Artopolis TV

Artopolis TV was a series of video portraits created for the platform’s launch campaign in 2020–2021. The challenge was to introduce Artopolis through content that also served the artists it was built for, giving their work and perspectives a place within the campaign.

The series brought together artists from different parts of Slovenia and varied backgrounds, including established professionals and people developing their practice outside a professional career. The editorial focus was on the quality of their work, the commitment behind it and their experience of finding a place in the art market. This reflected the platform’s inclusive approach and introduced audiences to the people whose work it sought to support.

I directed the portraits and conducted the interviews; Jan Dolar edited the videos. Jan Dolar and Iris Pokovec filmed Tajda Novšak’s portrait. Together, the portraits connected the launch campaign with Artopolis’s wider aim: greater visibility for artists and more stable conditions for working in art.
