JULIJE KNIFER: RÈGLES ET ÉMOTION / RULES AND EMOTIONS Exhibition opening: Thursday, April 28, 2022 at 8 p.m. The exhibition remains open until May 21, 2022. Curators: Ana Knifer and Janka Vukmir Institute for Contemporary Art Trg kralja Tomislava 20, Zagreb Gallery opening hours: Tuesday – Saturday: 1:00 – 7:00 pm Admission free RÈGLES ET ÉMOTION is a series of drawings named after the sentence of the cubist Georges Braque: J’aime l’émotion qui corrige la règle I like the emotion that corrects the rule. Juan Gris’s response was C’est la règle qui doit corriger l’émotion A rule is one that needs to correct an emotion. RÈGLES ET ÉMOTION is a unique work that interprets the process of Knifer’s work, from imagination to execution. It is a complex study from 1979 that develops on 20 pencil and ink drawings on paper. On very gentle pencil drawings, Knifer subsequently intervenes with technical precision with a black line, along which he records numerical markings. He used a similar procedure when developing sketches for larger projects, large paintings and murals. The drawings are dated twice, depending on the date of the intervention in each layer of the work, despite his own diary notes, in notebooks whose small selection is also on display, about how time in his work plays no role and it is irrelevant when the work was created. Drawings with graphite pencils that Knifer began to work on in the late 70’s, are becoming the most accurate example of recording the passage of time. He has been working on individual graffiti for months and years, recording execution dates. Filling with a white background, applying a graphite pencil in layers, he gets the effect of black light, which he talks about in the early 60’s as a member of the Gorgona group. The exhibition was in in 2021, in a slightly different version from this one in Zagreb presented in Graz, Austria, in MUWA – Museum für Wahrenhmnug, where Ana Knifer, as curator of the exhibition, singled out these works, believing that this segment of Knifer’s work explains many procedures of his work process, and offers a key to understanding his conception of art and time.

JULIJE KNIFER RÈGLES ET ÉMOTION / PRAVILA I OSJEĆAJI Otvorenje izložbe: četvrtak, 28. Izložba ostaje otvorena do 21. Kustosice: Ana Knifer i Janka Vukmir Institut za suvremenu umjetnost Trg kralja Tomislava 20, Zagreb Radno vrijeme galerije: utorak – subota: 13:00 – 19:00 sati Ulaz slobodan RÈGLES ET ÉMOTION je serija crteža koja je dobila naziv po rečenici kubiste Georgesa Braqua: J’aime l’émotion qui corrige la règle Sviđa mi se emocija koja ispravlja pravilo. Odgovor Juana Grisa glasio je C’est la règle qui doit corriger l’émotion Pravilo je ono koje treba ispraviti emociju. RÈGLES ET ÉMOTION jedinstven je rad koji tumači proces Kniferovog rada, od imaginacije do egzekucije. Radi se o složenoj studiji iz 1979. koja se razvija na 20 crteža olovkom na papiru. Na nježnim olovkom iscrtanim crtežima Knifer naknadno intervenira tehničkom preciznošću crnom linijom, uz koju bilježi brojčane oznake. Sličan postupak je koristio i prilikom razrađivanja skica za veće projekte, slike velikih dimenzija i murale. Crteže datira dvostruko, ovisno o datumu izvedbe intervencije u pojedinom sloju rada, usprkos vlastitim dnevničkim bilješkama, u bilježnicama čiji je mali izbor također na izložbi, o tome kako vrijeme u njegovom radu ne igra nikakvu ulogu i nebitno je kada je djelo nastalo. Grafiti, odnosno crteži grafitnim olovkama koje započinje raditi krajem 70-ih, postaju najegzakniji primjer bilježenja protoka vremena. Na pojedinim grafitima radi mjesecima i godinama, bilježeći datume izvršenja. Ispunjavajući bijelu podlogu, u slojevima nanoseći grafitnu olovku, dobiva efekt crne svjetlosti o kojoj govori još početkom 60-ih kao sudionik grupe Gorgona. Izložba je u nešto drugačijoj verziji od ove zagrebačke bila tijekom 2021. godine, predstavljena u Grazu, u MUWA – Museum für Wahrenhmnug, gdje je Ana Knifer je kao kustosica izložbe ove radove izdvojila smatrajući kako upravo ovaj segment Kniferovog rada objašnjava mnoge postupke njegovog radnog procesa i nudi ključ za razumijevanje njegovog poimanja umjetnosti i vremena.
