Ana Bilankov: Shadowing the Black Square
4 October – 4 November 2016
Photon – Centre for Contemporary Photography, Ljubljana
Internationally renowned Croatian artist Ana Bilankov lives and works in Berlin since the 1990s. She works in the fields of conceptual and experimental video, photography and installation. Current exhibition will showcase the selection of her works from different periods that are dedicated to the phenomena of collective memory and omnipresent surveillance. Ana Bilankov’s work, in particular that focused on the research of “the geography of memory”, is charged with personal stories and a unique, “migrant” view of the world. Her subject of interest is searching for and discovering new spaces, both physical and psychological. The artist is especially interested in “interspaces”, which she tries to fill by way of exploring and rummaging through the subjective and collective memories. What the exhibited works – created in different periods of the artist’s “displacements” – have in common is dealing with the issue of collective amnesia.
