Das Blut im schönen Blau der Wellen, Badische Zeitung (09/2018)

In this, the third chapter of an accruing “retrospective” in reverse, Zhana Ivanova (*1977) resumes her investigation of conditions in which unspoken social and power relations play out. The Bulgarian-born artist presents a newly commissioned performative constellation comprised of a script, film, and live components.
