Do you know who Mitar Suboti\u0107 Suba<\/strong> was? For the people of Novi Sad, this is equally a matter of local patriotism and general culture. However, if you may not have heard of him until now, do not worry. An ideal opportunity to get to know the legendary Suba’s<\/strong> creative life in more detail awaits you soon within the Other? Europe<\/strong><\/em> programme arch of the European Capital of Culture<\/a>.

The interactive installation Suba Room<\/strong><\/em> will take place in the District in the Menza<\/strong> facility, and we have prepared \u2018notes\u2019 for you so that you can follow the programme with full attention.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Suba’s Musical Beginnings<\/h2>\n

Mitar Suboti\u0107 Suba<\/strong> was born in 1961 in Novi Sad. He was educated in his town and determined his direction towards music very early. Here he finished junior and high school of music, and then studied at the Academy of Arts<\/em>, the department of composition and orchestration. He specialized during his studies<\/strong>, becoming interested in electronic music and creating the first recordings that combined electronics with synthesizers.<\/p>\n

After graduation, in search of further education in his field of interest, Suba moved to Belgrade<\/strong>. At that time, Paul Pignon<\/strong>, a British saxophonist, was leading an electronic music course at Radio Belgrade, which was an ideal opportunity for Suba to improve and progress. He shared his creativity with the audience in an unusual way. Namely, he sent synthesizer recordings under the pseudonym Rex Ilusivi<\/em><\/strong>i (Lat. king of illusions) every week to Dragan Gojkovi\u0107<\/strong>, the author of the shows Novi Vidici<\/em> and Yu Pop Scena shows on Radio Novi Sad<\/em>. A whole year passed, and neither Gojkovi\u0107 nor his audience knew who was delighting them with these unusual recordings. After some time, Suboti\u0107 revealed his identity<\/strong> and many consider this the beginning of his career. He started with performances in Belgrade, Novi Sad, Zagreb, Ljubljana, Sarajevo and Subotica. Suba stood out as a composer, arranger and instrumentalist, but he was also distinguished by his collaborations with established musicians, such as Marina Perazi\u0107<\/strong> and Milan Mladenovi\u0107<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Suba Lived Music<\/h2>\n

In addition to collaborations with the bands Oktobar 1864, La Strada, Haustor<\/em> and Heroina<\/em>, Suba<\/strong> created music for television and theatre. For his work In the Mooncage<\/em>, he received a UNESCO<\/em> prize for the promotion of culture, as well as a scholarship for a three-month study of Afro-Brazilian rhythms in Brazil. That is where the story of Suba moves to another continent.<\/p>\n

Career in Brazil<\/h2>\n

Finding himself in Brazil, he continued to create. He composed, recorded music, but also produced and collaborated with great Brazilian musicians. Bebel Gilberto<\/strong> and Jo\u00e3o Parahyba<\/strong> are just some of them. Brazil welcomed the Yugoslav artist with wide open arms<\/strong>, and gave him something new. He combined traditional Brazilian rhythms with electronic music. Not only Brazil liked this. He released the album S\u00e3o Paulo Confessions<\/strong><\/em> in 1999 in Brazil, Europe, USA and Japan. But as life sometimes, unfortunately, writes dramas, on the day of the promotion of the album in Sao Paolo, a fire broke out in the studio, and Suboti\u0107, in an attempt to save the recordings, lost his life.<\/p>\n

Suba’s Visionary Spirit Is Felt Even Today<\/h2>\n

Artists live longer thanks to what they leave behind. Apart from music, Suba also left a legacy of togetherness<\/strong>, creativity and dedication to art. Namely, after his death, Brazilian artists with whom he successfully collaborated founded the Suba Institute<\/em><\/strong>; his hometown dedicated Suba\u2019s Plateau in Liman<\/a> and a stage to him at Exit festival. Novi Sad will preserve the memory of one of the most important local composers of contemporary music \u2013 for films, television, commercials, plays, radio, and electronic music \u2013 by setting up a sculpture dedicated to him, in Liman Park<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The sculpture dedicated to Mitar Suboti\u0107 Suba was conceived by Milan Kuli\u0107 from Belgrade<\/strong>, whose conceptual solution was chosen at the public call<\/a> launched by the Novi Sad \u2013 European Capital of Culture Foundation. This memorial, inspired by Suba’s creativity, the idea of spirituality and the duality of space and time, will be exhibited right on the Suba\u2019s Plateau. \u2018The movement and energy of music are woven into the static solid nature of the sculpture, and the final form is inspired by the simplicity and layered content of Mitar Suboti\u0107 Suba’s composition,\u2019 said author Milan Kuli\u0107<\/strong>. On the occasion of the installation of the sculpture, the architect of the Foundation, Du\u0161an Stevanovi\u0107<\/strong>, said that \u2018after the open-air gallery, the installation of the sculpture, or rather the memorial, in this part of Liman Park will finally enable the rounding of the entire form of the Suba\u2019s Plateau, as a recognizable city space dedicated to Mitar Suboti\u0107 Suba.\u2019<\/p>\n

Therefore, do not miss the opportunity to get acquainted with Suba’s ideas and values during the Suba Room<\/a> exhibition. In addition to this, as pianist and Suba’s friend Branka Parli\u0107<\/strong> concluded in the interview for Visit Novi Sad<\/a>, \u2018the inclusion of the SUBA:NOVI SAD project in the European Capital of Culture<\/em> programme emphasizes Suba’s international career, intercultural character of his art, and it is certainly an opportunity to preserve various formats of artifacts and archival material in a space of legacy character.\u2019 Communication between artist and audience never stops. See for yourself on 20 November.<\/p>\n
