Thank you for your attention!

Video screening from DIVA Station archive
Short Film Night: Wednesday, 21 December 2016, 23pm
Slovenian Cinematheque, Miklošičeva 28, Ljubljana

A selection of works from DIVA station, prepared by Neža Grum and Luka Polutnik titled Thank you for your attention!.

In today’s time we face an abundance of information, which are outlining our daily routines and often divert out attention. The curated video programme explores attention deficiency on two levels. The selection of six video works tries to catch the viewers’ attention and at the same time test it and look for reasons for its absence. It tackles it with humour, sexuality, meditation and spirituality, provocation, repetitivity and materiality.

Selected works: Oliver Marčeta: Jesus von New Orleans, 1994, Jasna Hribernik: House of Contrasts, 1998, Ana Sluga: Still Life I/, 2011, Mark Požlep: Soft machine, 2010, Nataša Prosenc Stearns: Betonski človek (The Concrete Man), 1995, Ana Čigon: OHOHO, 2015
