MED – Maribor Electronic Destination 2011

Date: 25/02/2011 until 26/02/2011

Location: Gallery KiBela, Maribor – Slovenia

Organisers / Producers:  ACE KIBLA


This year’s edition of MED festival is again being established as a platform to enable crossing the divisions between the acoustic and electronic music expression on the one hand, and the exploring and playful aspect of making music on the other. As the form of a festival is considered one of the best options to make new cultural contents directly available and raise interest in them, it is also very contributing to the situation in the local environment. This is because we have been working towards merging alternative approaches to music, and at the same time trying to increase the visibility of establishing a comprehensive scene of such creativity on a local basis.

Programs:

25. 2. Friday
23:00 … TOLOUSE LOW TRAX
00:00 … GREIE GUT FRAKTION

Junoš Miklavc and the collective By the Golden Thigh: Meditation

Date: 18/02/2011 until 02/03/2011

Location: Gallery KiBela, Maribor – Slovenia

Organisers / Producers:  ACE KIBLA


The paintings by Junoš Miklavc are marked by tangible layering, attention, meaning and origin of the material in painting taking him to spiritual worlds. The body has the role of conducting energies. The perception of the outside world travels through the body like a sensation, being translated into the drawing and colours and its subtle shades. Miklavc is a refined explorer into relations and shades of colour. The figure is positioned into the spiritual space of colour with precise feeling of a thousand-fold experience – yet never really repeated.

By the Golden Thigh collective argue the point that everything we do focused is meditation. With their project By the Golden Thigh, the art trio Katja Skušek, Nataša Skušek and Mladen Stropnik explore in a gourmet manner the dimensions of nourishment, particularly the obsessions to do with food. This topic is the main theme of their joint activity. The independent curator Maja Škerbot who also wrote the text displayed at the place setting within the project By the Golden Thigh, has contemplated the obsessions of individuals in the contemporary society and their activity, noting: “So far, their space has not been pervaded by Klein’s fragrances, yet the eroticism of the obsessive has been flourishing in authors’ statements, providing the visitor with yet another ingenuity on the freely obsessive that only acts so legitimately and without mincing matters in the field of art.” Otherwise independently creative artists have for a number of years been attracting attention, particularly in joint projects, with pieces having the common denominator in food and their completely subjective attitudes towards it.

VELI AND AMOS LIVE IN GALLERIES / VELI IN AMOS V ŽIVO V GALERIJAH is the Slovenian premiere of the solo gallery installation of the Slovenian artist Veli Silver and the Swiss artist Amos Angeles.
External, urban and street interventions moved into the context of a gallery space, the simple and more complex interactivity, innovative painting and mural drawings, audio scenery and documentary photography, intellectual conceptualisation with hooligan spontaneity, the easiness, simplicity and directness of contemporary art or the complexity and critical discourse are the courses of development and work that ran parallel to making the exhibition.
