UMETNOST JE NADJAČALA SPORT
kom koju je Minja pre nekoliko godina iz- mislila. Prvo fotografiše umetnika, potom na prozirni pleksiglas nanese prirodni pi- gment u slojevima. Zatim gotove slike od- nese u mesta za koja je određeni umetnik emotivno vezan, pa ih fotografiše tako da se kroz portret u pozadini vidi grad. – Pošla sam od portreta najznačajni- jih ličnosti, aktivnih u ovom momentu, i to u različitim oblastima. Fotografisala sam ih, pričali smo o životu, o njihovim najomiljenijim gradovima u Italiji… Svaka ličnost je predstavljena sa dva rada: jedan je portret naslikan bojama, a odmah po- red, u istim dimenzijama, fotografija tog portreta s gradom u pozadini. Otuda i na- ziv Duša i telo Italije . using a technique that Minja invented a few years ago. First she shot a photo- graph of the artist, then on transparent Plexiglas she applied natural pigments in layers. Then she took the finished ima- ge to a place to which the specific artist is emotionally attached, then she took a photograph so that the city can be seen in the background of the portrait. - I started from portraits of the most significant personalities who are active in this moment, in different areas. I pho- tographed them and we spoke about life, about their favourite cities in Italy etc. Every personality is presented at the ex- hibitions with two works: one is a portra- it painted with colours, and immediately beside that, in the same dimensions, is a photograph of the same portrait with a city in the background. Hence the name “The Soul and the Body of Italy” .
neki način biti deo italijanske reprezenta- cije 2024. Predstavljeno je 37 portreta po- znatih ličnosti, poput kompozitora Enija Morikonea, tenora Andree Bočelija, slikara Mikelanđela Pistoleta, pisca Umberta Eka, reditelja Matea Garonea… Inače, ova izlož- ba samo je deo Minjine serije GAPscape - State of Art Italia. – Izložbom smo podržali kandidaturu Rima kao grada domaćina za Olimpijske igre. Ta saradnja biće nastavljena i nared- nih godina na mojim izložbama kada u fi- nišu kandidature bude dozvoljena pro- mocija i u inostranstvu – kaže Minja i napominje da je kustos izložbe bio Akile Bonito Oliva, poznati likovni kritičar. Portreti su rađeni na pleksiglasu tehni- journalists and politicians. They were cu- rious because the exhibition will in some way be part of the Italian national team re- presentation in 2024. It presents 37 por- traits of famous personalities, such as composer Enio Morricone, tenor Andrea Bocelli, artist Michelangelo Pistoletto, wri- ter Umberto Eco, director Mateo Garone et al. Otherwise, this exhibition is only a part minjin series GAPscape - State of Art Italia. - We used the exhibition to support the candidacy of Rome as the host city of the Olympic Games. That cooperation will also be continued in the coming ye- ars at my exhibitions, when the culminati- on of the candidacy will also allow promo- tions abroad – says Minja, who also notes that the curator of the exhibition was Ac- hille Bonito Oliva, a famous fine art critic. The portraits were made on Plexiglas
