I'm a contemporary artist
0
0
2000
Ja sam suvremeni umjetnik
00:17
with a bit of an unexpected background.
1
2000
2000
iz pomalo neuobičajene sredine.
00:19
I was in my 20s before I ever went to an art museum.
2
4000
3000
Već sam bio u 20-ima kad sam prvi put kročio u muzej.
00:22
I grew up in the middle of nowhere
3
7000
2000
Odrastao sam usred ničega,
00:24
on a dirt road in rural Arkansas,
4
9000
2000
na prašnjavoj cesti u ruralnom Arkansasu,
00:26
an hour from the nearest movie theater.
5
11000
2000
sat vremena udaljen od najbližeg kina.
00:28
And I think it was a great place to grow up as an artist
6
13000
3000
Mislim da je za umjetnika to sjajno mjesto za odrastanje,
00:31
because I grew up around quirky, colorful characters
7
16000
3000
jer oko mene su živjeli osebujni, slikoviti likovi
00:34
who were great at making with their hands.
8
19000
3000
koji su bili sjajni u izrađivanju stvari rukama.
00:37
And my childhood is more hick
9
22000
2000
Moje je djetinjstvo više seljačko
00:39
than I could ever possibly relate to you,
10
24000
2000
nego što bih vam ikad mogao prenijeti,
00:41
and also more intellectual than you would ever expect.
11
26000
3000
ali i mnogo intelektualnije nego što biste očekivali.
00:44
For instance, me and my sister, when we were little,
12
29000
2000
Na primjer, kad smo sestra i ja bili maleni,
00:46
we would compete to see who could eat the most squirrel brains.
13
31000
3000
natjecali smo se u jedenju vjeveričjih mozgova.
00:49
(Laughter)
14
34000
2000
(Smijeh)
00:51
But on the other side of that, though,
15
36000
2000
Ali s druge strane,
00:53
we were big readers in our house.
16
38000
2000
svi su doma obožavali čitati.
00:55
And if the TV was on, we were watching a documentary.
17
40000
3000
Ako je televizor bio upaljen, gledali smo dokumentarce.
00:59
And my dad is the most voracious reader I know.
18
44000
3000
Moj je tata najgorljiviji čitatelj kojeg poznajem.
01:02
He can read a novel or two a day.
19
47000
2000
Dnevno pročita roman ili dva.
01:04
But when I was little, I remember,
20
49000
2000
Ali kad sam bio malen, sjećam se,
01:06
he would kill flies in our house with my BB gun.
21
51000
3000
ubijao bi muhe u kući mojom zračnom puškom.
01:09
And what was so amazing to me about that --
22
54000
2000
Ono što mi je bilo nevjerojatno kod toga --
01:11
well he would be in his recliner, would holler for me to fetch the BB gun,
23
56000
3000
izvalio bi se u naslonjaču, doviknuo mi da donesem zračnicu,
01:14
and I'd go get it.
24
59000
2000
i ja bih otišao po nju.
01:16
And what was amazing to me --
25
61000
2000
Bilo mi je nevjerojatno to što --
01:18
well it was pretty kickass; he was killing a fly in the house with a gun --
26
63000
3000
pa, bilo je zakon. Puškom je ubijao muhe u kući,
01:21
but what was so amazing to me
27
66000
2000
ali genijalno mi je bilo
01:23
was that he knew just enough how to pump it.
28
68000
2000
to što je točno znao koliko je treba napumpati.
01:25
And he could shoot it from two rooms away
29
70000
3000
Pucao bi udaljen dvije sobe
01:28
and not damage what it was on
30
73000
3000
i ne bi oštetio ono na čemu se nalazila,
01:31
because he knew how to pump it just enough to kill the fly
31
76000
2000
jer je znao naciljati da ubije muhu
01:33
and not damage what it landed on.
32
78000
3000
i ne ošteti ono na što je sletjela.
01:38
So I should talk about art.
33
83000
2000
Trebao bih govoriti o umjetnosti.
01:40
(Laughter)
34
85000
2000
(Smijeh)
01:42
Or we'll be here all day with my childhood stories.
35
87000
3000
Inače ćete cijeli dan slušati o mom djetinjstvu.
01:46
I love contemporary art,
36
91000
2000
Volim suvremenu umjetnost,
01:48
but I'm often really frustrated with the contemporary art world
37
93000
2000
ali često sam frustriran svijetom suvremene umjetnosti
01:50
and the contemporary art scene.
38
95000
2000
i suvremenom umjetničkom scenom.
01:52
A few years ago,
39
97000
2000
Prije nekoliko godina,
01:54
I spent months in Europe
40
99000
2000
proveo sam nekoliko mjeseci u Europi
01:56
to see the major international art exhibitions
41
101000
3000
kako bih posjetio najvažnije međunarodne izložbe
01:59
that have the pulse
42
104000
2000
koje utjelovljuju
02:01
of what is supposed to be going on in the art world.
43
106000
2000
ono što bi se trebalo zbivati u svijetu umjetnosti.
02:03
And I was struck
44
108000
2000
Na koncu sam,
02:05
by going to so many, one after the other,
45
110000
3000
nakon toliko izložbi,
02:08
with some clarity of what it was
46
113000
2000
dobio poprilično jasnu sliku
02:10
that I was longing for.
47
115000
2000
onoga za čime sam žudio.
02:12
And I was longing for several things that I wasn't getting,
48
117000
2000
Žudio sam za nekoliko stvari kojih nije bilo
02:14
or not getting enough of.
49
119000
2000
ili ih nije bilo dovoljno.
02:16
But two of the main things:
50
121000
2000
Ovo su dvije glavne stvari:
02:18
one of it, I was longing for more work
51
123000
2000
Prvo, žudio sam za više radova
02:20
that was appealing to a broad public,
52
125000
2000
koji se obraćaju široj publici,
02:22
that was accessible.
53
127000
2000
koji su dostupni.
02:24
And the second thing that I was longing for
54
129000
2000
Druga stvar koju sam želio
02:26
was some more exquisite craftsmanship
55
131000
2000
bila je više dojmljive izrade
02:28
and technique.
56
133000
3000
i tehnike.
02:31
So I started thinking and listing
57
136000
3000
Tako sam počeo razmišljati i popisivati
02:34
what all it was that I thought would make a perfect biennial.
58
139000
3000
što bi, po meni, trebao sadržavati savršeni bijenale.
02:37
So I decided,
59
142000
2000
Odlučio sam,
02:39
I'm going to start my own biennial.
60
144000
2000
pokrenut ću vlastiti bijenale.
02:41
I'm going to organize it and direct it
61
146000
2000
Organizirat ću ga i režirati
02:43
and get it going in the world.
62
148000
3000
i predstaviti ga svijetu.
02:46
So I thought, okay,
63
151000
2000
Pomislio sam, dobro,
02:48
I have to have some criteria of how to choose work.
64
153000
3000
moram imati neke kriterije za odabir radova.
02:51
So amongst all the criteria I have,
65
156000
2000
Među svim kriterijima koje imam,
02:53
there's two main things.
66
158000
2000
dvije su stvari ključne.
02:55
One of them, I call my Mimaw's Test.
67
160000
2000
Prva je od njih ono što zovem baba-test.
02:57
And what that is
68
162000
2000
To je zapravo
02:59
is I imagine explaining a work of art
69
164000
2000
onda kad zamislim da objašnjavam djelo
03:01
to my grandmother in five minutes,
70
166000
2000
svojoj baki u pet minuta.
03:03
and if I can't explain it in five minutes,
71
168000
2000
Ne uspijem li ga objasniti u tom roku,
03:05
then it's too obtuse
72
170000
2000
znači da je previše zakučasto
03:07
or esoteric
73
172000
2000
i nerazumljivo
03:09
and it hasn't been refined enough yet.
74
174000
2000
i još nije dovoljno pročišćeno.
03:11
It needs to worked on
75
176000
2000
Na njemu treba raditi
03:13
until it can speak fluently.
76
178000
3000
dok ne progovori tečno.
03:16
And then my other second set of rules --
77
181000
2000
Moj drugi skup pravila --
03:18
I hate to say "rules" because it's art --
78
183000
2000
mrzim riječ ''pravila'' kad je riječ o umjetnosti.
03:20
my criteria would be
79
185000
2000
Moji su kriteriji
03:22
the three H's,
80
187000
2000
GSR.
03:24
which is head, heart and hands.
81
189000
2000
To jest, glava, srce i ruke.
03:26
And great art would have "head":
82
191000
3000
Sjajna umjetnost treba imati glavu,
03:29
it would have interesting intellectual ideas
83
194000
2000
zanimljive intelektualne ideje
03:31
and concepts.
84
196000
2000
i koncepte.
03:33
It would have "heart" in that it would have passion
85
198000
3000
Treba imati srce, to jest strast,
03:36
and heart and soul.
86
201000
2000
srce i dušu.
03:38
And it would have "hand" in that it would be greatly crafted.
87
203000
3000
Treba imati ruke, to jest sjajnu izradu.
03:41
So I started thinking about
88
206000
2000
Počeo sam razmišljati o tome
03:43
how am I going to do this biennial,
89
208000
2000
kako ću organizirati ovaj bijenale
03:45
how am I going to travel the world
90
210000
2000
i putovati svijetom
03:47
and find these artists?
91
212000
2000
u potrazi za tim umjetnicima.
03:49
And then I realized one day, there's an easier solution to this.
92
214000
3000
Potom sam shvatio da postoji jednostavnije rješenje.
03:52
I'm just going to make the whole thing myself.
93
217000
2000
Sve ću sam napraviti.
03:54
(Laughter)
94
219000
2000
(Smijeh)
03:56
And so this is what I did.
95
221000
3000
To sam i učinio.
03:59
So I thought, a biennial needs artists.
96
224000
2000
Pomislio sam, bijenale treba umjetnike.
04:01
I'm going to do an international biennial; I need artists from all around the world.
97
226000
3000
Budući da je to međunarodni bijenale, trebaju mi umjetnici iz cijelog svijeta.
04:04
So what I did was
98
229000
2000
U skladu s time,
04:06
I invented a hundred artists from around the world.
99
231000
3000
izmislio sam stotinu umjetnika iz cijelog svijeta.
04:09
I figured out their bios, their passions in life
100
234000
3000
Razvio sam im životopise, životne strasti
04:12
and their art styles,
101
237000
2000
i umjetničke stilove,
04:14
and I started making their work.
102
239000
3000
te počeo raditi na njihovim djelima.
04:17
(Laughter)
103
242000
2000
(Smijeh)
04:19
(Applause)
104
244000
3000
(Pljesak)
04:22
I felt, oh this is the kind of project that I could spend my whole life doing.
105
247000
3000
Osjetio sam da bi ovo mogao biti cjeloživotni projekt.
04:25
So I decided, I'm going to make this a real biennial.
106
250000
2000
Zato sam odlučio da ovo bude pravi bijenale,
04:27
It's going to be two years of studio work.
107
252000
2000
dvije godine umjetničkog rada.
04:29
And I'm going to create this in two years,
108
254000
2000
Stvorit ću to u dvije godine.
04:31
and I have.
109
256000
2000
I jesam.
04:35
So I should start to talk about these guys.
110
260000
3000
Trebao bih početi govoriti o tim ljudima.
04:38
Well the range is quite a bit.
111
263000
2000
Poprilično su raznoliki.
04:40
And I'm such a technician, so I loved this project,
112
265000
2000
Kao ljubitelju tehnike, svidio mi se projekt,
04:42
getting to play with all the techniques.
113
267000
3000
prilika da se igram sa svim tehnikama.
04:45
So for example, in realist paintings,
114
270000
2000
Na primjer, realističke slike
04:47
it ranges from this,
115
272000
2000
kreću se od ovoga,
04:49
which is kind of old masters style,
116
274000
2000
otprilike stila starih majstora,
04:51
to really realistic still-life,
117
276000
3000
preko zaista realističke mrtve prirode,
04:54
to this type of painting where I'm painting with a single hair.
118
279000
3000
do ovakve slike koju slikam kistom od jedne dlake.
04:57
And then at the other end, there's performance and short films
119
282000
3000
S druge strane, postoje performansi i kratki filmovi,
05:00
and indoor installations
120
285000
2000
unutarnje instalacije
05:02
like this indoor installation
121
287000
2000
poput ove
05:04
and this one,
122
289000
3000
i ove.
05:07
and outdoor installations like this one
123
292000
4000
Vanjske instalacije poput ove
05:11
and this one.
124
296000
2000
i ove.
05:13
I know I should mention: I'm making all these things.
125
298000
2000
Trebao bih napomenuti da sve sam stvaram.
05:15
This isn't Photoshopped.
126
300000
2000
Ovo nije fotošopirano.
05:17
I'm under the river with those fish.
127
302000
2000
Na dnu sam rijeke s ovim ribama.
05:19
So now let me introduce some of my fictional artists to you.
128
304000
3000
Sad ću vam predstaviti neke od svojih fiktivnih umjetnika.
05:22
This is Nell Remmel.
129
307000
2000
Ovo je Nell Remmel.
05:24
Nell is interested in agricultural processes,
130
309000
2000
Nell zanimaju procesi u agrikulturi,
05:26
and her work is based in these practices.
131
311000
3000
i njezin je rad baziran na tim praksama.
05:29
This piece, which is called "Flipped Earth" --
132
314000
2000
Ovo se djelo zove ''Preokrenuta Zemlja''.
05:31
she was interested in taking the sky
133
316000
3000
Namjera joj je bila uzeti nebo
05:34
and using it to cleanse barren ground.
134
319000
3000
i poslužiti se njime da obnovi jalovo tlo.
05:37
And by taking giant mirrors --
135
322000
3000
Uz pomoć divovskih zrcala --
05:40
(Applause)
136
325000
2000
(Pljesak)
05:42
and here she's taking giant mirrors
137
327000
2000
Ovdje uzima divovska zrcala
05:44
and pulling them into the dirt.
138
329000
3000
i postavlja ih u zemlju.
05:47
And this is 22 feet long.
139
332000
2000
Ovo je dugačko 6,7 metara.
05:49
And what I loved about her work
140
334000
2000
Kod njezinog mi se rada svidjelo,
05:51
is, when I would walk around it
141
336000
2000
kad bih hodao oko njega,
05:53
and look down into the sky,
142
338000
2000
i gledao dolje u nebo,
05:55
looking down to watch the sky,
143
340000
2000
gledao u tlo da vidim nebo,
05:57
and it unfolded in a new way.
144
342000
2000
ono bi mi se otkrilo na nov način.
05:59
And probably the best part of this piece
145
344000
2000
Vjerojatno najbolji dio ovog komada
06:01
is at dusk and dawn
146
346000
2000
vidljiv je u sumrak i zoru,
06:03
when the twilight wedge has fallen and the ground's dark,
147
348000
3000
kad je Sunce gotovo zašlo i tlo je mračno,
06:06
but there's still the light above, bright above.
148
351000
2000
ali odozgo još dolazi svjetlost.
06:08
And so you're standing there and everything else is dark,
149
353000
2000
Stojite ondje i sve je u tami,
06:10
but there's this portal that you want to jump in.
150
355000
2000
ali postoji portal u koji želite uskočiti.
06:12
This piece was great. This is in my parents' backyard in Arkansas.
151
357000
3000
Ovo je sjajno djelo. U Arkansasu je, u dvorištu mojih roditelja.
06:15
And I love to dig a hole.
152
360000
2000
A ja volim kopati rupe.
06:17
So this piece was great fun
153
362000
2000
Zato je ovo djelo bilo zabavno,
06:19
because it was two days of digging in soft dirt.
154
364000
3000
sastojalo se od dva dana laganog kopanja.
06:23
The next artist is Kay Overstry,
155
368000
2000
Iduća je umjetnica Kay Overstry,
06:25
and she's interested in ephemerality and transience.
156
370000
3000
čiji su interesi kratkotrajnost i prolaznost.
06:28
And in her most recent project,
157
373000
2000
Ovo je njezin najnoviji projekt,
06:30
it's called "Weather I Made."
158
375000
2000
nazvan ''Vrijeme koje sam stvorila''.
06:32
And she's making weather
159
377000
2000
Ona stvara vrijeme
06:34
on her body's scale.
160
379000
2000
u opsegu vlastita tijela.
06:36
And this piece is "Frost."
161
381000
2000
Ovo je djelo ''Mraz''.
06:38
And what she did was she went out on a cold, dry night
162
383000
3000
Jedne je hladne i suhe noći izašla
06:41
and breathed back and forth on the lawn
163
386000
3000
i disala po travnjaku
06:44
to leave --
164
389000
2000
kako bi ostavila
06:46
to leave her life's mark,
165
391000
2000
svoj životni trag,
06:48
the mark of her life.
166
393000
2000
trag svojega daha.
06:50
(Applause)
167
395000
5000
(Pljesak)
06:55
And so this is five-foot, five-inches of frost
168
400000
2000
Ovo je 1,6 metara mraza
06:57
that she left behind.
169
402000
2000
koji je ostavila iza sebe.
06:59
The sun rises, and it melts away.
170
404000
3000
Pošto je Sunce izašlo, mraz se otopio.
07:02
And that was played by my mom.
171
407000
3000
To je glumila moja mama.
07:05
So the next artist, this is a group of Japanese artists,
172
410000
2000
Iduća je grupa japanskih umjetnika,
07:07
a collective of Japanese artists --
173
412000
2000
skupina umjetnika iz Japana --
07:09
(Laughter)
174
414000
2000
(Smijeh)
07:11
in Tokyo.
175
416000
2000
iz Tokija.
07:13
And they were interested in developing a new, alternative art space,
176
418000
3000
Zanimalo ih je stvaranje alternativnog umjetničkog prostora.
07:16
and they needed funding for it,
177
421000
2000
Za to su im trebala sredstva,
07:18
so they decided to come up with some interesting fundraising projects.
178
423000
3000
pa su odlučili razviti zanimljive projekte za prikupljanje sredstava.
07:21
One of these is scratch-off masterpieces.
179
426000
3000
Jedan od njih su remek-djela na struganje.
07:24
(Laughter)
180
429000
2000
(Smijeh)
07:26
And so what they're doing --
181
431000
2000
Ono što su napravili --
07:28
each of these artists on a nine-by-seven-inch card,
182
433000
2000
svaki je umjetnik na kartici veličine 22x17 cm,
07:30
which they sell for 10 bucks,
183
435000
2000
koju su prodavali za 10 dolara,
07:32
they drew original works of art.
184
437000
2000
nacrtao originalno umjetničko djelo.
07:34
And you buy one, and maybe you get a real piece, and maybe not.
185
439000
3000
Kupiš karticu i možda dobiješ remek-djelo, a možda i ne.
07:37
Well this has sparked a craze in Japan,
186
442000
3000
To je izazvalo ludnicu u Japanu,
07:40
because everyone's wanting a masterpiece.
187
445000
2000
jer svi su htjeli remek-djelo.
07:42
And the ones that are the most sought after
188
447000
2000
Kartice koje su bile najtraženije
07:44
are the ones that are only barely scratched off.
189
449000
2000
one su koje su najmanje ostrugane.
07:46
And all these works, in some way,
190
451000
3000
Sva ta djela, na ovaj ili onaj način,
07:49
talk about luck or fate or chance.
191
454000
3000
govore o sreći, sudbini ili slučajnosti.
07:52
Those first two
192
457000
2000
Ove prve dvije
07:54
are portraits of mega-jackpot winners years before and after their win.
193
459000
2000
portreti su dobitnika na lutriji godinama prije i nakon dobitka.
07:56
And in this one it's called "Drawing the Short Stick."
194
461000
3000
Ovaj se zove ''Izvući kraću slamku''.
07:59
(Laughter)
195
464000
2000
(Smijeh)
08:01
I love this piece because I have a little cousin at home
196
466000
2000
Volim ovo djelo jer imam malu rođakinju doma
08:03
who introduced me -- which I think is such a great introduction --
197
468000
3000
koja me predstavila, i to na sjajan način,
08:06
to a friend one day as, "This is my cousin Shea.
198
471000
3000
jednom prijatelju. ''Ovo je moj rođak Shea.
08:09
He draws sticks real good."
199
474000
2000
Crta štapove zbilja dobro.''
08:11
(Laughter)
200
476000
2000
(Smijeh)
08:13
Which is one of the best compliments ever.
201
478000
3000
To je jedan od najboljih komplimenata.
08:16
This artist is Gus Weinmueller,
202
481000
2000
Ovaj je umjetnik Gus Weinmueller,
08:18
and he's doing a project, a large project, called "Art for the Peoples."
203
483000
3000
koji radi na velikom projektu pod nazivom ''Umjetnost za ljude''.
08:21
And within this project, he's doing a smaller project
204
486000
3000
U sklopu tog projekta radi na manjem projektu
08:24
called "Artists in Residence."
205
489000
2000
nazvanom ''Umjetnici u boravku''.
08:26
And what he does is --
206
491000
2000
Ono što radi --
08:28
(Laughter)
207
493000
2000
(Smijeh)
08:30
he spends a week at a time with a family.
208
495000
2000
on provede tjedan dana s nekom obitelji.
08:32
And he shows up on their porch, their doorstep,
209
497000
4000
Pojavi im se na trijemu ili pragu
08:36
with a toothbrush and pajamas,
210
501000
2000
s četkicom za zube i pidžamom
08:38
and he's ready to spend the week with them.
211
503000
3000
i spreman je provesti tjedan s njima.
08:41
And using only what's present,
212
506000
2000
Služeći se samo onime što se ondje nalazi,
08:43
he goes in and makes a little abode studio to work out of.
213
508000
3000
uđe i stvori mali privremeni atelje u kojem radi.
08:46
And he spends that week talking to the family
214
511000
2000
Provede tjedan razgovarajući s obitelji
08:48
about what do they think great art is.
215
513000
2000
o tome što je po njima sjajna umjetnost.
08:50
He has all these discussions with their family,
216
515000
2000
S obitelji raspravlja o tome.
08:52
and he digs through everything they have,
217
517000
2000
Kopa po svemu što oni imaju
08:54
and he finds materials to make work.
218
519000
2000
i pronalazi materijale za rad.
08:56
And he makes a work
219
521000
2000
Stvori djelo
08:58
that answers what they think great art is.
220
523000
2000
koje odgovara njihovom pojmu sjajne umjetnosti.
09:00
For this family, he made this still-life painting.
221
525000
2000
Za ovu je obitelj napravio ovu sliku mrtve prirode.
09:02
And whatever he makes
222
527000
2000
Svako njegovo djelo
09:04
somehow references nesting and space
223
529000
2000
na neki način ima veze s gniježđenjem, prostorom
09:06
and personal property.
224
531000
3000
i osobnim vlasništvom.
09:09
This next project,
225
534000
2000
Idući je projekt
09:11
this is by Jaochim Parisvega,
226
536000
2000
djelo Jaochima Parisvege.
09:13
and he's interested in --
227
538000
2000
Njega zanima --
09:15
he believes art is everywhere waiting --
228
540000
2000
vjeruje da umjetnost čeka posvuda,
09:17
that it just needs a little bit of a push to happen.
229
542000
3000
da je samo treba malo pogurnuti da se ostvari.
09:20
And he provides this push by harnessing natural forces,
230
545000
3000
On to radi služeći se silama prirode,
09:23
like in his series where he used rain to make paintings.
231
548000
4000
kao u ovoj seriji gdje je slikao uz pomoć kiše.
09:27
This project is called "Love Nests."
232
552000
2000
Ovaj se projekt zove ''Ljubavna gnijezda''.
09:29
What he did was to get wild birds to make his art for him.
233
554000
3000
Iskoristio je ptice iz divljine da rade umjesto njega.
09:32
So he put the material in places where the birds were going to collect them,
234
557000
2000
Ostavio je materijal na mjestima gdje će ga ptice skupiti
09:34
and they crafted his nests for him.
235
559000
2000
i stvoriti gnijezda umjesto njega.
09:36
And this one's called "Lovelock's Nest."
236
561000
2000
Ovo se zove ''Gnijezdo ljubavi''.
09:38
This one's called "Mixtape Love Song's Nest."
237
563000
3000
Ovo se zove ''Gnijezdo ljubavnih pjesama''.
09:41
(Laughter)
238
566000
3000
(Smijeh)
09:44
And this one's called "Lovemaking Nest."
239
569000
2000
Ovo se zove ''Gnijezdo vođenja ljubavi''.
09:46
(Laughted)
240
571000
4000
(Smijeh)
09:50
Next is Sylvia Slater.
241
575000
2000
Iduća je Sylvia Slater.
09:52
Sylvia's interested in art training.
242
577000
2000
Sylviju zanima obuka u umjetnosti.
09:54
She's a very serious Swiss artist.
243
579000
2000
Ona je vrlo ozbiljna švicarska umjetnica.
09:56
(Laughter)
244
581000
2000
(Smijeh)
09:58
And she was thinking about her friends and family
245
583000
2000
Mislila je na svoje prijatelje i obitelj
10:00
who work in chaos-ridden places and developing countries,
246
585000
3000
koji rade na kaotičnim mjestima i zemljama u razvoju
10:03
and she was thinking,
247
588000
2000
i razmišljala
10:05
what can I make that would be of value to them,
248
590000
2000
što im ona vrijedno može izraditi,
10:07
in case something bad happens
249
592000
2000
u slučaju da nešto pođe po zlu
10:09
and they have to buy their way across the border
250
594000
2000
i oni moraju platiti da prijeđu granicu
10:11
or pay off a gunman?
251
596000
2000
ili potplatiti odmetnike.
10:13
And so she came up with creating
252
598000
2000
Palo joj je na pamet da stvori
10:15
these pocket-sized artworks
253
600000
2000
ove umjetnine džepne veličine
10:17
that are portraits of the person that would carry them.
254
602000
3000
koje su portreti osobe koja ih nosi.
10:20
And you would carry this around with you,
255
605000
2000
Ovo biste nosili sa sobom,
10:22
and if everything went to hell, you could make payments
256
607000
2000
a ako bi sve otišlo kvragu, imali biste sredstva
10:24
and buy your life.
257
609000
2000
da otkupite svoj život.
10:26
So this life price
258
611000
2000
Ovo je cijena života
10:28
is for an irrigation non-profit director.
259
613000
3000
direktora neprofitnog sustava za navodnjavanje.
10:31
So hopefully what happens is you never use it,
260
616000
2000
Uz malo sreće, nikad je nećete upotrijebiti
10:33
and it's an heirloom that you pass down.
261
618000
3000
i postat će dio vašeg naslijeđa.
10:36
And she makes them so they could either be broken up into payments,
262
621000
3000
Izradila ih je tako da se mogu razbiti u komade
10:39
or they could be like these, which are leaves that can be payments.
263
624000
3000
ili mogu biti poput ovog lišća koje služi kao sredstvo plaćanja.
10:42
And so they're valuable. This is precious metals and gemstones.
264
627000
3000
Vrijedno je, izrađeno od dragocjenih metala i dragulja.
10:45
And this one had to get broken up.
265
630000
2000
Ovaj je morao biti rastavljen.
10:47
He had to break off a piece to get out of Egypt recently.
266
632000
4000
Nedavno je morao odlomiti komad da izađe iz Egipta.
10:51
This is by a duo, Michael Abernathy and Bud Holland.
267
636000
3000
Ovo je djelo dua, Michaela Abernathyja i Buda Hollanda.
10:54
And they're interested in creating culture,
268
639000
2000
Njih zanima stvaranje kulture,
10:56
just tradition.
269
641000
2000
sama tradicija.
10:58
So what they do is they move into an area
270
643000
2000
Oni se dosele na neko područje
11:00
and try to establish a new tradition in a small geographic area.
271
645000
3000
i pokušaju osnovati novu tradiciju na malom prostoru.
11:03
So this is in Eastern Tennessee,
272
648000
2000
Ovo je u istočnom Tennesseeju.
11:05
and what they decided was
273
650000
2000
Odlučili su
11:07
that we need a positive tradition
274
652000
2000
da nam je potrebna pozitivna tradicija
11:09
that goes with death.
275
654000
2000
povezana sa smrću.
11:11
So they came up with "dig jigs."
276
656000
2000
Tako su izmislili grobne plesove.
11:13
And a dig jig --
277
658000
3000
Grobni ples --
11:16
a dig jig is where,
278
661000
2000
grobni je ples kada,
11:18
for a milestone anniversary or a birthday,
279
663000
2000
za važniju obljetnicu ili rođendan,
11:20
you gather all your friends and family together
280
665000
3000
skupite sve svoje prijatelje i obitelj
11:23
and you dance on where you're going to be buried.
281
668000
2000
i plešete na mjestu gdje ćete biti pokopani.
11:25
(Laughter)
282
670000
2000
(Smijeh)
11:27
And we got a lot of attention when we did it.
283
672000
3000
Privukli smo mnogo pozornosti dok smo to radili.
11:30
I talked my family into doing this, and they didn't know what I was doing.
284
675000
2000
Nagovorio sam svoju obitelj da sudjeluje, ali nisu znali što radim.
11:32
And I was like, "Get dressed for a funeral. We're going to go do some work."
285
677000
3000
Samo sam im rekao: ''Spremite se za sprovod. Idemo na posao.''
11:35
And so we got to the grave and made this, which was hilarious --
286
680000
3000
Došli smo do groba i izveli ovo, bilo je presmiješno --
11:38
the attention that we got.
287
683000
2000
sva ta pozornost koju smo privukli.
11:40
So what happens is you dance on the grave,
288
685000
2000
Potom plešete na grobu.
11:42
and after you've done your dance,
289
687000
2000
Nakon što otplešete,
11:44
everyone toasts you and tells you how great you are.
290
689000
2000
svi vam nazdrave i kažu vam koliko ste sjajni.
11:46
And you in essence have a funeral
291
691000
2000
U biti, imate sprovod
11:48
that you get to be present for.
292
693000
2000
na kojem možete sudjelovati.
11:50
That's my mom and dad.
293
695000
2000
Ovo su moji mama i tata.
11:52
This is by Jason Birdsong.
294
697000
2000
Ovo je djelo Jasona Birdsonga.
11:54
He is interested in how we see as an animal,
295
699000
3000
Interesira ga kako gledamo poput životinja,
11:57
how we are interested in mimicry and camouflage.
296
702000
3000
kako nas zanimaju mimikrija i kamuflaža.
12:00
You know, we look down a dark alley
297
705000
2000
Znate, gledamo niz tamnu uličicu
12:02
or a jungle path,
298
707000
2000
ili stazu u džungli,
12:04
trying to make out a face or a creature.
299
709000
2000
pokušavajući razaznati lice ili lik.
12:06
We just have that natural way of seeing.
300
711000
2000
To je naš prirodan način promatranja.
12:08
And he plays with this idea.
301
713000
2000
On se igra tom idejom.
12:10
And this piece: those aren't actually leaves.
302
715000
2000
Ovo zapravo nije lišće.
12:12
They're butterfly specimens who have a natural camouflage.
303
717000
2000
Radi se o leptirima s prirodnom kamuflažom.
12:14
So he pairs these up.
304
719000
2000
On ih potom spoji.
12:16
There's another pile of leaves.
305
721000
2000
Evo još jedne hrpe lišća.
12:18
Those are actually all real butterfly specimens.
306
723000
2000
Ovo su zapravo sve leptiri.
12:20
And he pairs these up with paintings.
307
725000
3000
Njih spaja sa slikama.
12:23
Like this is a painting of a snake in a box.
308
728000
3000
Ovo je slika zmije u kutiji.
12:26
So you open the box and you think, "Whoa, there's a snake in there."
309
731000
3000
Kad otvoriš kutiju, pomisliš da je unutra zmija.
12:29
But it's actually a painting.
310
734000
2000
Ali to je zapravo slika.
12:31
So he makes these interesting conversations
311
736000
2000
Potiče zanimljive razgovore
12:33
about realism and mimicry
312
738000
2000
o realizmu i mimikriji
12:35
and our drive to be fooled by great camouflage.
313
740000
3000
i našem porivu da nas zavara sjajna kamuflaža.
12:38
(Laughter)
314
743000
2000
(Smijeh)
12:40
The next artist is Hazel Clausen.
315
745000
3000
Iduća je umjetnica Hazel Clausen.
12:43
Hazel Clausen is an anthropologist who took a sabbatical
316
748000
3000
Hazel je antropologinja na dopustu
12:46
and decided, "You know, I would learn a lot about culture
317
751000
2000
koja je shvatila da bi mnogo naučila o kulturi
12:48
if I created a culture that doesn't exist from scratch."
318
753000
3000
da od temelja stvori novu kulturu.
12:51
So that's what she did.
319
756000
2000
To je i učinila.
12:53
She created the Swiss people named the Uvulites,
320
758000
2000
Stvorila je švicarski narod po imenu Uvuliti
12:55
and they have this distinctive yodeling song
321
760000
3000
koji su poznati po svom jodlanju
12:58
that they use the uvula for.
322
763000
2000
za koje koriste uvulu.
13:00
And also they reference how the uvula --
323
765000
2000
Govore o tome kako uvula --
13:02
everything they say is fallen
324
767000
2000
sve što kažu je nečasno
13:04
because of the forbidden fruit.
325
769000
2000
zbog zabranjenog voća.
13:06
And that's the symbol of their culture.
326
771000
3000
To je simbol njihove kulture.
13:10
And this is from a documentary
327
775000
2000
Ovo je iz dokumentarca
13:12
called "Sexual Practices and Populations Control
328
777000
3000
pod nazivom ''Seksualni običaji i kontrola stanovništva
13:15
Among the Uvulites."
329
780000
2000
kod Uvulita.''
13:17
This is a typical angora embroidery for them.
330
782000
4000
Ovo je njihov tipični vez od angore.
13:21
This is one of their founders, Gert Schaeffer.
331
786000
3000
Ovo je jedna od osnivačica naroda, Gert Schaeffer.
13:24
(Laughter)
332
789000
2000
(Smijeh)
13:26
And actually this is my Aunt Irene.
333
791000
2000
To je zapravo moja teta Irene.
13:28
It was so funny having a fake person
334
793000
2000
Bilo je tako zabavno imati lažnu osobu
13:30
who was making fake things.
335
795000
2000
koja radi lažne stvari.
13:32
And I crack up at this piece,
336
797000
3000
Uvijek se smijem ovom djelu,
13:35
because when I see it I know that's French angora
337
800000
3000
jer znam da se radi o francuskoj angori,
13:38
and all antique German ribbons
338
803000
2000
antiknim njemačkim vrpcama
13:40
and wool that I got in a Nebraska mill
339
805000
2000
i vuni koju sam dobio u Nebraski
13:42
and carried around for 10 years
340
807000
2000
i nosio posvuda deset godina.
13:44
and then antique Chinese skirts.
341
809000
3000
Potom, antikne kineske suknje.
13:47
The next is a collective of artists
342
812000
2000
Iduća je skupina umjetnika
13:49
called the Silver Dobermans,
343
814000
2000
pod nazivom Srebrni dobermani.
13:51
and their motto is to spread pragmatism
344
816000
2000
Njihovo je geslo širenje pragmatizma
13:53
one person at a time.
345
818000
2000
od jedne do druge osobe.
13:55
(Laughter)
346
820000
2000
(Smijeh)
13:57
And they're really interested
347
822000
2000
Njih doista zanima
13:59
in how over-coddled we've become.
348
824000
3000
koliko smo razmaženi postali.
14:02
So this is one of their comments on how over-coddled we've become.
349
827000
4000
Ovo je njihov komentar na našu razmaženost.
14:06
And what they've done
350
831000
2000
Ono što su učinili
14:08
is they put a warning sign on every single barb on this fence.
351
833000
2000
jest postavili znak upozorenja na svaku bodlju na ovoj ogradi.
14:10
(Laughter)
352
835000
3000
(Smijeh)
14:13
(Applause)
353
838000
6000
(Pljesak)
14:19
And this is called "Horse Sense Fence."
354
844000
3000
Ovo se zove ''Ograda zdravog razuma''.
14:22
The next artist is K. M. Yoon,
355
847000
2000
Idući je umjetnik K.M. Yoon,
14:24
a really interesting South Korean artist.
356
849000
2000
vrlo zanimljiv južnokorejski umjetnik.
14:26
And he's reworking a Confucian art tradition
357
851000
2000
Prerađuje konfucijansku umjetničku tradiciju
14:28
of scholar stones.
358
853000
2000
kamenja učenjaka.
14:30
Next is Maynard Sipes.
359
855000
2000
Idući je Maynard Sipes.
14:32
And I love Maynard Sipes,
360
857000
2000
Volim Maynarda Sipesa,
14:34
but he's off in his own world,
361
859000
3000
ali on živi u svom svijetu
14:37
and, bless his heart, he's so paranoid.
362
862000
3000
i, blagoslovljen bio, jako je paranoičan.
14:42
Next is Roy Penig,
363
867000
2000
Idući je Roy Penig,
14:44
a really interesting Kentucky artist,
364
869000
2000
vrlo zanimljiv umjetnik iz Kentuckyja
14:46
and he's the nicest guy.
365
871000
3000
i jako simpatičan dečko.
14:49
He even once traded a work of art for a block of government cheese
366
874000
3000
Jednom je zamijenio umjetničko djelo za komad sira
14:52
because the person wanted it so badly.
367
877000
3000
jer ga je ta osoba toliko žarko željela.
14:56
Next is an Australian artist, Janeen Jackson,
368
881000
3000
Iduća je australska umjetnica Janeen Jackson,
14:59
and this is from a project of hers

370
886000

pod naslovom ''Što umjetničko djelo radi dok ne gledamo''.
15:04
(Laughter)
371
889000
2000
(Smijeh)
15:06

374
896000
3000
Ovo je iz njezina kratkog filma ''Posljednja osoba''.
15:14
And that's my cousin and my sister's dog, Gabby.
375
899000
3000
Ovo je moja rođakinja i sestrin pas Gabby.
15:17
The next, this is by Sam Sandy.
376

2000
On je Aboridžin, starija osoba,
15:21
and he's also an artist.
378
906000
2000
također umjetnik.

And this is from a large traveling sculpture project
379

2000
Ovo je iz projekta velike putujuće skulpture
15:25
that he's doing.
380

na kojem radi.
15:27
This is from Estelle Willoughsby.
381
912000
3000
Ovo je djelo Estelle Willoughsby.
15:30
She heals with color.
382
915000
2000
Ona liječi bojom.
15:32
And she's one of the most prolific of all these hundred artists,
383
917000
3000
Jedna je od najproduktvnijih od ovih 100 umjetnika,
15:35
even though she's going to be 90 next year.
384
920000
2000
iako će iduće godine navršiti 90.
15:37
(Laughter)
385

(Smijeh)
15:39

15:49
Next is by Vera Sokolova.
390
934000
2000
Iduća je Vera Sokolova.
15:51
And I have to say, Vera kind of scares me.
391
936000
2000
Moram priznati, Vera me nekako plaši.
15:53
You can't look her directly in the eyes
392
938000
2000
Ne možeš je gledati u oči,
15:55
because she's kind of scary.
393
940000
2000
zato što je jeziva.
15:57
And it's good that she's not real;
394
942000
2000
Dobro što nije stvarna,
15:59
she'd be mad that I said that.
395
944000
2000
bila bi bijesna što sam to rekao.
16:01
(Laughter)
396
946000
2000
(Smijeh)

And she's an optometrist in St. Petersburg,

948000
3000
Ona je optičarka iz Sankt Peterburga

16:15
And this is by Cicily Bennett,

Ovo je djelo Cicily Bennett,
16:17
and it's from a series of short films.
403
962000
2000

And after this one, there's 77 other artists.
404
964000
3000
Nakon nje, ostalo je još 77 umjetnika.
16:22

405
967000
3000
Zajedno s njih 77 koje niste vidjeli,
16:25
that's my biennial.
406

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Shea Hembrey - Artist and curatorShea Hembrey explores patterns from nature and myth. A childhood love of nature, and especially birdlife, informs his vision.
Why you should listen
Shea Hembrey's art imitates nature’s forms, in an attempt to appreciate how humans have always appropriated and learned from forms in nature. An early fascination with birds (as a teenager, he was a licensed breeder of migratory waterfowl), led to "Mirror Nests," a series of metal replicas of bird nests exhibited at Cornell’s Lab of Ornithology observatory.
Hembrey works with focused concentration on a single project, letting his research into his subject direct the media and methods of the final product. He has produced works on folk and faith healing inspired by his healer grandfather, and his view of art was profoundly changed while studying Maori art while he was a Rotary International Ambassadorial Scholar to New Zealand.
