Медиала - уметничка група која је основана 1953. године у Београду.
Настанак Медиале
1953. године у Дому омладине, који се тада налазио на Обилићевом венцу у Београду, на изложби о Ле Корбизјеу - Леонида Шејке и Синише Вуковића - студената архитектуре дошли су Дадо Ђурић и Урош Тошковић, и то се може сматрати првим контактом чланова будуће групе Медиала јер они, ту, на самој изложби одмах налазе заједнички афинитете да остваре нешто што ће у њиховом стваралаштву сјединити време и човека, као и прошлост и будућност.
Језгро групе се полако шири када се, 1957. године формира друштво пријатеља Балтазар, које сачињавају Леонид Шејка, Синиша Вуковић, Миро Главуртић, Дадо Ђурић, Мишел Контић, Урош Тошковић, Вукота Вукотић, Пеђа Ристић и Оља Ивањицки

Olja Ivanjicki entered public limelight with Mediala - a group of young artists (painters, writers, architects) seeking their own original expression, who made a significant impact on Belgrade's public and cultural life at the end of the fifties and the beginning of the sixties. The art they presented was strongly symbolic and based on the avant-garde trends of the first decades of the twentieth century. In their vision of Surrealism, Dado Djuric, Ljuba Popovic, Toskovic, Leonid Sejka, Miro Glavurtic, Milic of Macva and other Mediala members thus found themselves in the company of authors having an equally original style such as Vasko Popa, Danilo Kis, Borislav Pekic, Brana Petrovic, and Zika Pavlovic.“

MORE THAN ART: MEDIALA, FROM MOVEMENT TO HISTORY OF SALVATION
The power of epochal ideas
Mediala is in one hand created of architects, geodesists and painters educated on the Faculty of Architecture, and on the other hand are violators, magicians and sorcerers who came from the mythical country of Crna Gora, from cellars and towers. Using honey and dragons, horror and humor, solar and macabric, fear and eroticism, uranium and underground characteristics, they have created a new art, symbols have bloomed as black suns and genitals. They have crossed the incompatible, invoked the forces, magical ideas, luxurious images of bizarre inspiration, followed by their poetry, essays and theory“

Discussion
Pronasla sam sledece:
The name of Mediala itself is an aesthetic program, an ontological syntagm, a crossroads of different worlds and visions. It is consisted of two words, ”med” (meaning ”honey” in Serbian, and in French we use the word ”miel”) and ”ala”, the old Serbian name for a monster or a dragon. The unity of these meanings is creating new semantic fields and different interpretations. With Leonid Šejka, the main theoretician of the group, Miro Glavutrić, says: ”Behind one dialectics, there was one trialectics. The dialectics of the honey and the dragon, a progressively growing entropy and anarchy, the dragons of very long lasting myths and esotery, finished in the third place, the place of synthesis, never-ending triads, in Mediala, which is the synthetic form of the thesis of the honey and antithesis of the dragon. In our theories there was a synthesis and a point of convergence.” Mediala is penetrated by mysticism, abstractness and beauty in a supernatural sense. It has brought a great art because of its epochal ideas.
