Galerija Miroslav Kraljević
Zagreb, Croatia
On Saturday, 5 May 2012 at 7 pm, the Galerija Miroslav Kraljević and cross links e.V. cordially invite you to the opening of re.act.feminism #2 – a performing archive in Zagreb, Croatia!
The presentation of the archive in Zagreb will be accompanied by discursive programmes that foreground and incite local research on the history of performance. In the last few years, this has become an increasingly discussed topic, accompanied by noticeable attention in curatorial, artistic and publishing projects on both the history of performance and curating performance.
Discussions and the workshops will serve as a base for introducing new additions to the re.act.feminism archive, therefore encouraging a collaborative process of curating and questioning the archive.
The Galerija Miroslav Kraljević (G-MK) is an independent and non-profit contemporary art platform and gallery, dedicated to artistic and intellectual practices that question various phenomena of contemporary culture and society, especially those looking into the relation between politics and aesthetics.
