Don't miss the opportunity to delve into the intriguing world of art and contemplation. Visit the exhibition "Echoes of Family Relations 2024" and enrich your perspective on the world around you.

The cultural center KC Dorćol Gallery invites you to a unique exhibition titled "Echoes of Family Relations 2024". Here, you will immerse yourself in the world of human connections and relationships, discovering new facets of your inner world. As you explore this inner landscape, you will not only feel your emotions and experiences but also uncover the hidden corners of your own personality, fostering personal growth and self-development. This art project was created by Julia Shlenskaya, a contemporary artist and art producer, who has been organizing exhibitions for many years. Her art installations, including large-scale works, have gained recognition at exhibitions in Russia and Serbia.

The exhibition features works by 24 artists from Serbia, Montenegro, Russia, Israel, and UAE. Each piece represents an image, symbol, or echo of someone's experiences, forming an integral part of the "collective portrait" that reveals numerous dimensions and aspects of family life and interpersonal relationships.

Some of the works in the exhibition invite viewers to contemplate how historical events and political changes influence family relationships and personal identities. These artworks offer a profound analysis of the interconnections between the past and the present, prompting reflections on how our heritage shapes our lives and influences our behavior and perspectives on the world.

Other works transport us into memories of home, childhood, and loved ones, creating a warm atmosphere of nostalgia and tranquility. They reproduce moments filled with familial warmth and carefreeness, allowing us to relive the joy and warmth that come from memories of our loved ones and cherished places.

There are also works that offer a deep analysis of our inner world and our relationships with ourselves and others. They provoke internal dialogues and reflections, enabling us to better understand ourselves, our feelings, and emotions. These works serve as mirrors of our internal states, helping us find inner harmony and understanding.

We invite you to join us on our journey into the world of family connections and discover new dimensions of the human soul. This is not just an "exhibition of conceptual art" — it is an opportunity to contemplate, rethink, and open up to new internal and external perspectives presented by our talented artists!
