A collection of essays by Slovenian curator, museum director, and scholar Zdenka Badovinac, who has been an influential voice in international conversations rethinking the geopolitics of art after the fall of communism, a ferocious critic of unequal negotiations between East and West, and a historian of the avant-garde art that emerged in socialist and post-socialist countries in the last century. Badovinac has been, moreover, an advocate for radical institutional forms: museums responsive to the complexities of the past and commensurate to the demands of the present. Gathering writings from disparate and hard-to-find sources alongside new texts, this book offers a portrait of a major thinker, and an interesting handbook of alternative approaches to curating and institution-building in the 21st century.
