Skate market is not so new of a concept for Vladimir as it is an extended version of what we had in previous editions of the festival. This year we have Palomino from the UK, Dumb skateboards from Italy, Absurd skateboards from Russia, Simple skateboards from Rijeka, Low Life from Zagreb, Marko Zubak from Rovinj and some new Vladimir goodies!

So if you are looking for some new t-shirts, hoodies, DVD’s, zines and more don’t miss out on this bundle of joy at the Brioni hotel in Fažana on Thursday 27th!

After the fact, before the deluge

Sara Parson Texas is an analog photographer and illustrator born in Paris and living in Berlin since 2011. Her on going project called After the fact, before the deluge was at first a mix in between a zine/blog where she would have all kind of photos, and it is going to be presented on Vladimir as an exhibition on Thursday 27th in the Brioni hotel in Fažana.

This project is my own “in between” space i would say. All this moment when you are with so many peoples/friends on trip and nothing crazy happens but just normal life and suddenly you focus and notice all this little nothing. Suddenly the photo is not only a portrait/a gesture or so but just an emotion that you know you can only capture at this very second.

Teddie is the first full-length Serious Adult video, filmed over the last 10 months, loosely based around trips to Marseille and Zaragoza, with some South London crust thrown in for good measure! Featuring full parts from Tom Delion, Jack Soden Sebastian Lemus and Darwin Cranium, alongside appearances from the wider GCSA squadron.

The screening of George Toland’s video is set at the Brioni hotel in Fažana on Thursday 27th.

Peter Fettich photo exhibition

On Thursday 27th we are hosting a great photo exhibition at Kasarna in Fažana. Peter Fettich from Ljubljana, Slovenia, has captured some of the amazing moments at Vertbrant mini ramp contest and Vladimir film festival, intermittently, since 2013.

I have been heavily immersed in skate/snowboard culture since the mid 90s. As most information during the 90s was through magazines and movies, I developed an interest in photography towards the end of the millennium. For the past 7 years my main focus in photography has been traditional analog black and white darkroom imagery.

If you had a chance to try some of the recipes by Tibor Rep than you know why he is coming again this year to cook for us on Friday 28th. If you didn’t try it, well, now it’s your chance. Don’t miss out on it and if you are lucky you will get your hands on his new foodzine!

I’m a food person and I craft thoughtful and inspired dishes for you – the people who enjoy food. When you eat my food you just might wanna do it again. That’s how the name REPeat was born.

Mustapha

A few short films by Tom Wilk will be presented on Friday 28th in Fažana followed by a photo exhibition. We asked Tom for a few words about him and his project:

Keeping it moving since 1981. Born in Poland, raised in Canada, and currently residing in London UK, when not exploring new countries and continents. Skateboarding, travel, and having fun is the motto! Got hooked on skateboarding in 1996 and can’t stop, won’t stop! Grew up skating the streets of Windsor Ontario, Detroit, and Toronto – and trapped in that Golden Era Forever! Skateboarding is my Fountain Of Youth and Universal Language!!! Never take yourself too serious… and stay positive! Fuck The Rat Race!

These short films called “Mustapha” are just a random idea that I came up with while visiting various countries, most of it was filmed hungover and drunk! Honestly, I really just wanted to showcase the city/country a little bit while have a good laugh and creating some memorable content with friends, in between the tricks and beers! Hopefully these (the short films) will make a great addition to Vladimir Film Festival, especially as little fillers videos between the longer screenings, and to get peeps laughing.
