Exhibitions in Belgrade are numerous at any moment. They surprise. They impress. They introduce you to a more beautiful world than the real one. Being a step away from art, sharing the air with artists, is more valuable than wasting time on trivialities. When you have extra time and a little more will to allow yourself to move away from the usual rhythm, look for a place at one of the great art galleries. These are the top 5 exhibitions in Belgrade.
Where: Singidunum Gallery
The tenth anniversary edition of Contact, based on the author's project by Ana Marinkovic, presents the works of 86 authors from Serbia and countries in the region. The organization of the artistic spectacle is signed by "Creative Factory", which did its best to make the anniversary edition truly magnificent.
The participants were artists who, through their work, explore the importance of human contact in contemporary society, but also its absence, which has (unfortunately) been excessively replaced by modern technology. The selected exhibitors are academic artists, students of art faculties, and thanks to their talent, amateurs have also found a place at Contact. The exhibition will be open until Friday, 13th June.
Where: Kolarac Endowment Gallery
Kikinda in the heart of Belgrade! The author of the exhibition, Milorad Stepanov, has wholeheartedly conveyed the natural beauty of this unusually beautiful city in Serbia onto the canvas. The exhibited works emit positive vibes from the natural environment, from the fields, by the ponds and canals that the author regularly visits. Each painting was started in nature and finished in the studio after just one or two sessions. The exhibition is on display until Saturday, 14th June, from 10:00 to 20:00, and on Saturdays until 16:00.
Where: Museum of Contemporary Art Belgrade
Last year, a unique exhibition of films and video works was shown at the Cultural Center of Serbia "Ivo Andric" in Beijing, and now it is time for Belgrade to explore the presentation of performance actions by artists of the new artistic practice that developed in the late 1960s and throughout the 1970s in Serbia. Although it is available until 17th July, this exceptional exhibition does not deserve to be visited at the last minute. On the contrary, head to the Museum of Contemporary Art as soon as possible.
Where: Poodroom Gallery of the Belgrade Cultural Center
Spain in Belgrade! Artists Moisés Mañas and Playmodes present their works until 28th June. The Embassy of Spain supported the realization of an exhibition that highlights the connection between two, at first glance, unrelated themes: water and the constellation of stars. The originally created installation includes video, sound and items to provide the audience with a complex experience. Curators Maja Marja Jankovic and Vladimir Bjelicic will introduce you to the world of Spanish art in a unique way. The exhibition is available until 28th June.
