Fotoknjiga in fotozin
Skupinska razstava (1.-30. september 2018)
Sobota, 1. september ob 17.00, Avla.GT22, Maribor
FB dogodek


Razstava je pregled produkcije fotoknjig in fotozinov v Sloveniji v preteklih petih letih. Njena živahnost in raznolikost kažeta na razumevanje medija fotoknjige in fotozina kot prostora avtonomnega avtorskega izražanja in izjavljanja. V tem je bistven nosilec sporočila fotografija, danes eden najbolj razširjenih in populariziranih medijev, ki pa ga zaradi domnevno očitne neposrednosti tudi najlažje spregledamo.

Photobook and photozine
group exhibition
1-30 September 2018 

Opening: Saturday, 1 September 2018 at 5 pm

The exhibition is an overview of the production of photobooks and photozines in Slovenia in the last five years. Its liveliness and variety indicate an understanding of the photobook and the photozine as a space of autonomous expression and statement by the author, the key bearer of the message being the photograph, one of the most widespread and popularised media today, though often the easiest to overlook due to its supposedly obvious directness.

ZINE VITRINE | Tea Hvala: P.S. Vrni znamke

Odprtje razstave bo v torek, 21. marca, ob 19h, v DobriVagi (Adamič-Lundrovo nabrežje 5, Ljubljana)

Med trike, ki so ustvarjanju in izmenjavi zinov dajali občutek prevratništva, je v devetdesetih letih prejšnjega stoletja spadalo premazovanje poštnih znamk z milom ali lepilom za papir. Tako se žig ni prijel in znamke so bile uporabne večkrat. Trik ti je poleg prihranka in veselja ob potegavščini prinesel ohlapno zagotovilo, da bo na tvoj naslov prej ali slej (skupaj z zbledelimi znamkami) prispel nov zin. In prihajali so od vsepovsod: iz nekdanje Jugoslavije, Evrope, obeh Amerik, Filipinov in Malezije. Na dokazih – škatlah zinov, pisem in razglednic (kajpak brez znamk) – se odtlej nabira prah.

S to razstavo se zini iz lepega, intimnega spomina na sceno iz devetdesetih v mojih očeh spreminjajo v razstavne eksponate, pa čeprav se vse, kar nas je, fanzinarje, takrat gnalo, temu upira. In čeprav so nekateri zini na razstavi še vredni branja, čeprav (sama ali z drugimi) še naredim kakšen zin, današnja scena pa je nadvse živa, je pri izboru prevladal zgodovinski pogled. Narekovala mi ga je vitrina – da o poštnih nalepkah in samolepljivih znamkah sploh ne govorim. – Tea Hvala

Tea Hvala je svoj prvi zin Pssst … objavila leta 1997. Po štirih številkah in pol so sledili Potopis kože (2001), Slastičarna (KUD Anarhiv & KUD Mreža, 2002), The Curved (2004), Izvajanje velikega blatarja (samozaložba Damijan Kracina, 2007), 3 Stories (2010), Togi nasmehi (2013), Razkorak (LBAL, 2015) in Podzemlje (samozaložba Bata Leviki, 2016). Med letoma 2008 in 2016 je na delavnicah Svetovi drugih soustvarjala zine kolektivno ustvarjenih zgodb in kolažev.

One of the tricks that made you feel like a rebel when making and trading zines in the 1990s was coating stamps with soap or paper glue. This prevented the postmark from sticking, so the stamps could be used several times. In addition to savings and a prankster’s joy, the trick bore the loose promise of a new zine arriving at your address, sooner or later (in addition to some very faded stamps). And the zines came from everywhere: the former Yugoslavia, Europe, both Americas, the Philippines and Malaysia. Ever since then, dust has been gathering on the evidence – boxes of zines, letters and postcards.

In my eyes, this exhibition transforms the zines from a lovely, intimate memory of the 1990s scene to museum exhibits, even though this goes against everything that drove us, fanziners, at the time. And even though some of the featured zines are still worth reading, even though I still make a zine on occasion (alone or with others), and even though today’s scene is very much alive, the selection is dominated by a historic view. It was dictated by the showcase – and don’t even get me started on the mailing labels and self-adhesive stamps.

Tea Hvala published her first zine Pssst … in 1997. After four issues and a half, it was followed by Potopis kože (2001), Slastičarna (KUD Anarhiv & KUD Mreža, 2002), The Curved (2004), Izvajanje velikega blatarja (self-published, Damijan Kracina, 2007), 3 Stories (2010), Stiff Smiles (2013), Discord (LBAL, 2015) and Podzemlje (self-published, Bata Leviki, 2016). Between 2008 and 2016, she co-authored zines of collectively created stories and collages during the In OtherWor(l)ds workshops.
