Lana Čmajčanin / EVROVIZION.CROSSING STORIES AND SPACES

With the ifa exhibition project “EVROVIZION.CROSSING STORIES AND SPACES” Lana Čmajčanin sees strong thematic links to her artistic practice that addresses geopolitical mapping, political contexts and the female body. She also explores structural violence, the politics of memory, practices of nationalist politics and the neoliberal management of trauma.
The kickoff of the ifa exhibition project “EVROVIZION.CROSSING STORIES AND SPACES” was originally planned to take place as a physical get-together in Sarajevo in June 2020, but this was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. ifa therefore asked everyone involved in the project to send a video statement about their work, their motivation for participating, and their well-being during the lockdown.
“EVROVIZION.CROSSING STORIES AND SPACES” is the new co-creative exhibition project by ifa (Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen). It critically explores the current sociopolitical situation in Europe through the prism of a variety of views and opinions, focusing its research on topics such as borders, nationalism, autocracy, minorities, neocolonialism and the environment. “EVROVIZION” will constantly change while touring through Southeastern and Eastern Europe.
