About the project
Project/? it is a multi-faceted artistic and research project focused on questioning and recycling facts and myths related to the car, the phenomenon of the Yugoslav automobile industry. The idea of the project is a retelling of the story of The Art Nouveau, which also became famous due to the fact that it was exported to the American market. A four-member crew of the almost three decades since the great business of the industry, with its primerkom Yuga began a journey of Kragujevca, while the site of the former factory, the car Crvena the Flag across continental Europe against England, and continued across the pacific to New York city.
The team understands the car as an expressive symbol and carrier of the identity of a specific time period, which forms the basis for the search for new stories that rethink the past through a modern perspective. The story of the show is dynamic and dramatic in its own way. In the United States, in a relatively short time from a sales hit, the car crashed into an object of ridicule and a parable of poor quality. On the other side of the world, in the area of the former Yugoslavia, the former peak of Yugoslav industry has become a symbol of the sentimental, socialist past and a catalyst for individual and collective memories. Today, everyone has their own view of a peculiar phenomenon that, regardless of the facts, provokes smiles and elicits comments.

V četrtek, 19. decembra, v Projektni sobi SCCA gostimo predstavitev umetniško-raziskovalnega Projekta Y? umetnice Neže Knez in umetnikov Danila Milovanovića, Tonija Poljanca in Luke Erdanija . Na predstavitvi in pogovoru se ne bomo pogovarjali le o dejstvih o legendarnem jugoslovanskem avtomobilu, temveč bomo izvedeli tudi, kako je svojega YUGA 55 Koral v Združene države Amerike izvozila ekipa Projekta Y?
O projektu
Projekt Y? je večplasten umetniško-raziskovalni projekt, ki se osredotoča na prevpraševanje in recikliranje dejstev in mitov, povezanih z avtomobilom Yugo, fenomenom jugoslovanske avtomobilske industrije. Ideja projekta je ponovitev zgodbe Yuga, ki je zaslovel tudi zaradi dejstva, da so ga izvažali na ameriški trg. Štiričlanska posadka se je slaba tri desetletja po velikem poslu jugoslovanske industrije s svojim primerkom Yuga odpravila na pot od Kragujevca, rojstnega mesta nekdanje tovarne avtomobilov Crvena Zastava, čez kontinentalno Evropo proti Angliji in naprej čez ocean do New Yorka.
Ekipa razume avtomobil kot izrazit simbol in nosilec identitete specifičnega časovnega obdobja, kar predstavlja osnovo za iskanje novih zgodb, ki skozi sodobno perspektivo premišljujejo preteklost. Zgodba Yuga je dinamična in po svoje dramatična. V ZDA je avtomobil v relativno kratkem času od prodajnega hita strmoglavil v predmet posmehovanja in prispodobo slabe kakovosti. Na drugem koncu sveta, na območju nekdanje Jugoslavije pa je nekdanji vrhunec jugoslovanske industrije postal simbol sentimentalne, socialistične preteklosti in katalizator individualnih in kolektivnih spominov. Danes ima vsak svoj pogled na svojevrsten fenomen, ki ne glede na dejstva izziva nasmehe in izvablja komentarje.
