O izložbi
(English below)
Galerija savremenih umjetnosti Manifesto i Austrijski kulturni forum Sarajevo sa zadovoljstvom najavljuju samostalnu izložbu renomiranog bosanskohercegovačkog umjetnika Mladena Miljanovića i austrijskog umjetnika Wolfganga Lehrnera pod nazivom “Posljednji veliki dim”. Otvorenje izložbe bit će upriličeno u petak 15. novembra s početkom u 19:00 sati.
Kao „posljednja riječ upozorenja“, izložba “Posljednji veliki dim” izaziva publiku distopijskim urbanim scenarijem, predstavljajući dva nova djela – Miljanovićevu instalaciju “Kamen šapuće dimne signale”, te Lehrnerovu višekanalnu video instalaciju “Grad kao klimatska mašina”. Postavljena u trenutku koji, nažalost, po ko zna koji put potvrdjuje važnost neodložnog suočavanja sa ekološkom i klimatskom krizom, izložba propituje odnos čovjeka i prirode.
Izložba “Posljednji veliki dim” nije crno proročanostvo, ali zasigurno jeste upozorenje i poziv na promjenu. Dim ne mora biti simptom propasti, ali mogao bi, ukoliko promjenu shvatimo kao imperativ, biti simptom preporoda prirode i humanosti.
Izložba je otvorena do 29. novembra, a svi zainteresovani mogu je posjetiti u ustaljenim terminima: od utorka do subote u periodu od 12:00 do 20:00 sati, te nedjeljom od 12:00 do 14:00 sati.

About the Exhibition
Gallery of Contemporary Arts Manifesto and the Austrian Cultural Forum Sarajevo are pleased to present a solo exhibition by acclaimed Bosnian artist Mladen Miljanović and Austrian artist Wolfgang Lehrner, titled The Last Great Smoke. The exhibition will open on Friday, November 15, at 7:00p.m.
As a “final warning,” The Last Great Smoke provokes with a dystopian urban scenario, featuring two new works: Miljanović’s installation, Stone Whispers Smoke Signals, and Lehrner’s multi-channel video piece, The City as a Climate Machine. Set against the backdrop of a time that, unfortunately, yet again highlights the urgency of addressing the ecological and climate crisis, the exhibition probes the delicate relationship between humanity and nature.
The Last Great Smoke is not a dark prophecy, but it certainly serves as a warning and a call to change. Smoke does not have to be a sign of destruction; if we embrace change as an imperative, it could instead be a sign of a rebirth for nature and humanity.
The exhibition will be open until November 29. All interested visitors can view it during regular hours: Tuesday to Saturday, 12:00p.m. to 8:00p.m., and Sunday from 12:00p.m. to 2:00p.m.
