Published in conjunction with the first solo museum exhibition of
the work of Sanja Iveković in the United States, this volume
presents the most comprehensive survey on the artist available in
English. A feminist, activist, video and performance pioneer,
Iveković (born Zagreb, 1949) came of age in the early 1970s during
the period known as the Croatian Spring, when artists broke free
from mainstream institutional settings, laying the ground for a new
form of practice antipodal to official art. She produced works of
crosscultural resonance that range from Conceptual photomontages to
video, installation and performance. This catalogue presents an
overview of the artist’s projects from the early 1970s to 2010 in
all mediums, offering a fascinating view of the official politics
of power, gender roles, and the paradoxes inherent in a society’s
collective memory. Essays by Roxana Marcoci and Terry Eagleton
offer a critical examination of the neo-avantgarde in former
Yugoslavia, within which Iveković’s work first emerged, and
place her work in the context of violence in art and real-life
circumstances. This publication contributes to the reevaluation of
significant women artists ad a broader understanding of the
discursive relationship between art, performance, political
studies, and social change in the post-1960s period.
