Noel Molloy & Aodha Molloy, Ireland - "Post-Box"23rd International Multimedial Art Festival - IMAF 2021 Novi Sad - Odzaci youtu.be/meqokqPG40Y
International Multimedia Art Festival – IMAF is an annual event dedicated to performance art. International Festival of Multimedia Arts – IMAF has created a context in which different artists of various nationalities and age come together and, through their individual work, create a variety of research and suggestions on the medium of body and performance. As such, IMAF is not merely a festival, but a place where new ideas and conditions of performance, in the broader sense of art, become evolutionarily classified and researched. This makes it progressive and proactive, a space focused solely on developing new thoughts and ideas.More of the festival: imaf-festival.weebly.com/
To meet this year's 23rd International Multimedia Art Festival, at the beginning of the year, we had to take into account the current pandemic situation. Not knowing how the situation would catch us during the festival, we invited artists to send their videos of performances, realized in the first half of this year, to an open competition. From last year's experience, when we also successfully realized the online presentation of video works of authors around the world, we transferred many positive opportunities this year as well. From the video works and photos, sent for this year's online presentation, a multimedia exhibition called "The Voice of the Locked" will be set up. Participants in the online presentation and exhibition "Voice of the Locked" in the SULUV gallery in Novi Sad are 83 artists from 36 countries. The exhibition will be held from August 30th to September 4th, 2021. The presentation of video works online, on the YouTube channel of the IMAF festival, will be held from August 28th to September 5th, 2021.
Following the current situation and the abolition of restrictive measures at the end of spring, in the region and beyond, we decided to invite interested artists for live performances. Believing that the artists will perform live, face to face with the audience, they do not have an adequate alternative. 14 artists from Italy, Czech Republic, USA, United Kingdom, Spain, Hungary, Ukraine, Australia/Germany and Serbia were invited for the live performance program. The live performance program will be held in the following dates: August 28th on the square in front of the Sports Center Odzaci, September 3rd and 4th in the SULUV gallery in Novi Sad and on September 5th in the abandoned Motel "Sumice" in Odzaci.
