Ivan Jurica On Directing Air #1 2018: Ivan Jurica: Central (Eastern) Europe In The Context Of Colonial Mentality

What means the context of Central (Eastern) Europe colonial mentality? And why do we, regarding post-socialist societies, speak about colonialism at all? While after 1989 its image dominated turbo-capitalism and consequent modernist racism, in the recent years it became shifted into racialized anti-Islamism and sadistic xenophobia. The urgent need to conceive this publication departs not only from the necessity to display those histories in the context of permanent transformation and socialist and post-socialist experiences, but additionally from an attempt to destabilize simple black and white perceptions of the politics and societies on both sides of the former wall. In these terms, we consider this publication as reaching the Western as well as Eastern readers. The publication is a collection of texts and works of the author regarding the Central (Eastern) European post-socialist situation, produced for different occasions within the context of art and culture, and published, presented or performed. It should be considered as a work of art, overlapping comments, and fields of art, culture, economy, and politics.

Květa Fulierová: Dolce Vita?

Květa Fulierová: "The time between the year 1974 – when our first collaborative exhibitions J.K. and K.F. in the State Textile Research Institute in Bratislava took place, and the year 2006, when we exhibited together for the last time at the French Institute in Bratislava, was filled with artistic activities at our flat on Kudláková Street 5 as well as contributions to group exhibitions and completing our individual works, but also as a couple J+K. From the rich archive of photographs, articles and other documents I chose a few chapters to illustrate a shared life of two artists."

This publication arises from the fourth collaboration with Květa Fulierová and it is entirely in her dramaturgy – comprising of Květa's selection and systematization of materials from the archives relating to art works and collaborations with Julo Koller during their life together in their small home on Kudláková 5. Holidays, amateur classes, or taking care of Květa’s grandchildren are all artistic activities for J + K. Life is art. Or at least a situation. Koller poses by a statue of Božena Němcová in the courtyard in front of the exhibition hall, while Květa installs her lithographs. Květa hangings her monotypings like underwear on the balcony, while he paraphrases Filko’s White Space, or painting as such, within the frame of his housework when he paints the joints between the tiles in the bathroom white. In this book there are also other more traditional exhibitions and art events, which can be understood as a documentation of the exhibition practices, processes or inventions of that time. It spans almost twenty years, and thanks to its authentic aesthetic, information in the photographs, invitations and newspaper clippings, it forces us remember their context, which is essential to understanding the genuine value of the work of Květa Fulierová and Július Koller.
