A NEW CCNS PUBLICATION: “DIALOGUE ON FESTIVALS” The Cultural Centre of Novi Sad organised a meeting with the topic of a “Dialogue on Festivals” in October last year. Soon after that, the reading audiences were offered a book with the same title published by CCNS and signed by Simon Grabovac, in the role of the project author and editor. In his introductory text he explains that a serious dialogue on festivals is simply an imposition invited by the fact that our cultural environment has become a field of a virtual explosion of events of this type. Grabovac points out that besides the positive side (relevance, success, theoretical advances) the phenomenon (of such an explosion) of festivals has its negative aspects as well (financial disproportion, different levels of quality, a lack of integration)… One of the authors represented in this book is architect Radivoje Dinulović, whose text deals with public space as a festival stage. Yesterday, Dinulović pointed out some of the dilemmas revealed in the interaction of festivals and public spaces, such as the issue of what attitude public events have towards urban spaces. Some other texts in this collection dedicated to festivals discuss the same issues, among which Dinulović selected the contributions of Jovan Ćirilov and Milena Dragićević-Šešić. Besides these authors, “Dialogue on Festivals” brings the texts by Jelena Janković, Srđan Vučinić, Simon Grabovac, Dimitrije Vujadinović, Dijana Milošević and Milovan Zdravković. |
