video projection and conversation, in trieste contemporanea at 6 pm

Vladimir Nikolić will be present on Thursday 30 November in Trieste in a special event as part of the sixteenth edition of the “Piccolo Festival dell’Animazione” by Viva Comix. The event (at Studio Tommaseo at 6 pm) is organised as part of the Trieste programme of the Festival: an unmissable opportunity for the animation audience to dialogue with the Belgrade-born artist and to watch and comment on some of the cornerstones of his renowned video production with the artist himself, Festival curator Paola Bristot and Giuliana Carbi Jesurun, who invited Nikolić to present his video installation “Rhythm” in a solo exhibition (which can be visited until 29 November at Studio Tommaseo). Read more about the exhibition Rhythm.
The selection of projections planned during the PFA conversation features the videos “Painting” from 2009 and “An Act in Space” from 2013, two works in which the Serbian artist is particularly close to the process of constructing an animation video.
