Bitef

lerovog poverenja, a kojeg se danas u Sloveniji niko ne seća. Putem spektakularnog rituala, koji je uverljiva rekonstrukcija nacističkih mitinga iz tridesetih godina prpšlog veka, ali ujedno i stilizpvano i ironično poigravanje tom ikonografijom u duhu pokreta Neue Slowenische Kunst iz osamdesetih, Živadinov vrši ideološki nedvosmisleni egzorcizam: temeljno nas čisti od duha Globočnika, kako on danas ne bi oživeo. S obzirom na to dvostruko ukazivanje na prošlost - kako na doba nacizma, tako i na umetnički pokret NSK, koji je i deo istorije Bitefa - ovaj se projekat pokazao kao idealan za Prolog festivala.

O PREDSTAVI

Pozorišna predstava Odilo. Zatamnjenje. Oratorijum. premijerno je prikazana u ova nesigurna vremena, neposredno pred moguće izbijanje novog svetskog sukoba. Geostrateški i geopolitički interesi, novi uspon nacionalizma i rasizma. Sa sličnom su situacijom bili suočeni naši pred pred početak Drugog svetskog rata I tokom njega. Odilo Globočnik predstavlja mračnu figuru slovenačke istorije. On je Slovenac koji je bio u samom vrhu hijerarhije nemačkog nacističkog ustrojstva. To je Slovenac koji se obratio masi na jednom od zloglasnih nirnberških nacističkih skupova. Slovenac koji je sproveo Operaciju Rajnhard i tako uzrokovao smrt miliona ljudi, Slovenac koji je izmislio koncentracione logore. Slovenac koji je bio na čelu koncentracionog logora „Rižarna”. Ova koprodukcija Mladinskog

one of Hitler's closest confidants, a man completely forgotten in Slovenia today. Through a spectacular ritual, which is a plausible reconstruction of Nazi political rallies from the 30's but which is also a stylized and ironical play with that iconography in the spirit of the Neue Slowenische Kunst movement from the 80’s, Živadinov Is performing an ideologically unequivocal exorcism. He is thoroughly cleansing us of the Globočnik's spirit to prevent it from rising back again. Since it refers to the past in two ways - to the times of Nazism and to the artistic movement NSK, which has its place in the history of Bitef - this project proves to be ideal for the Prologue Day.

ABOUT THE PRODUCTION

Theatre performance Odilo. Obscuration. Oratorio , premiered in the insecure time just before the potential outbreak of a new world clash. Geostrategic and geopolitical interests, a new rising of nationalisms and racisms, news scarily similar to those our ancestors faced before and during World War 11. Odilo Globočnik is a dark image of the Slovenian history. He is that Slovenian who occupied the highest ranks in the hierarchy of the German Nazi system. The Slovenian who addressed the crowd at one of the notorious Nuremberg Nazi party rallies. The Slovenian who executed operation Reinhard and was responsible for the death of millions. The Slovenian who invented the extermination concentration camp. The Slovenian who managed Risiera concentration camp. The coproduction of Mladinsko and Kino Šiška, based on the textual masses by Peter Mlakar and Dragan Živadinov, is fully conscious of the dangers of the time in which we live, as we are witnessing a new rise of nationalism and racism. The key elements of the project are thus a clear anti-Nazi stand, the killing of Globočnik's name, and obstructing of the resurrection of his acts. The performance methodologically refuses to understand his acts and National Socialism as something normal. Even more, by using the ritual of killing his name, it wants to once and for all be done with Odilo Globočnik, as well as the Nazism and fascism, and thereby prevent its rise and return. Within this frame of ritual killing, the performance stages an awareness of personalised evil while refusing to enter the theatre identification model. National Socialism is the greatest realism in the history of mankind!
