Zlatko Paković: Ministrants (Serbia)

The play Ministrants, directed by Zlatko Paković and inspired by the drama The Maids by Jean Genet, powerfully and uncompromisingly opens the theme of confronting trauma and the power of the Church. The performance offers a stage exploration of the relationships between power, faith, and violence, pointing out how institutions that are meant to protect the community often become sources of pain and repression.

Darko Lukić: Umjetnost u neprijateljskom okruženju – između hegemonije, performativnosti i mikropolitike otpora

Predavanje razmatra položaj umjetničkih i društveno angažiranih praksi u suvremenim političkim i kulturnim kontekstima obilježenima rastućim ideološkim pritiscima i procesima demokratske erozije. Poseban se naglasak stavlja na nezavisnu scenu, koja kroz participativne i politički angažirane umjetničke prakse otvara prostor konflikta kao konstitutivnog elementa demokracije.
