>
> "BLOOD & HONEY" is an attractive title, particularly in Austria.
Only in
> Austria an exhibit evokes like the corpse car in Sarajevo of a
student named
> Gavrilo Princip murdered successor to the throne Franz
Ferdinand and its wife
> Sophie countess Chotek the First World War and in
consequence the end of the
> many people state. Also the Osmani realm, which divided with
the Austrians the
> Balkans, was forced in this time (Balkans wars 1912/13) to the
retreat.
>
> Blood is not only for Rudolf Steiner and Joseph Beuys the most
precious juice,
> also the Viennese actionists loves the red liquid. "BLOOD &
HONEY" is beside
> "mountains" a possible translation of the Balkans. The title,
thrown from
> Melentie Pandilovski during a meeting of the members of the
BAN (the Balkans
> kind network) into the discussion, was to be tackled for me the
trip, the
> project. "more than one group exhibition of a certain part of
Europe, a type
> of exhibition, which was maintained again and again in the west,
promised
> BLOOD & HONEY". The title evokes the poles of anger and
tenderness, disaster
> and idyl, of deeply human one and universal one.

> I have that several times established with exhibitions like
"Visionaere
> Switzerland", "Austria in the rose net" go "hats you from your
dreams you
> could be in the dreams to other one again" (100 years art in
Poland), which
> starting point were a country, from whose culture from free
magnetic fields of
> the associations a world was suggested, poetically and
A-historically. At the
> einpraegsamsten this succeeded reliably with "Monte Veritр. The
mountain of
> the truth "and the utopias such as anarchy, Theosophie, life
reform,
> Sexualrevolution, lived on it, m., whose representative fought
each other in
> the life, but by the exhibition was possible among other things it
to let it
> all appear like the embodiment of an ideal society their
conception worlds and
> ideologies another history of Central Europe suggested. Also the
sub-title of
> this exhibition is to be understood about therefore it: "future is at
the
> Balkans" refers not only to a South-east Europe, which has the
multi-cultural
> unit still before itself, but also on the connecting under this
multilingual
> Ethnien and religions, majorities and minorities ? by art. It
concerns here
> thus not pointing out Exotik, but the integration of a culture
landscape into
> the consciousness of western sensitivity.
>
> While the line of the Biennale in Venice I could experience, as
importantly
> straight these countries their national agency was and as very
the countries
> of the east were interested in it by their operational readiness
level to show
> that also they belong to Europe. Already in former times, but now
more
> intensively, contacts were attached at that time to Serbia,
Slovenia,
> Bulgaria, Albania, also Ukraine, to Poland and Armenia. The
enthusiasm and the
> solidarity among artists and curators in the different centers
made me happy.
> I felt carried back to the 1950er and 60's, when artists were my
actual
> informants.
