in a dense network of

references and quotations which impels one, with surprising and often ironic gamble, not to concede

anything to the boundary between sentimental biography and sociological analysis, literary memory

and technological experimentation.

NORTH AMERICA You will be surprised by the diversity of artists representing contemporary North American art. The

exhibition will feature works by American artist Yoko Ono, one of the most important representatives

of the Fluxus movement, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year; socially conscious

projects by Mexican artist Raymundo Sesma and Canadian artists Janet Belotto, Karen Oresmus

(installations and video), and Ben Darrah (paintings); intriguing photographs by American

photographer Dean Dempsey, and sculptures by American-Swedish sculptor Jill Höjeborg. We will

also be hosting an audiovisual performance that is being prepared by American artist Nadia Buyse in

collaboration with German performer Noisy Pig.

ARTISTS:

Janet Belotto (Canada), Nadia Buyse (USA), Ben Darrah (Canada), Dean Dempsey (USA), Jill Höjeberg

(USA-Sweden), Karen Oremus (Canada), Yoko Ono (USA), Raymundo Sesma (Mexico)

ANTARCTICA Art Stays' ambitious plan to present art from all of Earth's continents has come to life with the

presentation of Antarctica, a continent that is extraordinary in all respects. Chilean-born artist

Fernando Prats has carried out many of his artistic interventions in Antarctica, the most famous

among them being Gran Sur, which was also presented in the Chilean pavilion at last year's Venice

Biennale. At the Art Stays festival, Prats will present his work entitled El nacimiento del mundo II

(1925–2011), which is a homage to Joan Miró and his painting. It consists of an action that Prats did

in the Antarctic, based on Joan Miró's Dibujo preparatorio de pintura (El nacimiento del mundo),

1925 (pencil graphite on paper, 26.4 x 20 cm). It's all about an action of conquest in the polar

emptiness, that consists of moving the lines that form Joan Miró's Dibujo preparatorio de pintura (El

nacimiento del mundo), 1925 to the most extreme territory of the planet.

ARTIST:

Fernando Prats (Chile)

AUSTRALIA We have entrusted a single artist with representing the Australian continent. The diversity of Donna

Franklin's work is amazing, as it moves from video and photography to performance and installation.

The festival will feature a composition made up of various artistic approaches, all stemming from

biology, as the artist's works are created with the help of living nature.

ARTIST:

Donna Franklin (Australia)

50° FLUXUS - YOKO ONO To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Fluxus, Art Stays is honoured to announce its collaboration

with Archivio Bonotto, a contemporary institution dedicated to archiving Fluxus Art. We present

Skyladders, an artwork by Yoko Ono, originally dedicated to John Lennon in 1968. Created to be

performed in three different versions in a party-like atmosphere with ladies with parasols and

binoculars and gentlemen with top hats and monocles, the work and its performance today are

presented in accordance with the conceptual instructions and with the presence of various ladders

that create a forest and pierce the sky. Yoko Ono frequently invites people to participate in an act

involving imagination, whether in her instructional pieces or in her conceptual works of art.

LIGHT ART We are continuing our cooperation with the Austrian biennial of light art (Light Art Biennial) this year.

We will be hosting artists such as Manfred Kielnhofer, Christoph Luckeneder, and Mounty R. P.

Zentara from Austria, who will be joined by Chinese artist Zoie So with her performance entitled LSD

||| LIQUID SOAP DISPLAY.

ARTISTS:

Manfred Kielnhofer (Avstrija / Austria), Christoph Luckeneder (Avstrija / Austria), Zoie So (Kitajska /

China), Mounty R.P. Zentara (Avstrija / Austria)

THE AREA OF BUSTLE - LIVE MEDIA FROM VENICE The artists that have been invited to Ptuj represent an extensive combination of various approaches

to live media performances. Claudio Roccheti (sound) and Manuel Frara/interno3 (video) are

developing a “set” that covers areas between the two extremes of the sonic and visual world. The

environment is taken over by the continuous, constant hum and noise that Roccheti creates. Frara

manipulates the sound with condenser microphones and translates it in real time into essential

images of landscapes, made up of pixels and geometric lines.

Riccardo Piovesan (sound) and Alessandro Sgarbi (video) are moving on parallel coordinates that

intersect when Piovesan's cold, surgical beat triggers a reinforcement of the visual spectrum in the

light visions of Alessandro Sgarbi. The overall result is extremely attractive and hypnotic movement,

in which the frequency of light is interrupted by moments of complete darkness.

Andrea Cazzagon combines theoretical reflection on the nature of new spaces for art with the ability

of improvisation, creating an eclectic and diverse production. His works and research therefore meet

[11]

the ephemeral realm and feed on an elegant attitude towards punk, which gives the artist the

opportunity to toy with the context of his performance, taking advantage of that immaterial instance

of a work of art that has influenced art movements in the 20th century, starting with the Fluxus

movement. (Tommaso Zannini)

ARTISTS:

Claudio Rocchetti (sound), Manuel Frara/interno3 (video), Riccardo Piovesan (sound), Alessandro

SUMMER ACADEMY The fourth consecutive Summer Academy of Contemporary Art will reveal a number of views on

contemporary art. Daily talks with artists, curators, and professors from international institutions and

universities will acquaint you with the sometimes complicated world of contemporary art. The talks

will be conducted in a relaxed atmosphere on the main stage in Slovenski trg Square. On the

weekends, the talks will be supplemented by workshops where you will be able to create with artists

such as Jakob Tolstrup from Denmark and Cyryl Zakrzewski from Poland, and with Laszlo Laszlo

Revesz, professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Budapest. We have also prepared a variety of

creative workshops for children in collaboration with the Centre for Free Time Activities Ptuj.

THE RADIANT CITY

"The Radiant City – A Public Art Project" workshop by Maria Campitelli and MassimoPremuda,

Gruppo78 – International Contemporary Art, Trieste. The workshop consists of mapping: surveying

public or private sites that can be defined as“neglected places”. The idea of the project is to plan art

interventions and, finally, implement some planned interventions. The presentation of the workshop

and mapping will start at the beginning of the festival and end at the end of August, when the results

will be discussed and plans made for interventions during the 2013 Art Stays festival.

GRAFITTI STREET ATTACK Graffiti will emerge in the streets of Ptuj during the festival. When, where, how, and who will be

creating them will remain a mystery for the time being. We invite you to take a stroll through the city

in search of graffiti.
