Kosovo: Indefinite Rituals
2006年9月25日至10月29日
开幕：2006年9月24日
参加艺术家：Florian Agalliu, Alban Muja, Driton Hajredini, Iliros, Zake Prelvukaj, Adrian Williams 和 Sislej Xhafa
'模糊仪式'是通过新东方风格和新奥斯曼主义可以在公共地方看到的，以及被人创造的新楼。
人们在图书馆里礼拜的时候，这些仪式就被艺术家认识到。这个图书馆就在一个占领时被米洛舍维奇建筑的基督正教堂的对面。阿尔巴尼亚艺术家，像Florian Agalliu，在他们作品里提到这些问题。
在他的录像里，“仪式”，Agalliu描绘一个新奥斯曼反映：人们在Pristina图书馆里聚会来礼拜，就在米洛舍维奇定做但一直没完成的基督正教堂。这个建筑在美术学院旁边， 是一个水泥建筑。
从2006年9月24日到10月29日，Leonhardi文化计划介绍Florian Agalliu, Alban Muja, Driton Hajredini, Ilirios, Zake Prelvukaj, Adrian Williams, 和Sislej Xhafa (Live debate)的作品，题目为“ 模糊仪式”。
这些年轻艺术家从他们家被赶走时受到了大的影响。
他们的作品提到这些经验。比如，Alban Muja,画了他的老家的一个新当代历史博物馆的平面图，因为他不允许回他小时候住的地方。Driton Hajredini住在德国，但他在行李上画黑鸟，因为科索沃的意思就是“黑鸟田”。他的图片“保护者”的意义很清楚：两个鸟在箱子坐着，准备好走。
Adrian Williams 跟Shannon Bool在Prishtina创立了一个当代艺术图书馆，和开始收藏摄影以便宣传这个计划。
Zake Prelvukaj 通过她摄影和自己的身体描绘在科索沃民主主义的矛盾，她也在Pristina的美术学院当教授，以及会介绍她的学生的作品。
在这些作品里能看到一种无决定化，就像科索沃的状况没决定。这个情况影响科索沃的文化表达方式，而被这些作品抓住了。

Indefinite rituals are visible through a neo-Oriental style and neo-Ottomanism in the public sphere, and in new facades built by individuals.
These rituals are recognized by artists when people are praying at a library. This library stands opposite an Orthodox church which was built by Milosevic during the occupation.
Albanian artists such as Florian Agalliu are addressing these issues in their work. In his video work ?Rituals?, Agalliu depicts a neo-Ottoman reaction: men gathering to pray at the library in Pristina, opposite the Orthodox church whose construction was ordered by Milosevic but never completed. It stands next to the Faculty of Arts, a concrete monument which not only destroys the unity of the area but also makes it impossible to build on the rest of this otherwise unbuilt-on area of the city centre.
From 24 September to 29 October 2006, Leonhardi Culture Projects will be presenting, under the title 'Indefinite Rituals', works by Florian Agalliu, Alban Muja, Driton Hajredini, Ilirios, Zake Prelvukaj, Adrian Williams, and Sislej Xhafa (Live debate).
These young artists have been profoundly affected by the experience of being driven out and forced to flee their homes. They deal with this experience in their works. One example of this is Alban Muja, who has drawn up a plan for a Museum for Contemporary History in his divided hometown because he is no longer allowed to visit the place where he lived as a child. Driton Hajredini lives in Germany, but he paints blackbirds on suitcases because Kosovo means 'field of blackbirds'. His picture 'The guardians' makes this clear in a striking way with its depiction of two birds sitting on a suitcase, ready to depart. Adrian Williams has set up a Contemporary Arts Library in Prishtina together with Shannon Bool, and
has now developed a collection of photographs in order to promote this project. Zake Prelvukaj is not only an artist who portrays the ambivalent attitude to democracy in Kosovo in her pictures and through her own body; she also teaches in the Faculty of Arts in Pristina, and will present recent works by her students.
The indeterminacy of this toponym Kosovo, belonging to the blackbirds (and was it not the defeated Serbs who left the notorious battlefield as blackbirds) determines the ability of the Kosovo-Albanian art and culture scene to express itself.Indeterminacy can be seen in the works of these artists, just as the status of Kosovo is indeterminate. This absence of statehood affects forms of cultural expression in Kosovo, and is captured in a precise way in the artworks.
During the opening of the exhibition on 24 September, Sislej Xhafa will lead a live debate with the artists exhibiting their works. This debate will start with a radioshow on the 8 September on Radio x in Frankfurt. Beqe Cufaj will give an introductory lecture on his most recent visit to Prishtina, entitled ?What does it mean to live two doors down from the president Cufajs work has become known to a German audience through his books Kosova Rr and Der Glanz der Fremde. Adrian Williams will introduce the work of the Contemporary Arts Library.

Leonhardi Culture Projects
Leonhardi Culture Projects organizes exhibitions which provide the public with insights into current positions being taken by artists from crisis regions, and tries by means of cultural exchange to stimulate democratization processes in countries such as Afghanistan, Kosovo, and Iran. We want to contribute to an improved understanding of these societies rather than just to look at them from the perspective of conflicts and crises. For this reason, we speak of countries like Afghanistan and Kosovo as 'wounded societies'. The exhibitions also give vistors an opportunity to familiarize themselves with positions currently being taken in
contemporary art. In the two selected cases of Afghanistan and Kosovo, these are as different as they could possibly be.
