Seraina Renz

Kunst als Entscheidung: Performance- und Konzeptkunst der 1970er Jahre

The 1970s were a heyday of performance and conceptual art in Yugoslavia. Among the most important places of art production were the self-managed Student Cultural Centers founded in the wake of the 68 riots, especially the one in the capital Belgrade. Seraina Renz examines selected works and exhibitions from this hitherto little explored place and section of recent European art history. For the first time, contemporary historical testimonies and theoretical debates are analyzed and the works are placed in an international art historical context.
