Search by Country
Notes: Monographs and individual artists' exhibition catalogues are not included in this list, except where they are explicitly feminist and provide a key role model for feminist art practice. You can look at exhibitions and anthologies separately by moving to those pages.
For authors' last names use capital letter first. For those beginning with "A", type "A" or use the first 3 letters of their last name.
The country search uses full English names, e.g. The Netherlands, except for USA and UK. "International" (use Capital "I") is the category used for projects where artists from more than 3 countries are involved. Books and exhibitions under "International" are in addition to those listed as individual countries. New sections have been added for geographical regions/ continents: Asia, Africa, Pacific, Middle East, South America, Scandanavia. These categories are in addition to individual countries listed. So, for searches in Africa, look also in Nigeria and Egypt.
The title search is limited to words used in the title, it does not provide a keyword or subject search facility. This search is for one word only, no boolean (multiple) searches are supported. Artists' last names can also be searched in the title section, if they are in a book or exhibition title.

Press release of this book:
'While acknowledging the "problem of performativity",*/Performative Gestures Political Moves/*, however, (still) lingers on the term, exploring its echoing in the research focused on what should thus also be considered as an effect of the performance of power -- on the art and theory production in so-called "Eastern Europe". The book does not(only) represent the research on performance art and performativity in a region denoted as "East European", but also produces positions that go beyond the representation(s) of what performance art, performativity in/and "Post-Socialist Europe" are.
Performative Gestures Political Moves/therefore also raises questions of historisation(s) and their ideological positioning. Especially within feminist art history but also in feminist curating, the question of labelling art production as feminist has been till today a burning subject. How, what, when, why, where, by whom and for whom is(performance) art feminist, obviously does not have an unambiguous answer. The same is true for art and feminism as such. Therefore, the publication has aimed to foster a reflection on research positions and theoretical considerations of performativity, performance art, feminism, historisation and, above all, their political implications in/and/for the "continental Post-Socialist" condition.

Review reproduced from Volume 24, n.paradoxa, July 2009. Katy Deepwell 'Short Book Reviews'
Marina Grzinic and Tanja Ostojic (eds) Integration Impossible? The Politics of Migration in the Artwork of Tanja Ostojic Germany: Argobooks, 2009 Exhibition Innsbruck: Kunstpavillion Tiroler Kunstlerschaft ISBN: 978-3981-255263
This anthology brings together documentation by the artist with a range of critical essays about her projects since 2000 on immigration, border controls, acquiring visas to travel into Europe, people sans papiers,questions about language as a model for integration and discrimination against Roma people, as well as her remake of Courbet's L'Origine du Monde as a statement about the "Fortress Europe" in 2004. Ostojic's major project Looking for a Husband with an EU Passport (2000-2005) is also documented and discussed, in which she as a citizen of the former Republic of Yugoslovia, living in Belgrade, advertised for an EU husband, married and then divorced a German citizen to obtain papers to live and work in Germany. Ostojic's challenging work on these subjects has produced a book which challenges us to reconsider how we think about "subjects" and "citizenship" in today's globalised economy. Essays by Suzana Milevska, Pamela Allara, Rune Gade, Sefik Tatlic, Manuela Bojadzijev and Judith Surkis.
