Library Shelf Location 18.IVEK
Publication Date 2011
Description Published in conjunction with the first solo museum exhibition of Croatian artist Sanja Ivekovic’s work in the United States, this volume presents an overview of her projects in video, performance, installation, and photo montage from the early 1970s to 2011, offering her unflinching view of gender roles, the official politics of power, and historical forgetting prompted by changes in ideology. Essays by curator Roxana Marcoci and literary critic Terry Eagleton offer a critical examination of the neo-avant-garde in the former Yugoslavia and provide a philosophical context for investigating urgent issues such as women’s rights, political activism, and collaborative strategies in art.
