Confusion, Life & Art

Pometnja, život i umetnost

Directing: Staša Tomić

Synopsis

A mosaic-like story about the 47th October Salon, the largest contemporary art exhibition held in Serbia, as well as all the seemingly invisible aspects of such an apparently calm event. Envisioned by Europe's heavy weight German curator Rene Block as his last statement, the machinery of workers, beaurocrats and world famous artist are there to really make the exhibition happen. When a camera is pointed toward such an event in present day post-war transitional and timid Serbia, a humorous, witty and insightful story is told portraying artistic pursuit as an attempt to overcome the confusions of human condition. Featured Artists (in order of appearance): Endre Tot (Hungary/Germany), Yufen Qin (China), Milica Tomic (Serbia), Maria Kanervo (Finland), Jakob Dahlgren (Sweden), Abidin Adel (Iraq/Finland), Bjorn Norgaard (Denmark), Dan Perjovschi (Romania), Braco Dimitrijevic(Bosnia/France), Dragoljub Raša Todosijevic (Serbia), Carles Santos (Spain).
