About the artist

Anja Medved studied theater directing at Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and TV in Ljubljana, she now investigates the issues that intrigue her in video, documentary film and actions in public space. Her work focuses on probing (historical) memory. Through the personal stories of people living on both sides of the border she explores the complexities of border identities and the constructs of national histories. Creating social interstices she addresses the contradictions of life on the border. She examines the topology of the margin of apparently different realities, which, in the case of her hometown, occupy the same location. She sets the concept of the dramatic device of a play within a play as a possible process of subjectivisation in the specific space of Nova Gorica and Gorizia, which – now that the external borders have been eliminated – finally have a chance to push their internal limits.
Since 1998 she has been active member of Kinoatelje. In collaboration with Nadja Velušček she directed documentary films These Were Not Birds (Niso bile ptice), My Borderline (Moja meja), Town On The Meadow (Mesto na travniku), Binding Memories (Sešivalnica spomina) and Timeless River (Trenutek reke).

O umetnici

Anja Medved (1969) (1969) je diplomirala iz gledališke režije na Akademiji za gledališče, film, radio in televizijo v Ljubljani. Danes svoja raziskovanja podaja preko videa, dokumentarnih filmov in akcij v javni sferi. Njeno delovanje je usmerjeno v sondiranje (zgodovinskega) spomina. Preko pripovedi ljudi, ki živijo na obeh straneh meje, raziskuje kompleksnosti obmejnih identitet ter konstrukte nacionalnih zgodovin. Ustvarja družbene vmesne prostore in presprašuje protislovja, ki jih odpira življenje na meji. Raziskuje topologijo roba na videz različnih realnosti, ki pa v primeru njenega kraja ležita na istem mestu. Koncept dramaturškega pojma igre v igri, kot možnega procesa subjektivizacije, postavi v konkreten prostor obeh Goric, ki imata končno, po odstranitvi zunanjih, priložnost preizkusiti tudi svoje notranje meje.
V okviru čezmejne kulturne organizacije Kinoatelje s sedežem v Gorici in Novi Gorici vodi večletni projekt ohranjanja spomina Arhiv pozab. V produkciji Kinoatelje sta v tandemu z Nadjo Velušček posneli vrsto dokumentarcev, med drugim Niso letele ptice, Moja Meja, Mesto na travniku, Sešivalnica spomina in Trenutek reke.

O Kinoateljeju

Avdiovizualni in medkulturni center Kinoatelje je leta 1977 nastal v Gorici na pobudo filmskega kritika, profesorja sociologije in senatorja Italijanske republike Darka Bratine, da bi se zavzemal za odprto družbo ter preko filma in videa vzpodbujal dialog med italijanskim in slovenskim kulturnim prostorom. Danes je Kinoatelje z organizacijo medkulturnih projektov prisoten na obeh straneh meje. Poleg promocije filmske kulture, deluje na področju avdiovizualne produkcije, založništva, prireditvene in raziskovalne dejavnosti ter ohranjanja kulturne dediščine.
