Udruženje za savremenu umjetnost NAZOR/Association for Contemporary Art NAZOR noun- view, opinion, belief; adverb- do something by force;
Udruženje za savremenu umjetnost NAZOR, potpuno nezavisno, dobrovljno i apolitično udruženje čiji je cilj osvježenje i poboljšanje likovne scene mladih na prostoru na kojem djelujemo i živimo. Našim ciljevima i zadacima ćemo biti predani sve dok ne propadnemo, a i nakon toga, jer ćemo stvarati NAZOR.
-Stvarat ćemo umjetnost, jer je to ono čime želimo da se bavimo!
-Odlučili smo da sami sebi stvorimo prilike, onakve kakve mi želimo, kako bismo mogli djelovati umjetnošću protiv svega naopakog.
- Primarni cilj udruženja je promocija umjetnosti njegovih članova, milom ili silom, NAZOR, kako bi nas ljudi upoznali, a kada postanemo poznati onda možemo da radimo šta hoćemo i da to nazovemo kako hoćemo (s koliko malo se možemo provući? how little can we get away with?).
- Želimo da umjetnost bude dostupna svim ljudima koji nas okružuju a koji nisu direktno ili indirektno involvirani u umjetničkom svijetu, a nisu nam ni rodbina; Vrlo često smo svjedoci, prilikom posjeta izložbama ili kulturnim događajima, da je publika uglavnom homogena, sastavljena od ljudi koje očekujete da ćete vidjeti tu.
- Želimo obrazovanu i informisanu publiku koja ima stav! Jedan od osnovnih problema u umjetnosti u Sarajevu ( i u Bosni i Hercegovini) je odnos prema publici, i odnos publike prema umjetnosti. Publika je rezignirana i ne posjeduje kritičku svijest, a to je proizašlo iz neadekvatnog pristupa umjetnika ka publici, te iz propusta u formalnom obrazovanju. Umjetnost stvaramo za sve ljude i ako je već umjetnost ta koja treba da svjedoči o svom vremenu, da reaguje i provocira, da mijenja ili pruža drugačiju perspektivu, onda ona treba da bude iskomunicirana širim masama. Ovakav način djelovanja će podrazumijevati umjetnost tamo gdje joj je mjesto, a vrlo često tamo gdje je najmanje očekujete;
- Očigledno je da je kultura bla bla...gdje je kultura? U zemlji u kojoj imamo ogromnih problema sa nemanjem kulture, sa urušenim sistemom vrijednosti, želimo da kreiramo, reagujemo, napadamo kulturom, sve dok to ne postane rutina i poželjno, a i nakon toga NAZOR.
- Dugoročno želimo proizvesti kulturno, umjetničko i likovno naslijeđe, te ostaviti ga u amanet generacijama koje dolaze. Kultura se uči i naslijeđuje, pa ćemo raditi i potruditi se da ostavimo adekvatan trag u vremenu u kojem živimo. Young enthusiasts have decided, helter skelter, to form association by the name NAZOR ( FIRST ARTIST-RUN INITIATIVE FOR CULTURAL ASSAULT) with slogans: ‘HELTER SKELTER’; ‘IT ‘S NOT NAZOR IF IT’S NOT TWICE’. We are the first artist-run initiative for cultural assault, in the right words Association for contemporary art NAZOR, completely independent, voluntary and apolitical association, with the cause of empowering and enriching art scene in an area where we live and work. We’ll be dedicated to our causes and assignments until we go down and even after that because we’ll create NAZOR.
- We will make art, because that’s what we want to do!
- We'll make our own opportunities for making art, the ones that we want, so that we could react with art against all kinds of wrong things.
- Primary cause of NAZOR is promotion of it’s members, easy or the hard way, NAZOR, so that people would get to know us, and when we become famous, we’ll do what we want and call it the way we want. (How little can we get away with?)
- We want to make art available to all people in our surrounding, that are not directly or indirectly involved in arts, and are not family either; Visiting exhibitions and cultural events, we often witness to homogenous audience, mostly formed of people you expect to find there.
-We want educated and informed audience with an attitude! One of the main problems in art is relation towards audience and their relation towards art. The audience is resigned and has no critical awareness, that’s derived from inadequate approach of artists towards audience and as a result of failures in formal education. We make art for all the people, and as art is the one that testifies of it’s time, reacts and provokes, changes or offers different perspective, then it should be communicated to wider audience. These kinds of activities will imply art where it should be and more frequently where it shouldn’t.
- It is obvious that the culture bla bla…where is the culture? In a country where we have enormous problems with a lack of culture, and where human values are degraded, we want to create, react, and attack with culture, until it becomes a routine and desirable, and even after that, NAZOR. In long terms we want to create cultural and art heritage, for generations that are to come. Culture is something that we learn and inherit, so we’ll do our best to leave an adequate trace in our time.
*NAZOR- in Bosnian language it has two meanings, as a noun and as an adverb.
