Ликовна колонија Грачаница / Art workshop Gracanica

Жене ствараоци на Косову и Метохији су последњих година у сенци својих мушких колега уметника. Организовањем културних манифестација и промовисањем родне равноправости Центар за мир и толеранцију и Алтернативни културни центар труди се да овакву слику на Косову промени.
Приказана је изложба посвећена женама ствараоцима и њиховим радовима који су настали током сликарско графичке колоније. Десет уметница представило је 30 сликарских и графичких радова.

Female artists have been for many years in the shadow of their male colleagues. The Centre for Peace and Tolerance is trying to change such practice by organizing cultural events and by promoting of gender equality.
Exhibition of the art pieces, organized in the Alternative Cultural centre was dedicated to female artists. Ten female artists have presented over thirty paintings and graphic works.

“ Those who make evil, never sleep,why should i?” – Bob Marley

These were the words that have opened photo exhibition “Jalovina” that was organized by Alternative Culture Center, supported by Center for peace and tolerance and OSCE mission in Kosovo. In the gallery packed with guests, 41 photographs created by young photographers and photo amateurs from Gracanica, BiH, Usa, Russia, Germany and Slovenia, were shown and all the paintings and graphics that were created during the past month in the AKC. This was also our first commercial exhibition were all the art works were available for purchase. We sold our first photos as well as some graphics, but the interest shown by our guests was what really mattered to all young artists who promised that they will not stop creating. Over 90 visitors from all over Kosovo and lots of internationals were full of positive comments which made the evening very successful.

Establishing an Alternative Youth Cultural Center in Gračanica

Hi, my name is Miša, the project coordinator of the Centre for Peace and Tolerance. Below is the project that I am implementing together with my friends and colleagues.

We are jointly working to establish an alternative cultural Center in Gračanica. Gračanica is the new established municipality which has only a traditional cultural scene, embodied in the Cultural House – a seat of very traditional artistic intervention. We had equipped and arranged new space where artists from the entire region can get together and create their art pieces. The first part of the project is  researching/mapping activist initiatives in Gračanica, Klokot, Novo Brdo, Ranilug and Parteš as the mapping of activism is one of the corner stone for successful implementation of project activities.

In this phase we tried to gain comprehensive insight into the activist scene; to identify target groups, participants, activism stakeholders and potential partners at different stages of the project; to form connections between related networks, associations, organizations, institutions, and so on, encouraging their readiness to form partnerships and perform joint activist tasks.

We had identified artists and got them together in organizing multi-media art exhibition in Gračanica. Over 20 artists from different parts of Kosovo will get together for a two day exhibition and interaction with local population.  People will attend a never-before seen gallery of sculpted works and many young people will be really thrilled to see artists working and setting up their art pieces (and maybe even sell some).
