Spielraum

Spielraum is a publication about Jasmina Cibic's latest work, developed with the Ludwig Museum, Budapest; the International Centre of Graphic Arts, Ljubljana; and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Belgrade.

Cibic's own artwork reflects critically upon the power structures evident in the art and architecture that emerged from countries involved in the non-align movement. Her multimedia works often gather and re-stage found materials that are in some way infused with the spectre of political ideology and have, over time, changed their function so as to perform national identity.

This publication is fully illustrated with the artist's works from the project and is set out as a reader that not only explores issues addressed in the work—namely concepts of soft power and strategies of nation building developed through art and architecture.
