O Bredi Beban

 

 It is great pleasure that Trieste Contemporanea now makes this little book available to friends and scholars.

This is a collection from the symposium on the art and life of Breda Beban organized on April 22th, 2017 in Trieste, curators Ana Čavić and Dubravka Cherubini and in association with the artist’s estate and the Kalfayan Galleries (Athens – Thessaloniki).

The symposium had the collaboration of the Slade School of Fine Art, University College London, that gave us the joy of seeing the video recording of a lecture Breda gave at this educational institution in 2008, and amazingly commenting her 2006 video The most beautiful woman in Gucha.

Drawing on the experience of international art curators and art world professionals that were also Breda’s close friends, this first symposium, dedicated to Breda Beban five years after she died, offered a unique perspective in considering the significance and impact of her artistic work and the teaching.

With very personal memories, critical themes in contemporary art have been explored, which are closely related to Beban’s work – such as artist and morality or photography (humans and love) on the margins of big stories about geography and politics. So, now an intense and complete portrayal of the great artistic and moral figure of Breda, who I too had the honour of knowing and loving, emerges from these pages.
