Dear friends of Animateka! Uvod Pisanje uvodnika za festivalski katalog je najprijetnejše pisanje, Writing the intro for the festival catalogue is one of the most enjoyable Intro saj pomeni, da je festival pripravljen in oblikovalka čaka le še na parts of organizing a festival. It means that the festival is ready to go! pričujoče besede. Čeprav sem se odločil, da bom v uvodu izpostavil and that the catalogue designer is waiting only for these last few lines. predvsem bogato programsko vsebino četrte edicije Mednarodnega Even though I have decided to dedicate this editorial to the rich and festivala animiranega filma Animateka, pa si ne morem pomagati, da abundant programme of the 4th International Animated Film Festival ne bi sladkih besed zagrenil s priokusom gneva ob nerazumevanju Animateka, I cannot help but tarnish these sweet words with a taste kulturne politike državnih, mestnih in korporativnih sistemov. of indignation and inability to understand the cultural politics of Slove- nian national, local and corporate structures. Zahvaljujoč sofinanciranju iz programa MEDIA Evropske unije so nam tik pred zdajci prisluhnili na mestni in državni ravni ter nam pomagali Thanks to the financial support of the European Union’s MEDIA zapreti finančno konstrukcijo. Seveda ne smemo pristati na tak programme, local and national authorities finally changed their minds stihijski način izvajanja kulturne politike, saj se festival tako ne more and helped us fill the final gaps in the financial structure of the razvijati. Razumemo težave Mestne občine Ljubljana ob letošnjem festival. Of course, we cannot consent to such a thoughtless and un- finančnem primanjkljaju, nikakor pa ne razumemo pomanjkanja planned approach to implementing cultural politics, because it hinders vizije in načrtnega (ne)vlaganja v filmske festivale, ki v razvitem svetu the festival and makes it unable to grow and develop. We understand ne predstavljajo le kulturnega presežka, temveč tudi ekonomsko the problems and difficulties the City of Ljubljana is facing with this dodano vrednost, da sploh ne omenjamo pozitivne mednarodne year’s financial deficit, but we will never understand the lack of vision podobe mesta, v katerem se festival odvija. Animateka v Ljubljano and the systematic plan of (not) funding film festivals – events which povabi vsako leto več avtorjev in uglednih mednarodnih gostov, zato are not only culturally valuable within so called developed societies, pričakujemo, da bo tudi prispevek javnih sredstev rasel sorazmerno but which also represent an economic surplus, not to mention their s kakovostjo ter velikostjo festivala. O stanju na Filmskem skladu RS contribution to the positive international image of the city. Each year, na tem mestu ne bi polemiziral, vendar od edine institucije, ki je v Animateka brings to Ljubljana an increasing number of authors and naši državi odgovorna za financiranje filmskih festivalov, pričakujemo other distinguished international guests, and, therefore, we expect the oblikovanje primerne razvojne strategije in najmanj 100-odstotno contributed public funds to grow in proportion to the quality and size povečanje sredstev, namenjenih tej dejavnosti.

Dejstvo je, da se However, Animateka’s greatest disappointment this year lies with slovenska podjetja vse bolj širijo na jugovzhodne evropske trge in pri sponsors. We do not accept excuses about limited resources allocated tem pozabljajo prerazdeliti določena sredstva iz dobičkov za javne to sponsorship, about insufficient coverage and presentation of the kulturne dogodke pri nas. Kako dolgo se bodo pri nas podjetja še sponsor’s name in the media (even though the Slovene media actually Uvod Intro odločala sponzorirati kulturne dogodke glede na dikatat trenutne censor sponsor trademarks when it comes to festivals), about already politične opcije na oblasti?
