Dirk Cieslak - City Of Partisans
© D.Cieslak
City of Partisans is an audio-visual hymn to the cruel and victorious struggle of the partisans of Yugoslavia, who were able to liberate their country from fascism by their own efforts.
It is a journey into the impressive landscape of modern memorial architecture, built on countless necropolises of partisans and victims of occupation and resistance scattered all over the country. They are places that invite to gather, to celebrate, to linger - built for the children of the new utopian society founded on Brotherhood and Unity. And which should not last in the 21st century.
In the video installation "City of Partisans" the monuments -spomeniks- of the memory landscape of Yugoslavia gain a new epic power, leaving all dystopias behind. The Spomeniks are snatched from oblivion, destruction and nationalist reinterpretations. The gaze opens to the partisans in the clouds in the sky of the future, from where they call us to join them - to raise anew the questions of "brotherhood and sisterhood" and "unity". And the unimaginable warning reaches us that their struggle and suffering is still ahead of us.
City of Partisans is the fifth production in the Vierte Welt series BLOCK, which explores the utopias of progressive modernity cast in concrete.
