Talk and exhibition

On Saturday, 20 July, the writer Balša Brković gave a talk at the Polimski Museum, “New Art and the Young”: what new art is, how it relates to language, who creates a new reality and why young people matter in it. The conversation went on with the audience.

The museum gallery showed drawings by the young artists Anja Radulović and Veljko Kopitović. Balša Brković opened the exhibition, saying that the festival holds to the idea that what is artistically true must also be artistically beautiful.

Nocturno

On the same day the Montenegro Youth Orchestra gave the premiere of Milivoje Pićurić’s Nocturno for solo violin, orchestra and electronics, with Igor Pejović as soloist. The solo violin carries the main idea of the piece, surrounded by the shifting colours of the orchestra and electronics.

The orchestra played Nocturno again at Zetski dom in Cetinje in February 2020.
