Sažetak
In this article, I shall discuss some examples of the sacralization of the landscape in contemporary art practices on the local scene. The introduction will mention the project Arrival in the Heritage (2007-2014) of multimedia artist Josip Zanki, which was based on a review of the concept of space within contemporary art practices. As there is no coincidence in the art strategies that react to the reality, it is no coincidence that the exhibition Follies and Ruins: Between Incompleteness and the Imagination, realised in St. Donat’s, Zadar, 2014 was the last exhibition that closed the interdisciplinary project Back to Heritage ; the project was initiated in 2007 by the University of Zadar. The exhibition, as its curators pointed out, was based on the idea that the ruins were not only the remains of past civilizations, but also a kind of illusion of collective memory, an idealized version of the past. It is so, as remains can appear only as ruins, illusions of memories and acts of remembrance. Jan Assmann stated that memory needs places, as it has a tendency towards spatialization. In context of overall necro-politics, I want to refer to the connotation of madness, regarding the meaning of the French word "folie", where in the reality of ruthless corporatism, we are ever more surrounded not only by fake, but also by real ruins of the present (from the Middle East to Paris). Furthermore, I will interpret spatial drawings made by fire, called Ignisogrami, by multimedia artist Damir Stojnić from Rijeka, as well as his ritual performance arts using fire which he has been performing since 2004, in quarries of Istria, which the artist calls Atelier Fire I and II. Finally, I will interpret the project Golo Brdo Studio, which Vladimir Živković and Tomislav Brajnović launched in 2007. By architectonic symbolism and surreal space (the series of white buildings dominated by white stone and a fantastic building tower) of the listed residential and exhibition space artist Marčelo Brajnović achieved avant-garde concept Life = Art, by buildings listed in the area, known as the stone gomila (stone mounds form the Illyrian time, or tumuli, or how people here say the stone pile).
