Women are taking over Mochvara this November! Ivana Smiljanić, a young Serbian artist, is preparing an energetic evening in collaboration with the prettier sex – DANCE DANCE DANCE is a performance defined by the musical play-list chosen by Zagreb women who experienced some form of partnership violence. The ladies spoke their minds and created a personal musical play-list which is the integral part of the performance – all the while the artist dances insistently the performance is taped and reproduced in the gallery space titled with the information of each particular song being played, the name of the author, song and whose choice the song is. The duration of the performance is dependant on the play-list – minumum of 50 minutes and maximum of 190 minutes. DANCE DANCE DANCE is a series of performances where Ivana invites people from various social spheres to chose musical numbers for her perfromances, and with each edition faces different relations and instances forming the system of contemporary culture – from the role of the artists to the marginalization of minority groups – since the first performnance in 2007, Ivana has performed DANCE DANCE DANCE in Belgrade, Vranje, Pančevo, Bergen, Bruxelles, Pula, Ljubljana, New York, Bratislava... “The invitation to DANCE DANCE DANCE at Mochvara Gallery was a chance to refer to my last year's Zagreb exhibition (“This is the real Ivana Smiljanić”, Galerija Prozori) and, in a sense, to round up my artistic production dealing with the psychological violence in partner relations. Instead of the usual practice where I refer to particular instances and problems of the contemporary art scene, I am dealing with a subject that is essentially human, ever present and necessary: I encourage women to fight and free themselves from their violent partners. I invited women who have experienced and managed to overcome any form of relationship violence to participate in the performance with their musical suggestions. We are celebrating life, respect and support, equal and responsible partnerships! The performance, apart from the subject, stands out in ambiance: this is the first time I am dancing among my drawings from the series “Zapamtićeš ti mene” (“You'll remember me”), drawn in UV color on the gallery walls, once more accentuating the force and simultaneous invisibility of the problem at hand.

U studenom Močvarom vladaju žene! Mlada srpska umjetnica Ivana Smiljanić, u suradnji s ljepšim zagrebačkim spolom priprema energičnu večer - IGRAM IGRAM IGRAM je plesni performans za koji muziku biraju sugrađanke koje su iskusile neki oblik partnerskog nasilja. U studenom Močvarom vladaju žene! Mlada srpska umjetnica Ivana Smiljanić, u suradnji s ljepšim zagrebačkim spolom priprema energičnu večer - IGRAM IGRAM IGRAM je plesni performans za koji muziku biraju sugrađanke koje su iskusile neki oblik partnerskog nasilja. Dame su rekle svoje i glazbenim odabirom skrojile osobnu play-listu koja funkcionira kao integralni dio performansa - dok umjetnica neprestano pleše, performans se snima i istovremeno projicira na odgovarajući zid galerijskog prostora, a preko live-projekcije izmjenjuju se titlovi s informacijom o svakoj pojedinoj pjesmi, tj. naziv pjesme i izvođača, kao i čiji izbor slušamo. Trajanje performansa odgovara trajanju prikupljene play-liste - najmanje 50, a najviše 190 minuta. IGRAM IGRAM IGRAM je serijal performansa u kojima Ivana poziva ljude iz različitih društvenih miljea da odaberu glazbu u sklopu rada i koji se svakim svojim izdanjem sučeljava s drugom vrstom odnosa i pojava koje čine sistem suvremene kulture - od pozicije umjetnika do marginalizacije manjinskih grupa – nakon prve izvedbe 2007. godine performans je nastavljen realizacijama u Beogradu, Vranju, Pančevu, Bergenu, Bruxellesu, Puli , Ljubljani, New Yorku, Bratislavi... “Poziv da IGRAM IGRAM IGRAM u Galeriji Močvara, iskoristila sam da se nadovežem na prošlogodišnje gostovanje u Zagrebu (Izložba „To je prava Ivana Smiljanić“, Galerija Prozori) i, u izvesnom smislu, zaokružim svoju umetničku produkciju na temu psihološkog nasilja prema ženama u partnerskom odnosu. Umesto uobičajene prakse da svojim plesnim performansima referišem na specifičnosti i probleme savremene umetničke scene, bavim se temom koja je ljudska, svevremena i neophodna: ohrabrujem žene da se odupru i oslobode nasilnih partnera. Pozvala sam žene koje su iskusile bilo koji vid nasilja u partnerskom odnosu i uspele da iz njega izađu da svojim muzičkim predlozima učestvuju u performansu. Slavimo život, poštovanje i podršku, ravnopravno i odgovorno partnerstvo! Ovaj performans se, osim temom, izdvaja i ambijentom: prvi put igram među svojim crtežima iz serije “Zapamtićeš ti mene”, izvedenim UV bojom na zidu, čime se još jednom naglašava silina i istovremena nevidljivost problema koji me zaokuplja.” Ivana Smiljanić organizatori: Udruženje za razvoj kulture “URK” + Klub Močvara & KONTEJNER | biro suvremene umjetničke prakse koncept: KONTEJNER kustosice Galerije Močvara: KONTEJNER | Ena Hodžić, Ivana Jelača & Tereza Teklić tehnički direktor: Matija Jelić projekt podržali: Ministarstvo kulture Republike Hrvatske, Grad Zagreb - Gradski ured za obrazovanje, kulturu i šport Supported [in part] by a grant from the Open Society Foundation.
