The beginning of the joint venture of diSTRUKTURA is marked by the Face to Face series of photographs as well as with the photograph, entitled Missing Hill I from 2005. The picture showcases the artists with their backs turned against the viewer while gazing in the devastated landscape in the vicinity of closed and deserted copper mine in Majdanpek, Serbia. This work characterised further creative production of the couple who focused on questioning extended notions of nature nowadays and on redefining landscape genre in the period after the industrial, technological and digital revolutions. Since then diSTRUKTURA has been consistently developing its art works across different artistic media, from photography and painting, to drawing, video and installation. This book is therefore the first extensive monographic publication where all the projects from the past ten years are documented, inventoried and analysed: Face to Face, Third Landscape, Cities: Psychogeographic Experiments, We are Living in a Beautiful wOURld, Mitteleuropäische Landschaft, Not so Far Away and The Best of Leisure.

In the Gastropoda project artist deals with the “metabolism of images” inspired by the accidental co-authorship of snails, which ate the mail invitations to exhibition openings in Fontcuberta’s home mailbox. It is still possible, however, to discern the shapes of the original images in the selected “metabolised” works.

25 years after the end of the conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Somnambulism discusses the importance of culture and urban fabric in the construction-destruction-reconstruction of the country. In four different stages, the reader will experience a metaphorical wandering of night and day walking between the old and new infrastructures, buildings and monuments. Firstly, in a once-upon-a-time journey between Sarajevo and Belgrade, historical events unfold the Yugoslav intercultural nation born after the World War II. Then, landscapes still offended by the tragedy of the war and of the urbicide, reveal the collective amnesia of the 1992–1995 conflict. In the last two stages, the dualism between division and unity betoken the contemporary terrain of Bosnia and Herzegovina, marked both by the visible presence of religious monuments and by landscapes which uprise to avoid the oblivion of the multicultural common past. With her photographs, Lara Ciarabellini is able to show the change in the web of intertwining layers of the Yugoslav and Bosnian collective memory in the last decades, adding a new and personal point of view in the analysis of the aftermath of the war. Poems, texts, and archival pictures accompany her and reader's journey. Avtor: Lara Ciarabellini Besedilo: Š.Daupović Fiko, C. Elia, E. Forto, A Klemenčić, P. Lowe, S. Milio, T. Novosel, D.

‘Until Death Do Us Part’ series is the result of two-year photographic project on weddings in Europe, with an accent on cross-cultural couples and certain cultural meanderings, the product of the constant shifts of borders, migrations, globalisation and acculturation. The project represents a visual investigation of the phenomenon of the wedding ceremony and party as one of the crucial anthropological genres, which has for thousands of years played a pivotal role in the ritual life of the human race. In essence, this tradition has remained largely unchanged, despite newly emerging trends and cultural, racial or gender traversing, and in spite of the fact that marriage as an institution is no longer regarded as something so necessarily desirable. Photographs from this series examine the phenomenon of marriage and of wedding ceremony across Europe, often represented as a glamorous pagan ritual paying great attention towards certain fragments of national tradition and folklore of newlyweds and their families. Despite her straight documentary approach and anthropological aims Katarina Radović captures incidental and secondary motifs that often produce metaphysically stressed images with ability to confuse the perception of the seen.

Fabula je enostavna. Protagonistu, naravni svetlobi, sledimo v treh poglavjih, ko postopoma razkriva in deidealizira. V prvem prodirajoči svetlobni snopi odstirajo drobne detajle in ustvarjajo mistične, sanjske podobe. Lahko bi bili kjerkoli. Nato nas lumen popelje v otipljivejše, a se v celoti podreja geometričnosti. Šele v tretjem poglavju osvetli izmučeno telo nekdanje porodnišnice in zidove sleče do prepoznavnosti. Neizprosen je, razkrije bedo, toda obenem prinaša upanje, svetlobo in toplino…” Renata Štebih, umetnostna zgodovinarka Avtor: Nataša Segulin Besedilo: Renata Štebih, Andrej Medved Oblikovanje: Tomato Košir Založnik: Galerija Fotografija Dimenzije: 28 x 28 cm Trda vezava, 96 strani Leto: 2019 ISBN: 9789619455210 -
A Manual for Silence is a photo-text booklet based on an ongoing sequence of photographs bearing the same title. Images may tell the narrative, the testimony, via its absence — the vacancy of the subject. Text conjures images by beleaguering the unspeakable — pasting words and sentences onto the invisible form until it reveals a wireframe of the object.
Perhaps there — behind this impediment, the existence of it all is to be found. In the failed correspondence of mumbling planes and shards of breached conventions. In the imminent erosion of understanding, solely a silent touch can soothe.

Ana Bilankov’s first comprehensive monograph and at the same time an artist’s book is structurally conceived as a kind of experimental film, a non-chronological ‘storyboard’ of her conceptual art works made in the media photography, video / experimental film, installation and text in the last twenty years. Structured into ten chapters, the book raises a series of questions on the subject of poetics/politics of dislocation, migration, nomadism, individual and collective memory and construction of identity within “in-between-ness”. Many projects have emerged in diverse geographic contexts thanks to several international residencies in different European cities, Moscow and New York, or in both of the author’s hometowns, Zagreb and Berlin. The book includes rich photographic and video material as well as the texts written by the author and also two theoretical essays: “Some Future Film” by the art theorist Leonida Kovač and “The Poetry and Revolution of Ana Bilankov” by the film theorist and philosopher Marijan Krivak, and has been designed by Hamper studio Zagreb.

SALE!Poklon 100. obletnici Bauhausa Kakšen pomen ima foto-kolaž v današnjem času, nasičenem s fragmentiranimi vizualnimi podobami in vseprisotnimi »specialnimi učinki« novih tehnologij..? S projektom A New Vision of Debris, poskušamo odgovoriti na zastavljeno vprašanje s predstavitvijo desetih avtorskih pozicij regionalno uveljavljenih avtorjev/ic, ki uporabljajo foto-kolaž kot umetniško tehniko, ki reflektira današnji kaotični, prenasičen čas in ponuja določene perspektive o umetnosti in svetu. Obenem pa predstavlja naš projekt poklon legendarni šoli Bauhaus, ki letos slavi 100-letnico ustanovitve, predvsem nekaterim njenim protagonistom, ki so poučevali fotografijo in ki so uveljavili foto-kolaž kot novo in legitimno umetniško prakso.
