SUMMARY:Stefana Savić – This Is Not the Place
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition of photographs and video works by Stefana Savić\, titled “This Is Not That Place”\, will open at the Gallery of the National Museum Kraljevo on Thursday\, December 11th\, 2025\, at 6:00 p.m.   \nStefana Savić was born in Kraljevo in 1979.  She completed her undergraduate studies in photography at the Academy of Arts in Belgrade in 2008\, and her interdisciplinary master’s studies in art and media theory at the University of Arts in Belgrade in 2010. In addition to nine solo exhibitions\, she has participated in more than forty group exhibitions and festivals in Serbia and abroad. She is a member of ULUS (Association of Fine Artists of Serbia).     \nOn the contemporary photography scene\, Stefana Savić stands out for her research-based approach and her constant questioning of the medium. Her photographs open new layers of everyday scenes\, encouraging us to reconsider preconceived notions of beauty\, modernity\, and perception.  \nStarting from the language of staged photography\, Savić has in previous projects reconstructed fragments of daily life\, treating ordinary moments as independent dramatic situations. Her figures\, absorbed in their own actions\, appear unaware of the observer’s presence\, yet their gazes suggest invisible hints – events unfolding beyond the frame\, in spaces only implied. In this poetic arrangement\, courtyards\, rooms\, and kitchens become stages\, while photographed individuals become unconscious participants in the drama of private life.   \nThe exhibition “This Is Not the Place” represents a step further – a search for what happens when memory collides with reality. At the moment when the artist returns to her hometown\, photography becomes a space of tension between what we remember and what we actually encounter. The private and the universal\, the personal and the collective intertwine in quiet\, minimalist compositions where the city\, rooms\, and empty spaces take on the role of witnesses to a discreet\, inner journey.   \nThe exhibition invites the viewer to confront their own layers of memory. As the gaze moves through empty spaces\, arranged interiors\, and glimpses of urban landscapes\, it reveals that the place we return to often does not coincide with the one we carry within ourselves. In this dissonance lies the poetics of the exhibition – a space where the image becomes a question\, and memory its silent interlocutor.

SUMMARY:Lojanik: Prehistoric Jasper and Opal Quarry
DESCRIPTION:Lojanik represents a unique paleobotanical site\, where fossil remains of silicified\, petrified wood have been discovered. It was declared a scientific research reserve in 1963. The site is located on the northern slopes of Stolovi\, on the right bank of the Ibar River\, near Mataruška Banja. Analysis of the silicified wood identified its origin as petrified conifers of the fir genus (Abies).    \nArchaeological research conducted between 2016 and 2022\, organized by the National Museum Kraljevo and the National Museum of Serbia\, confirmed the mining concept of raw material extraction at Lojanik. Excavations revealed surface mining structures in the form of shallow pits and trenches on both sides of the hill. The oldest archaeological material – jasper\, opal\, breccia\, and silicified wood—was dated to the Middle Paleolithic (Old Stone Age)\, around 228\,000 BC. In addition\, geological layer 2 contained clear evidence of fire use\, dated to around 90\,000 BCE. Fire was employed to remove surface rock and release ore\, direct proof of the skill and experience of populations likely linked to Neanderthals or archaic Homo sapiens.        \nThe significance of Lojanik as a quarry and mining site over the past 200\,000 years cannot be understood without reference to the nearby settlement of Crkvine in Konarevo\, only 2 km away. Crkvine is one of the earliest Early Neolithic settlements\, formed by the arrival of the first farmers on the left bank of the Ibar\, opposite Lojanik. They encountered available raw materials and Paleolithic artifacts\, which they initially used. Lojanik’s limnosilicates\, opals\, silicified wood\, and various breccias became the basic materials for toolmaking in Neolithic settlements in the area.    \nEven in modern times\, the rough\, dark parts of silicified branches were recognized as grinding material for metal blades. In the late 20th century\, “miner” Đorđe Matović and traders (the Vićanović brothers) ran a small-scale production of stone grindstones\, competitive with industrial products of the era. Remarkably\, Matović’s grindstones remain in use today\, still efficient and barely worn after half a century.     \nThe exhibition is authored by Vera Bogosavljević Petrović\, PhD\, museum advisor at the National Museum of Serbia and head of the research project. The exhibition will be formally opened by Dr Dušan Mihailović\, Professor at the Faculty of Philosophy\, University of Belgrade.
