Vertrekkend vanuit de persoonlijke perspectieven en verhalen van de Bosnische lokale gemeenschap in Nederland, verkent de groep de ideologie\u00ebn van tolerantie en openheid, zoals ooit geformuleerd door de Nederlandse filosoof Desiderius Erasmus, in relatie tot de toenemende polarisatie en intolerantie richting bepaalde religies en etnische minderheidsgroepen. Is Erasmus slechts een symbool van zijn geboortestad Rotterdam, of is zijn ideologie nog steeds actueel? En wat kunnen we leren van groepen mensen die verwoestende gevolgen hebben ondervonden van polarisatie in hun persoonlijke leven, zoals de vluchtelingen uit post-Joegoslavische landen? Deze urgente voorstelling stemt je tot nadenken waarbij persoonlijke perspectieven van de deelnemers en filosofie samensmelten om een van de belangrijkste kwesties van deze tijd aan te pakken: polarisatie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zlatko Pakovi\u0107 maakt theatervoorstellingen in Bosni\u00eb-Herzegovina, Bulgarije, Cyprus, Kroati\u00eb, Kosovo, Noord-Macedoni\u00eb, Montenegro en in Servi\u00eb, en voert deze voornamelijk buiten de institutionele theaters op. Bij het grote publiek in de Balkan staat hij bekend om zijn politieke voorstellingen waarin hij felle kritiek levert op de hedendaagse overheden van de post-Joegoslavische landen. Zijn werk reageert en reflecteert op de politieke context van voormalig Joegoslavi\u00eb, met name kwesties met betrekking tot censuur, staatscontrole en opgedrongen verhalen rondom dader\/slachtofferschap die tijdens deze conflicten ontstonden en nu nog steeds bestaan. Zijn kritische, activistische houding wordt daarom bepaald niet warm onthaald door de politieke machthebbers. Met zijn werk waarschuwt hij nieuwe generaties om niet dezelfde fouten te maken als in het verleden en toont hij hoe de nieuwe landen na het uiteenvallen van Joegoslavi\u00eb nog steeds de sporen van de oorlogen dragen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>De voorstelling WHAT&#8217;S ERASMUS TO US, OR WE TO ERASMUS? is het resultaat van een artist in residency van de Servische theaterregisseur en schrijver Zlatko Pakovi\u0107 met de lokale Bosnische diaspora in Nederland.

Theatre, for him, is an inextricable whole of the aesthetic and the social act. Over the course of his career, Zlatko has directed many influential plays for which he has gained recognition, such as the International Ibsen Scholarship 2014, the most prestigious theatre project award in Europe.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>His work responds to and reflects upon the political contexts of former Yugoslavia, especially issues concerning censorship, state control, and imposed narratives of the victim\/perpetrator divide during, and long after these conflicts. His critical, activistic stance, has not been warmly embraced by those that hold political power.\u00a0<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This is because, though the Balkan Wars took place more than 25 years ago, Pakovic\u2019s work highlights that the new countries that emerged from the collapse still bear the traces of the wars. Mass graves, missing persons, unresolved grief, landmine fields and increasing poverty have suspended everyday normality in many of these places. Furthermore, the Serbian-dominated Republika Srpska in Bosnia, as well as the state of Serbia itself, continue to deny the 1995 genocide in Srebrenica. Through his plays and poetic interventions, Zlatko not only seeks to challenge these sustained viewpoints by bringing attention and acknowledgement to these issues, touching on feelings of irrecoverable grief felt by so many, but he also endeavours to inspire feelings of hope and possibility, combined with warnings for future generations within these contexts and beyond.\u00a0<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->","post_title":"Zlatko Pakovi\u0107","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"zlatko-pakovic","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-02-07 10:15:55","post_modified_gmt":"2025-02-07 09:15:55","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/?post_type=maker&#038;p=4117","menu_order":0,"post_type":"maker","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"makers_involved":[4117],"edition":406,"also_interesting":[690,689]},"programmes":{"2023040120230401":{"19:00:0020:00:00":[{"id":1451,"title":"\"What are We to Erasmus and What is Erasmus to Us\"","type":"productions","production_count":1,"start_date":"20230401","date":[{"day_name":"za","day":"01","month":"april","month_abbrev":"apr","year":"2023","timestamp":"2023-04-01"}],"time":"19:00 - 20:00"}]}},"days":["20230401"],"makers":{"4117":"Zlatko Pakovi\u0107"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions\/655","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/production"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions\/655\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1250,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions\/655\/revisions\/1250"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1100"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=655"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=655"},{"taxonomy":"edition","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/editions?post=655"},{"taxonomy":"festival_production_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/festival_production_types?post=655"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
