INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE - SYMBOLIC
AND PERSONAL GEOGRAPHIES OF CONTEMPORARY ART
International conference, Continental Breakfast -
SYMBOLIC AND PERSONAL GEOGRAPHIES OF CONTEMPORARY ART
was organised for the first time within the 45th October
Art Salon. The Conference was held on September 11th and
12th 2004 in the 25th May Museum - Museum of
Yugoslav history, in Belgrade.
The Conference was held in four working sessions and
several discussions. During the Conference the questions
of symbolic and personal geographies of contemporary art
were raised.
The theoretical frame of the October Art Salon helped
us understand the art/cultural phenomena not just through
works of art but also through new scientific thinking.
The new regards and definitions of international and
domestic art/cultural scene, the new contents and strategies,
the question of identity and intercultural dialogue in
a sense of common practice on the unique scene of contemporary
art, which have been presented by speakers during the
Conference, are published in the bilingual Compendium,
Symbolic and Personal Geographies of Contemporary
Art.
The organizer thanks to all participants and institutions
which have supported this project and helped us to realize
the International conference, within the 45th October
Art Salon, Continental Breakfast, Belgrade.
