Gojkovic opens Serbia Pavilion at Venice Biennale
Belgrade / Venice,
21 May 2021
Gojkovic pointed out that the exhibition "The Eighth Kilometre" prepared by the team of authors "Modern in Belgrade" convincingly testifies to the fact that Serbia has once again shown that with creativity and imagination it can make a valuable contribution in facing global issues of our time.
She assessed that the exhibition of the team, which consists of eight young and talented architects, responds in a multi-layered way to this year's Biennale slogan: "How will we live together?", stating that the answer to that question, through the artistic concept of the exhibition, represents a step forward into the space of the industrial city of Bor, which metaphorically offers a hint of future solutions for urban development.
Gojkovic recalled that our country has been performing independently at the Biennale of Architecture since 2006 and that this is one of the most important cultural events for Serbia at the international level.
Exhibition Commissioner Slobodan Jovic said that the theme of the Biennale "How will we live together?" by Hashim Sarkis, curator of the 17th International Biennial of Architecture, has received new meanings and new readings since 2019, when it was set up, and that it pointed to the urgent need for new reflections on the built environment.
The team "Modern in Belgrade" consists of architects: Iva Bekic, Irena Gajic, Dalia Dukanac, Stefan Djordjevic, Snezana Zlatkovic, Mirjana Jesic, Hristina Stojanovic and Petar Cigic.
