JUICY/Juice

THOSE WHO APPRECIATE QUALITY ENJOY IT RESPONSIBLY

 

If you had an unlimited budget and all the time you needed. What would you do?
I would buy my self a fruit factory to make my own JUICE....not for sale, just for me and my friends.

 

We are all born in a cultural environment, which determines our life and our perception of the world. We consider our daily life to be the only reality. For that reason our choice in life is very limited and predictable, as it is predetermined.
Here, the system of relations between art and commerce also indicates the importance narrative or storytelling has in an age of information economies.This implies that the adoption of this concept by all these different disciplines gives rise to hybridisation of different disciplinary discourses.
Most importantly the concept of collective ownership implies responsibility and the survival of common resources rely on the willingness of people to take their vitality from their connectedness to real life embodied needs and issues.
Using graphical representations often explains complicated procedures quckly so that viewers can understand your process without a lot of confusion.
Final words?
Whenever we expose an idea, we experience a realization, which results in expanded awareness as wisdom and recovered self responsibility.
From self responsibility, possibilities are infinite…

Atanas Botev (WINER YVAA DENES 2006)
 
 
WWW.MARKOS.COM
oil on canvas, 2005
 
The title of the work is actually pointing to the paradox that famous Mexican guerilla leader Subkomandante Markos (firend of Oliver Stoun and Gabriel Garsija Markes) become anti globalistic idol thanks to globalization and mass media. According Fernandez Kastro director of Foreign Affairs, charismatic leader of the Zapatistas Army, would not be known in whole world if he didn’t use the new global communication technologies.
He is communicating with his followers all around the world using satellite phones and Internet. Estimations are that there are around 45000 web sites located in 26 countries which are connected with the Zapatistas. Few years ago American army analytics declare that guerilla fights of the Zapatistas are actually Net war.

instalation, 2005
 
The creative adventure of this young graphics artist is multi-meaningful. Not only does it refer to the double-sided averse-reverse printing on the graphic sheet, the achievement of tactile values of the applied technique, the replacement of the traditional material-the paper by transparent plexiglass surface, but it also tackles the tridimensional presentation, that is, the spatial arrangement of the whole of the envisioned presentation of the composition. Through the double-sided, atypical printing on the graphic sheets, Veteroska strives to establish a spontaneous and subtle dialogue with the Byzantine ceremonial double-sided icons.

Marija Veteroska, born in Skopje, 1980. Faculty of Fine Arts in Skopje, BFA, 2004, Department of graphic and graphic design.

ARACHINOVO 2001st
oil on canvas, 2005
 

Arachinovo 2001st is a project realized in year 2005 and it is consisted from variety of artworks made in different techniques. The six big format paintings (220 x 175) made in hyperrealist style are personal experiences of the author and her view on the happenings in Arachinovo in year 2001.
Through the processes of the opening of her privacy Petrushevska is showing her dramatic experiences connected with the war conflict and her expelling from Arachinovo where she lived before. Topics of destroyed houses, burned roofs and broken tiles are part of the reality today.
Aiming her concentration to the burning questions of her own live experience, this idea of presenting the actual situation in the big format paintings is coming as a foreplay of the bigger project called Arachinovo 2001st

Aleksandra Petrusevska is born in Skopje, 1981. Faculty of Fine Arts in Skopje, BFA 2005. Department of Paintng, in the class of the prof. Jovan Sumkovski.
