Sanja Iveković 's guerilla action The Face of the Language from 1998 (Zagreb) was part of a broader project initiated by the NGO b.a.b.e. entitled End the Violence Against Women. The theme of the project is the hate speech that women face on daily basis (“bitch”, “slut”, “lesbian”, “feminist”).

 

The work will be shown at the upcoming exhibition Realize! Resist! React!, Performance and Politics in the 1990s in the Post-Yugoslav Context.

 

The opening of the exhibition: June 24, 2021, at the Museum of Contemporary Art Metelkova.
