Du oder ich? Collective Soul. Ethik des Miteinanders
Zahida is a Feminist
Ðejmi Hadorvić
In my artistic work I aim to show present-day Bosnian women through different aspects, ones that are not dominated by the eyes of others. In recent decades Bosnian women have predominantly been presented through two images: as victims or as housewives. I would like to break with these stereotypical images, produced by an ethnic affiliation, that seek to define me as a Bosnian woman according to a cultural habitus.

The Promised Land
Lina Albrikienė
The starting point for The Promised Land is formed by the comprehensive research that she carried out on site in Detroit as a historical, epic and symbolic example. Since its foundation Detroit has suffered three race riots and three times has been burned to the ground. During Detroit’s rise, between 1920 and 1960, as a result of large-scale migration flows more than a million African Americans came to the city from the cotton fields of the South. During the boom years of the auto industry Detroit was considered the Promised Land. Since its decline, Detroit with its abandoned skyscrapers looks like a ghost town.
Mi nikada nismo bili
Dante Buu
Mi nikada nismo bili is formed by a series of close-ups that combine kissing couples with Bosnian slang expressions such as ortaci (in work jargon, Serbian
slang for best friend), jarani Bosnian slang for best friend), kumovi (best husband for marriage and as a family father), drugovi (friends, mates) and bráci (brother) to describe mutual attraction between heterosexual men.
