Zorica Jevremović (Jevremović-Munitić; Serbian pronunciation: [zôritsa jeʋrěːmoʋitɕ mǔnititɕ]; 22 August 1948 – 5 October 2023) was a Serbian theatre and video director, playwright, choreographer, intermedia theorist, literary historian and feminist. [1] Her work also included that of a dramaturge in alternative and informal theatrical and film groups. [2]
Jevremović was director of the Belgrade Centre for Media "Ranko Munitić" and the editor of a regional journal for media and culture Mediantrop. [3]
Her husband was a prominent Yugoslav cultural worker and media theorist Ranko Munitić.
Jevremović Munitić was born in post-war circumstances in Ražanj, but she was raised and grew up in Belgrade.
Jevremović met Ranko Munitić at the amateur film festival "Mala Pula", on 24 June 1968. The two of them married in Belgrade on 1 May 1971, where Zorica added the surname Munitić to hers, and then they went to Zagreb. In November of the same year, they returned to Belgrade, where they lived together until the end of March 2009 (when Munitić died).
Jevremović obtained her dramaturgy degree in 1975 at the Faculty of Dramatic Arts in Belgrade.
As an advocate of a common Yugoslav cultural milieu she had undertaken research into the cultural history and theological common law in multinational and multiconfessional regions of Croatia, Slovenia and Kosovo within former Yugoslavia: Dubrovnik (1976–1980), Perast (1981), Dečani (1985–1989), Tacen (1982–1985), Povlja (1985), Poljica (1986–1990), Zjum (1990).
Jevremović was active as a dramaturge in the following key alternative and informal theatre and film groups in former Yugoslavia: KPGT (1980–1990), Art-film (1981–1983), Nova osećajnost (1984–1985), Preduzeće za pozorišne poslove (1992).
Jevremović edited the following alternative research collections focused on literary history and published in “Književnost” journal: Sava Mrkalj (1984), St. Sava and Hilandar (1988), Vatroslav Jagić (1990).
Jevremović also founded alternative theatres that operated as 'neighbourhood theatres' in ghettoized communities, in places with no previous history of theatre performances:
Zorica Jevremović had worked with marginal groups: Romani children, nuns, psychotics, disabled, blind persons, women who have suffered violence, parentless children, lesbians and women refugees.
At the beginning of the 1990s wars in former Yugoslavia, she was an active member of two anti-war groups: “Civilni pokret otpora” (The Civil Movement for Peace) and “Beogradski krug” (Belgrade Circle), in the framework of which she undertook a number of social-cultural projects.
Jevremović also published books on multimedia theory and applied theatre and several books of plays.
Her video works have been shown at the following festivals: “Video Medeja” in Novi Sad, Serbia; Superfest International Disability Film Festival in San Francisco, US; “Alternative - festival film/video” in Belgrade, Serbia, “Bitef polifonija” and the Serbian TV RTS programme “Trezor”, as well as numerous university centres around the world.
