The brilliant playwright, Adrienne Kennedy,

3000
Brilijantna dramaturginja, Adrijen Kenedi,
00:19
wrote a volume called
1
19260
2000
je napisala delo
00:21
"People Who Led to My Plays."
2
21260
2000
"Ljudi koji su doveli do mojih predstava".
00:23
And if I were to write a volume,
3
23260
2000
Ako bih ja napisala delo,
00:25
it would be called,
4
25260
2000
zvalo bi se:
00:27
"Artists Who Have Led My Exhibitions"
5
27260
2000
"Umetnici koji su doveli do mojih izložbi"
00:29
because my work,
6
29260
2000
jer je moj rad,
00:31
in understanding art and in understanding culture,
7
31260
3000
kroz razumevanje umetnosti i kulture,
00:34
has come by following artists,
8
34260
3000
proizašao tako što sam ja pratila umetnike
00:37
by looking at what artists mean
9
37260
3000
uzimajući u obzir šta to znači biti umetnik,
00:40
and what they do and who they are.
10
40260
2000
šta oni rade i ko su oni.

J.J. from "Good Times,"

Dž.Dž. iz serije "Dobra vremena",
00:45
(Applause)
12
45260
3000
(Aplauz)
00:48
significant to many people of course
13
48260
2000
drugim ljudima poznat
00:50
because of "Dy-no-mite,"
14
50260
2000
po svojoj frazi "dinamit",
00:52
but perhaps more significant
15
52260
2000
ali možda značajniji
00:54
as the first, really, black artist
16
54260
3000
kao prvi, pravi crni umetnik
00:57
on primetime TV.
17
57260
2000
u udarnom terminu na TV-u.
01:00
Jean-Michel Basquiat,
18
60260
2000
Žan-Mišel Baskijat,
01:02
important to me because [he was]
19
62260
2000
meni bitan jer je bio
01:04
the first black artist in real time
20
64260
3000
prvi crni umetnik u stvarnom životu
01:07
that showed me the possibility of
21
67260
2000
koji mi je pokazao mogućnosti onoga
01:09
who and what I was about to enter into.
22
69260
3000
u šta sam tada zakoračila.
01:12
My overall project is about art --
23
72260
3000
Moj ceo projekat je o umetnosti,
01:15
specifically, about black artists --
24
75260
2000
preciznije o crnim umetnicima,
01:17
very generally
25
77260
2000
a generalno
01:19
about the way in which art
26
79260
2000
o načinu na koji umetnost
01:21
can change the way we think
27
81260
2000
može da promeni naše razmišljanje
01:23
about culture and ourselves.
28
83260
3000
o kulturi i nama samima.
01:26
My interest is in artists
29
86260
2000
Mene zanimaju umetnici
01:28
who understand and rewrite history,
30
88260
3000
koji razumeju i ponovo oblikuju istoriju,
01:31
who think about themselves
31
91260
2000
koji razmišljaju o sebi
01:33
within the narrative
32
93260
2000
u okviru diskursa
01:35
of the larger world of art,
33
95260
2000
koji je veći od sveta umetnosti,
01:37
but who have created new places
34
97260
2000
ali koji su stvorili i nova mesta
01:39
for us to see and understand.
35
99260
3000
koja možemo da vidimo i razumemo.
01:42
I'm showing two artists here, Glenn Ligon and Kara Walker,
36
102260
3000
Prikazujem vam dva umetnika: Glena Ligona i Kerol Voker,
01:45
two of many who really form for me
37
105260
3000
dvoje od mnogih drugih koji za mene stvarno formiraju
01:48
the essential questions that I wanted to bring
38
108260
3000
suštinska pitanja koja sam ja, kao kustos,
01:51
as a curator to the world.
39
111260
2000
htela da stavim u prvi plan.
01:53
I was interested in the idea
40
113260
3000
Mene je zanimala ideja
01:56
of why and how
41
116260
2000
toga kako i zašto
01:58
I could create a new story,
42
118260
3000
bih mogla da stvorim novu priču,
02:01
a new narrative in art history
43
121260
2000
novi narativ u istoriji umetnosti
02:03
and a new narrative in the world.
44
123260
2000
i novi narativ u svetu.
02:05
And to do this, I knew
45
125260
2000
Kako bih to uradila, znala sam
02:07
that I had to see the way in which artists work,
46
127260
3000
da sam morala da vidim kako umetnici rade,
02:10
understand the artist's studio
47
130260
2000
shvatim studio umetnika
02:12
as a laboratory,
48
132260
2000
kao laboratoriju,
02:14
imagine, then,
49
134260
2000
i zamislim
02:16
reinventing the museum as a think tank
50
136260
3000
muzej kao ekspertnu instituciju,
02:19
and looking at the exhibition
51
139260
3000
a izložbe
02:22
as the ultimate white paper -- asking questions,
52
142260
3000
kao beli papir, postavljanjem pitanja
02:25
providing the space
53
145260
2000
i stvaranjem prostora
02:27
to look and to think about answers.
54
147260
3000
kako bi se pronašli odgovori.
02:30
In 1994,
55
150260
2000
Godine 1994.
02:32
when I was a curator at the Whitney Museum,
56
152260
2000
kada sam bila kustos u muzeju Vitni,
02:34
I made an exhibition called Black Male.
57
154260
2000
napravila sam izložbu "Crni muškarac".
02:36
It looked at the intersection
58
156260
2000
Obrađivala je ukrštanje
02:38
of race and gender
59
158260
2000
rase i pola
02:40
in contemporary American art.
60
160260
2000
u savremenoj američkoj umetnosti.
02:42
It sought to express
61
162260
2000
Težila je da izrazi
02:44
the ways in which art
62
164260
2000
način na koji umetnost
02:46
could provide a space for dialogue --
63
166260
2000
može da stvori prostor za dijalog -
02:48
complicated dialogue,
64
168260
2000
komplikovan dijalog,
02:50
dialogue with many, many points of entry --
65
170260
3000
dijalog sa mnogo tačaka gledišta -
02:53
and how the museum could be the space
66
173260
2000
i kako muzej može da bude prostor
02:55
for this contest of ideas.
67
175260
2000
za borbu ovih ideja.
02:57
This exhibition included
68
177260
2000
Izložba je uključila
02:59
over 20 artists
69
179260
2000
preko 20 umetnika
03:01
of various ages and races,
70
181260
2000
razne dobi i rasa,
03:03
but all looking at black masculinity
71
183260
3000
ali se fokusirala na crnačku muškost
03:06
from a very particular point of view.
72
186260
3000
iz posebne perspektive.
03:12
What was significant about this exhibition
73
192260
3000
Ono što je bilo bitno u ovoj izložbi
03:15
is the way in which
74
195260
2000
je bio način na koji
03:17
it engaged me in my role
75
197260
3000
me je ona angažovala u ulozi
03:20
as a curator, as a catalyst,
76
200260
2000
kustosa i pokretača
03:22
for this dialogue.
77
202260
2000
ovog dijaloga.
03:24
One of the things that happened
78
204260
2000
Ono što je bilo veoma upečatljivo
03:26
very distinctly in the course of this exhibition
79
206260
2000
u toku ove izložbe
03:28
is I was confronted with the idea
80
208260
2000
je činjenica da sam se sučelila sa idejom
03:30
of how powerful images can be
81
210260
2000
koliko jake slike mogu da budu
03:32
in people's understanding of themselves and each other.
82
212260
3000
u ljudskom razumevanju sebe i drugih.
03:35
I'm showing you two works, one on the right by Leon Golub,
83
215260
3000
Ovo su dva rada. Sa desne strane je delo Leona Goluba,
03:38
one on the left by Robert Colescott.
84
218260
3000
a sa leve delo Roberta Kolskota.
03:41
And in the course of the exhibition --
85
221260
2000
U toku izložbe,
03:43
which was contentious, controversial
86
223260
2000
koja je bila sporna i kontroverzna,
03:45
and ultimately, for me,
87
225260
2000
i za mene je predstavljala
03:47
life-changing
88
227260
2000
životnu prekretnicu
03:49
in my sense of what art could be --
89
229260
2000
u mom poimanju onoga što bi umetnost mogla da bude,
03:51
a woman came up to me on the gallery floor
90
231260
3000
jedna žena mi je prišla u galeriji
03:54
to express her concern about the nature
91
234260
3000
kako bi izrazila zabrinutost oko toga
03:57
of how powerful images could be
92
237260
2000
kako jake neke slike mogu da budu
03:59
and how we understood each other.
93
239260
2000
i kako mi razumemo jedni druge.
04:01
And she pointed to the work on the left
94
241260
2000
Uperila je prstom na delo sa leve strane
04:03
to tell me how problematic this image was,
95
243260
2000
i rekla mi je kako je ova slika problematična
04:05
as it related, for her, to the idea of
96
245260
3000
jer je, po njoj, ona prikazivala
04:08
how black people had been represented.
97
248260
3000
kako su crnci bili predstavljani.
04:11
And she pointed to the image on the right
98
251260
2000
Onda je pokazala sliku sa desne strane
04:13
as an example, to me, of the kind of dignity
99
253260
3000
i istakla da je to primer dostojanstva
04:16
that needed to be portrayed
100
256260
2000
koje treba da se prenese
04:18
to work against those images in the media.
101
258260
2000
kako bi delovalo protiv slika iz medija.
04:20
She then assigned these works racial identities,
102
260260
3000
Onda je ovim slikama dodelila rasne identitete,
04:23
basically saying to me that the work on the right,
103
263260
2000
rekavši mi da je delo sa desne strane
04:25
clearly, was made by a black artist,
104
265260
2000
očigledno naslikao crni umetnik,
04:27
the work on the left, clearly, by a white artist,
105
267260
2000
a delo sa leve belac.
04:29
when, in effect,
106
269260
2000
Međutim, stvar
04:31
that was the opposite case:
107
271260
2000
je obrnuta:
04:33
Bob Colescott, African-American artist;
108
273260
2000
Bob Kolskot, afro-američki umetnik;
04:35
Leon Golub, a white artist.
109
275260
2000
Leon Golub, belac.
04:37
The point of that for me was
110
277260
2000
U tom prostoru i trenutku za mene je poenta
04:39
to say -- in that space, in that moment --
111
279260
3000
toga bila ta
04:42
that I really, more than anything,
112
282260
2000
da sam više od svega
04:44
wanted to understand
113
284260
2000
želela da shvatim
04:46
how images could work, how images did work,
114
286260
3000
kako slike mogu da funkcionišu i kako su zapravo funkcionisale
04:49
and how artists provided
115
289260
2000
i kako umetnici snabdevaju
04:51
a space bigger than one
116
291260
2000
prostor veći
04:53
that we could imagine in our day-to-day lives
117
293260
2000
od onog kog mi zamišljamo u svakodnevnom životu
04:55
to work through these images.
118
295260
3000
kako bismo interpretirali ove slike.
04:58
Fast-forward and I end up in Harlem;
119
298260
3000
Motamo film unapred i sada sam u Harlemu,
05:01
home for many of black America,
120
301260
3000
domu mnogih Afro-amerikanaca,
05:04
very much the psychic heart
121
304260
3000
u takoreći, vidovitom srcu
05:07
of the black experience,
122
307260
2000
crnačkog iskustva.
05:09
really the place where the Harlem Renaissance existed.
123
309260
3000
Ovo je mesto gde je postojala harlemska renesansa.
05:13
Harlem now, sort of explaining
124
313260
3000
Harlem danas objašnjava
05:16
and thinking of itself in this part of the century,
125
316260
3000
i razmišlja o sebi u ovom delu veka,
05:19
looking both backwards and forwards ...
126
319260
2000
gledajući unazad i unapred...
05:21
I always say Harlem is an interesting community
127
321260
2000
Uvek kažem da je Harlem zanimljiva zajednica
05:23
because, unlike many other places,
128
323260
2000
jer, za razliku od drugih mesta,
05:25
it thinks of itself in the past, present
129
325260
2000
on razmišlja o sebi u prošlosti, sadašnjosti
05:27
and the future simultaneously;
130
327260
2000
i budućnosti u isto vreme.
05:29
no one speaks of it just in the now.
131
329260
2000
Niko o njemu ne priča isključivo u sadašnjosti
05:31
It's always what it was and what it can be.
132
331260
3000
nego u kontekstu šta je on bio i šta može biti.
05:34
And, in thinking about that,
133
334260
2000
Razmišljajući o tome,
05:36
then my second project, the second question I ask is:
134
336260
2000
moj drugi projekat, drugo pitanje je:
05:38
Can a museum
135
338260
2000
može li muzej da bude
05:40
be a catalyst in a community?
136
340260
2000
pokretač u jednoj zajednici?
05:42
Can a museum house artists
137
342260
2000
Može li muzej da pruži utočište umetnicima
05:44
and allow them to be change agents
138
344260
2000
i dozvoli im da budu agenti promene
05:46
as communities rethink themselves?
139
346260
3000
dok se zajednice menjaju?
05:49
This is Harlem, actually, on January 20th,
140
349260
3000
Ovo je Harlem 20. januara,
05:52
thinking about itself in a very wonderful way.
141
352260
3000
koji razmišlja o sebi na divan način.
05:56
So I work now at The Studio Museum in Harlem,
142
356260
2000
Sada radim u muzeju Studio u Harlemu
05:58
thinking about exhibitions there,
143
358260
2000
i razmišljam o izložbama tamo,
06:00
thinking about what it means to
144
360260
2000
razmišljam o tome šta znači
06:02
discover art's possibility.
145
362260
2000
otkriti potencijal u umetnosti.
06:04
Now, what does this mean to some of you?
146
364260
2000
Šta ovo znači za neke od vas?
06:06
In some cases, I know that many of you
147
366260
3000
U nekim slučajevima, znam da su mnogi od vas
06:09
are involved in cross-cultural dialogues,
148
369260
2000
uključeni u međukulturalne dijaloge,
06:11
you're involved in ideas of creativity and innovation.
149
371260
3000
bavite se idejama kreativnosti i inovacija.
06:14
Think about the place that artists can play in that --
150
374260
3000
Pomislite o ulozi koju umetnici mogu da igraju u tome -
06:17
that is the kind of incubation and advocacy
151
377260
3000
to je vrsta inkubacije i predstavništva
06:20
that I work towards, in working with young, black artists.
152
380260
3000
prema kojoj ja delujem, sarađujući sa mladim, crnim umetnicima.
06:23
Think about artists, not as content providers,
153
383260
2000
Mislite o umetnicima ne kao o proizvođačima sadržaja,
06:25
though they can be brilliant at that,
154
385260
2000
iako oni mogu da budu briljantni u tome,
06:27
but, again, as real catalysts.
155
387260
2000
nego kao o pravim pokretačima.
06:31
The Studio Museum was founded in the late 60s.
156
391260
3000
Muzej Studio je osnovan krajem '60-ih.
06:34
And I bring this up because it's important to locate
157
394260
3000
Ovo govorim jer mi je bitno da pozicioniram
06:37
this practice in history.
158
397260
2000
ovu praksu u istoriji.
06:39
To look at 1968,
159
399260
2000
Setite se 1968.
06:41
in the incredible historic moment that it is,
160
401260
2000
ovog neverovatnog istorijskog trenutka
06:43
and think of the arc that has happened since then,
161
403260
3000
i pomislite o zakrivini koja se desila od tada,
06:46
to think of the possibilities that we are all
162
406260
3000
pomislite o mogućnostima
06:49
privileged to stand in today
163
409260
2000
koje su nam dostupne danas
06:51
and imagine that this museum
164
411260
2000
i zamislite da je ovaj muzej
06:53
that came out of a moment of great protest
165
413260
2000
koji se rodio u trenutku velikog protesta
06:55
and one that was so much about
166
415260
2000
koji se puno ticao
06:57
examining the history and the legacy
167
417260
2000
ispitivanja istorije i nasleđa
06:59
of important African-American artists
168
419260
3000
bitnih afro-američkih umetnika
07:02
to the history of art in this country
169
422260
2000
za istoriju umetnosti ove zemlje,
07:04
like Jacob Lawrence, Norman Lewis,
170
424260
2000
poput Džejkoba Lorensa, Normana Luisa,
07:06
Romare Bearden.
171
426260
2000
Romera Birdena.
07:08
And then, of course,
172
428260
2000
Naravno, sada
07:10
to bring us to today.
173
430260
2000
dolazimo do sadašnjosti.
07:12
In 1975, Muhammad Ali
174
432260
2000
Godine 1975. Muhamed Ali
07:14
gave a lecture at Harvard University.
175
434260
2000
je održao predavanje na Harvardu.
07:16
After his lecture, a student got up and said to him,
176
436260
3000
Posle ovog predavanja, jedan student je ustao i rekao mu:
07:19
"Give us a poem."
177
439260
2000
"Date nam pesmu."
07:21
And Mohammed Ali said, "Me, we."
178
441260
2000
A Muhamed Ali je rekao: "Ja i mi."
07:23
A profound statement about the individual and the community.
179
443260
3000
Vrlo snažna poruka o individualnosti i zajednici,
07:26
The space in which now,
180
446260
2000
prostoru u kome sada
07:28
in my project of discovery, of thinking about artists,
181
448260
3000
u mom projektu otkrića promišljanja umetnika,
07:31
of trying to define
182
451260
2000
pokušaja da se definiše
07:33
what might be
183
453260
2000
šta bi to mogao biti
07:35
black art cultural movement of the 21st century.
184
455260
3000
crnački umetničko-kulturalni pokret 21. veka,
07:38
What that might mean
185
458260
2000
šta bi to moglo da znači
07:40
for cultural movements all over this moment,
186
460260
3000
za kulturne pokrete u ovom trenutku.
07:43
the "me, we" seems
187
463260
2000
"Ja i mi" ima
07:45
incredibly prescient
188
465260
2000
vidovita svojstva
07:47
totally important.
189
467260
2000
i itekako je bitno.
07:49
To this end,
190
469260
2000
Do sada,
07:51
the specific project that has made this possible for me
191
471260
3000
projekti koji su
07:54
is a series of exhibitions,
192
474260
2000
ovo omogućili za mene
07:56
all titled with an F --
193
476260
2000
je niz izložbi, naslovljene
07:58
Freestyle, Frequency and Flow --
194
478260
2000
Slobodan stil, Učestalost, Tok
08:00
which have set out to discover
195
480260
2000
koje teže da otkriju
08:02
and define
196
482260
2000
i definišu
08:04
the young, black artists working in this moment
197
484260
3000
mlade, crne umetnike u ovom trenutku
08:07
who I feel strongly
198
487260
2000
za koje smatram
08:09
will continue to work over the next many years.
199
489260
3000
da će nastaviti da rade još mnogo godina.
08:12
This series of exhibitions
200
492260
2000
Ovaj niz izložbi
08:14
was made specifically
201
494260
2000
je specifično napravljen
08:16
to try and question
202
496260
2000
kako bi se stavila pod upitnik
08:18
the idea of what it would mean
203
498260
2000
ideja toga šta bi značilo
08:20
now, at this point in history,
204
500260
2000
u ovoj tački u istoriji
08:22
to see art as a catalyst;
205
502260
3000
videti umetnost kao pokretač;
08:25
what it means now, at this point in history,
206
505260
2000
šta u ovoj tački u istoriji znači,
08:27
as we define and redefine culture,
207
507260
3000
dok mi pokušavamo da definišemo i redefinišemo kulturu,
08:30
black culture specifically in my case,
208
510260
2000
u mom slučaju crnačku kulturu,
08:32
but culture generally.
209
512260
2000
ali i kulturu u širem smislu.
08:34
I named this group of artists
210
514260
2000
Na osnovu ideje koju sam ja istakla
08:36
around an idea, which I put out there
211
516260
3000
nazvala sam ovu grupu umetnika
08:39
called post-black,
212
519260
2000
post-crnački umetnici.
08:41
really meant to define them
213
521260
2000
Htela sam time da definišem
08:43
as artists who came and start their work now,
214
523260
3000
umetnike koji su došli i počeli sa svojim radom sada
08:46
looking back at history but start in this moment, historically.
215
526260
3000
gledajući u prošlost, ali počevši u sadašnjosti.
08:50
It is really in this sense of discovery
216
530260
3000
Kroz ovaj osećaj otkrića
08:53
that I have a new set of questions that I'm asking.
217
533260
3000
imam novi niz pitanja.
08:56
This new set of questions is:
218
536260
2000
Taj novi niz je:
08:58
What does it mean, right now,
219
538260
2000
šta u ovom trenutku znači
09:00
to be African-American in America?
220
540260
3000
biti Afro-amerikanac u Americi?
09:03
What can artwork say about this?
221
543260
3000
Šta umetnička dela kažu o ovome?
09:06
Where can a museum exist
222
546260
3000
Gde muzej može da postoji
09:09
as the place for us all
223
549260
3000
kao mesto
gde svi možemo da vodimo ovaj razgovor?
09:12
to have this conversation?
224
552260
2000
09:14
Really, most exciting about this
225
554260
2000
Najuzbudljiviji deo u ovome
09:16
is thinking about the energy and the excitement
226
556260
3000
je energija i uzbuđenje
09:19
that young artists can bring.
227
559260
2000
koje mladi umetnici unose.
09:21
Their works for me are about,
228
561260
2000
Njihovi radovi, za mene,
09:23
not always just simply
229
563260
2000
nisu uvek samo
09:25
about the aesthetic innovation
230
565260
2000
o estetskoj inovaciji
09:27
that their minds imagine, that their visions create
231
567260
3000
koju njihovi umovi mogu da zamisle, i njihove vizije stvore
09:30
and put out there in the world,
232
570260
2000
i predstave svetu,
09:32
but more, perhaps, importantly,
233
572260
2000
nego je, još važnije, možda,
09:34
through the excitement of the community
234
574260
2000
uzbuđenje u zajednici
09:36
that they create as important voices
235
576260
3000
koje stvaraju kao važni glasovi
09:39
that would allow us right now to understand our situation,
236
579260
3000
koji bi nam dozvolili da razumemo našu situaciju sada
09:42
as well as in the future.
237
582260
2000
kao i u budućnosti.
09:44
I am continually amazed
238
584260
3000
Uvek me oduševi
09:47
by the way in which
239
587260
2000
način na koji
09:49
the subject of race
240
589260
2000
se tema rase
09:51
can take itself in many places
241
591260
3000
može naći na mnogim mestima
09:54
that we don't imagine it should be.
242
594260
2000
za koje ne možemo ni zamisliti.
09:56
I am always amazed
243
596260
3000
Uvek me oduševi
09:59
by the way in which artists are willing
244
599260
2000
način na koji su umetnici spremni
10:01
to do that in their work.
245
601260
2000
da to urade u svom radu.
10:03
It is why I look to art.
246
603260
2000
Zato ja gledam prema umetnosti.
10:05
It's why I ask questions of art.
247
605260
2000
Zato ja postavljam pitanja umetnosti.
10:07
It is why I make exhibitions.
248
607260
3000
Zato ja organizujem izložbe.
10:10
Now, this exhibition, as I said,
249
610260
2000
Kao što sam rekla, u ovoj izložbi je učestvovalo
10:12
40 young artists done over the course of eight years,
250
612260
3000
40 mladih umetnika u periodu od osam godina,
10:15
and for me it's about considering the implications.
251
615260
3000
i za mene se ona tiče implikacija;
10:19
It's considering the implications of
252
619260
2000
implikacija o tome
10:21
what this generation has to say to the rest of us.
253
621260
3000
šta ova generacija ima da kaže nama.
10:24
It's considering what it means for these artists
254
624260
3000
Tiče se toga šta ovim umetnicima znači
biti u svetu, jer njihovi radovi putuju,
10:27
to be both out in the world as their work travels,
255
627260
2000
10:29
but in their communities
256
629260
2000
ali i u zajednicama,
10:31
as people who are seeing and thinking
257
631260
3000
jer su oni ljudi koji gledaju i razmišljaju
10:34
about the issues that face us.
258
634260
3000
o stvarima sa kojima se i mi susrećemo.
10:37
It's also about thinking about
259
637260
2000
Ona se tiče razmišljanja
10:39
the creative spirit and nurturing it,
260
639260
2000
o kreativnom duhu i negovanju istog
10:41
and imagining, particularly in urban America,
261
641260
2000
i zamišljanju, pogotovo u urbanoj Americi,
10:43
about the nurturing of the spirit.
262
643260
3000
o negovanju tog duha.
10:46
Now, where, perhaps, does this end up right now?
263
646260
3000
Kuda sve ovo vodi?
10:49
For me, it is about re-imagining
264
649260
3000
Za mene, do novog zamišljanja
10:52
this cultural discourse in an international context.
265
652260
3000
kulturalnog diskursa u međunarodnom kontekstu.
10:55
So the last iteration of this project
266
655260
3000
Zadnja faza ovog projekta
10:58
has been called Flow,
267
658260
2000
se zove Tok,
11:00
with the idea now of creating
268
660260
2000
čija je ideja stvaranje
11:02
a real network
269
662260
2000
prave mreže
11:04
of artists around the world;
270
664260
2000
umetnika širom sveta
11:06
really looking, not so much
271
666260
2000
koji ne gledaju samo
11:08
from Harlem and out, but looking across,
272
668260
3000
iz Harlema ka napolje, nego gledaju kroz sve delove,
11:11
and Flow looked at artists all born on the continent of Africa.
273
671260
3000
a Tok gleda na umetnike koji su se rodili u Africi.
11:14
And as many of us think about that continent
274
674260
3000
Dok mnogi od nas razmišljaju o tom kontinentu
11:17
and think about what if means
275
677260
2000
i razmišljaju o tome šta nam on znači
11:19
to us all in the 21st century,
276
679260
2000
u 21. veku,
11:21
I have begun that looking
277
681260
2000
ja sam počela da gledam
11:23
through artists, through artworks,
278
683260
2000
kroz umetnike, kroz radove
11:25
and imagining what they can tell us about the future,
279
685260
3000
i zamišljam šta nam oni mogu reći o budućnosti,
11:28
what they tell us about our future,
280
688260
3000
šta nam govore o našoj budućnosti
11:31
and what they create in their sense of
281
691260
3000
i šta mogu da stvore u smislu
11:34
offering us this great possibility of watching
282
694260
3000
kroz poziv za ovu veliku mogućnost da gledamo
11:37
that continent emerge as part
283
697260
2000
kako ovaj kontinent izranja
11:39
of our bigger dialogue.
284
699260
2000
kao deo većeg dijaloga.
11:41
So, what do I discover
285
701260
2000
Šta ja otkrivam
11:43
when I look at artworks?
286
703260
2000
dok gledam dela?
11:45
What do I think about
287
705260
2000
O čemu razmišljam
11:47
when I think about art?
288
707260
2000
kada mislim o umetnosti?
11:49
I feel like the privilege I've had as a curator
289
709260
2000
Osećam da privilegija koju imam kao kustos
11:51
is not just the discovery of new works,
290
711260
3000
nije samo vezana za otkrivanje novih dela,
11:54
the discovery of exciting works.
291
714260
2000
otkrivanje uzbudljivih dela.
11:56
But, really, it has been
292
716260
2000
Više je vezana
11:58
what I've discovered about myself
293
718260
2000
za otkrivanje sebe same
12:00
and what I can offer
294
720260
2000
i onoga što mogu da ponudim
12:02
in the space of an exhibition,
295
722260
2000
u prostoru izložbi,
12:04
to talk about beauty, to talk about power,
296
724260
3000
kako bih pričala o lepoti, o moći,
12:07
to talk about ourselves,
297
727260
2000
kako bismo pričali o sebi
12:09
and to talk and speak to each other.
298
729260
3000
i jedni sa drugima.
12:12
That's what makes me get up every day
299
732260
3000
To me diže iz kreveta svaki dan
12:15
and want to think about
300
735260
2000
i želja da razmišljam
12:17
this generation of black artists and artists around the world.
301
737260
3000
o ovoj generaciji crnih umetnika i umetnika širom sveta.
12:20
Thank you. (Applause)
302
740260
2000
Hvala. (Aplauz)
