Anja Resman: ONKRAJ OBRAZA

26. november – 15. december 2024
Stekleni atrij ljubljanske Mestne hiše
(odprto med 8.00–20.00, decembra med 8.00–22.00)

🚩 Odprtje razstave: torek, 26. november 2024, 18.00

Razstava Onkraj obraza, ki jo otvarjamo v okviru letošnje Animateke, predstavlja istoimenski profesionalni prvenec avtorice Anje Resman, ki je ustvarjen v tehniki lutkovne stop animacije. Animirani film temelji na različnih podzvrsteh vizualne umetnosti, kot so risba, oblikovanje in fotografija, kar oblikuje njegov vizualni jezik in umetniški slog. Dobro izvedena animacija ustvari iluzijo gibanja, kar lahko zakrije specifike izdelave, zato so razstave animiranega filma dragocene, saj omogočajo novo dojemanje animacije skozi prizmo vizualne umetnosti.

Motivacija za zgodbo temelji na besedah Amande Richardson: »V svetu, v katerem vsi nosijo maske, je privilegij videti dušo.« Film spremlja mladega moškega, ki se spominja travmatičnega odraščanja in izgube otroštva, ko mu oče nadane brezizrazno masko. Odločitev, da masko sname, ga privede v dimenzijo, združujočo perspektivi otroka in odraslega, vendar ne brez posledic.

Na razstavi so predstavljene scenografija starega mestnega jedra, ki črpa estetiko iz slovenskih mest, in sob staromeščanskega stanovanja z detajlnimi miniaturnimi rekviziti ter spretno izdelane lutke. Onkraj obraza obravnava splošno nesenzibilnost v sodobni družbi, hkrati pa s simbolnim jezikom in spominom na otroško radovednost opozarja na izginjajoče vrednote.

Anja Resman: BEYOND THE FACE
26 November – 15 December 2024
Glass Atrium, Town Hall Ljubljana
(open: everyday 8 am-8 pm, in December 8 am -10pm)

🚩 Exhibition Opening: 26 November 2024, 6pm

Opening as part of the International Animated Film Festival Animateka 2024, Beyond the Face is an exhibition that gives insight into Anja Resman’s eponymous professional debut film, created using the stop-motion puppet animation technique. Animation is based on many sub-genres of visual art, such as drawing, design, and photography, which shape its visual language and artistic style. The illusion of movement created by well-executed animation can obscure the specifics of the production technique; therefore, animation exhibitions are valuable as they allow for a new perception of animation through the prism of visual art.

The motivation for the film is based on the words of Amanda Richardson: “In a world where everyone wears a mask, it’s a privilege to see a soul.” The story is told through the eyes of a young man reminiscing about his traumatic upbringing and the loss of his childhood when his father put an expressionless mask on his face. His decision to remove the mask leads him into a dimension that combines the perspectives of a child and an adult, but not without consequences.

The exhibition showcases the sets of the old town street, which draws its aesthetics from various Slovenian towns, rooms of the old town apartment with intricate miniature props, and deftly crafted puppets. Beyond the Face explores general insensitivity in contemporary society while using symbolic language and recalling childhood curiosity to point to disappearing values.
