U svojim radovima, kao na primer u seriji fotografija „Pozdrav iz Jugoslavije 2003-2009“Alen Aligrudić, psihoanalitičkim seciranjem „post-sveta“ prikazuje reperkusije na ljudsku psihu kroz metaforu izgubljene zemlje. Kako su njegovi raniji radovi reflektovali direktno teme vezane za lokalitet uz priličnu dozu subjektivnog doživljaja, tako noviji radovi govore o umetniku dobro poznatoj teritoriji ex YU prostora sa refleksijom na globalni fenomen post-komunističkog društva u borbi za novi kulturni identitet, i sa druge strane distance koja postaje sve veća i veća. 

Paralelno, Alen Aligrudić će prestaviti dva najnovija rada koja reflektuju društvo u kojem živi, očekivanja od tog društva, kao i njegov analitički pristup sličnostima i razlikama koje se pre svega ocrtavaju u ljudskoj prirodi nevezanoj za lokaciju. U jednom od ovih radova Alen koristi poslovice, dok je drugi vođen mogućnostima fotografskog medija ali je realizovan kao multimedijalni projekat u saradnji sa piscem Rafael Garido i sound umjetnikom Kristoffer J. Rosing-Schow.

METAMORPHOSIS OF THE PARADIGMS

Tuesday, 17th of April 2012 at 8pm
Cultural Center REX
Jevrejska 16
Belgrade, Serbia

Presentation of the artworks of Alen Aligrudić
http://www.rex.b92.net/sr/ovogmeseca/...

In his works, such as in the photo-series “Greetings from Yugoslavia 2003-2009” Alen Aligrudić performs psychoanalytical dissection of post-world and its repercussion on the human psyche through the metaphor of a lost land. Notwithstanding that narratives related to Yugoslavia can be interpreted as a local issue, he is certain that some reflections and comparisons to other places in this world are not entirely out of place - if the angle is about human nature in its core. In this work personal/collective memories play a role in which history is taken out of context and put into a new fiction form.

As his earlier works reflect themes directly site-specific related with a considerable dose of subjective experience, in recent studies he represents the for him well-known territory of ex YU space with the reflections on the global phenomenon of the post-communist society in the struggle for a new cultural identity, and its distance which becomes bigger and bigger.

At the same, Alen Aligrudić presents the two most recent works which reflect the society in which he lives, the expectations of that society, as well as his analytical approach to the similarities and differences that are primarily reflected in the human nature, not importantly site-specific. In one of these works Alen use proverbs, while the other is driven by the possibilities of the photographic medium, and is implemented as a multimedia project in partnership with writer Rafael Garrido and sound artist Kristoffer J. Rosing-Schow.



Alen Aligrudić was born in Tuzla, Yugoslavia 1977, he graduated Film Academy in Prague – FAMU/ BA in photography and obtained master degree at Funen Art Academy, Odense, Denmark. He lives and works in Copenhagen, Danmark.
