David Crowley (NCAD) will chair a conversation between art historian, curator, cultural worker, and member of Kontekst collective Vida Knežević (Belgrade, Serbia), feminist scholar Nita Luci (Prishtina, Kosova), and curator Bojana Piškur (Museum of Modern Art, Ljubljana). The contributors will discuss political performance of the 1990s in former Yugoslavia, addressing the challenges of researching performance from a highly contested period of history. The group will explore the characteristics of performance practice among the different territories and the issues that arise when exhibiting such work today.
