Jatun Risba - Getting Gold (11:07)
Production: Jatun Risba & Franco G. Livera, 2019
Getting Gold is a vanitas video that questions the impact of value systems on ideas of authorship and art-making. The video performance between Jatun Risba, Franco G. Livera and Daniele Semeraro is a meditation on the fugacity of existence in all its forms. Bodies are growing (g)old, human behaviors are becoming outdated, wild species are getting extinct and technologies obsolete. Amidst the impermanence of life, what is worth doing? (Source: author)

Nataša Berk - Eine Revolution Ohne Tanzen Ist Eine Revolution Die Sich Nicht Lohnt (03:36)
Production: N.B., 2011/12
The video consists of two editions (2011/12 and 2017). Each was filmed at a different location, probably in the artist's apartment at the time. The work is a dance performance for the camera. The artist dances to music not recorded in the video. The very absence of music is the essence of the work, as the artist invites the viewers to choose the music they will listen to while watching her dance. The title of the work is based on a famous quote attributed to the American anarchist Emma Goldman (If I can't d...

Dr. Xenia, Andreja Džakušič, Keiko Miyazaki, Iva Tratnik, Simon Macuh - Stealing Land (07:15)
Production: SCCA-Ljubljana, Galerija Alkatraz, Festival Mesto žensk, 2021
The performance Stealing Land Dr Xenia performs on the land of the former Rakuš mill in Celje, a textbook example of capital appetites for plots in good locations, which evict ideas of non-profit spaces for culture intended for common and public good. The fight for territory begins and ends with incantations of masked performers dressed in black business attires: "I'm stealing, you're stealing, we're all stealing." (Source: excerpt of the curatorial text by Vesna Bukovec, Ana Grobler and Sebasti...

Dr. Xenia, Andreja Džakušič, Keiko Miyazaki, Iva Tratnik, Simon Macuh - The House of Cards (06:45)
Production: SCCA-Ljubljana, Galerija Alkatraz, Festival Mesto žensk, 2021
In the performance The House of Cards, Dr Xenia does not travel north or west by train, but in a south-easterly direction. On the route that led to Kumrovec in the previous country, but ends at the last station in front of the Croatian border in the new country, it tries to make a house out of cards. The impossible task is reminiscent of the inability to create safe life and home, which constantly elude refugees and migrants, as well as precarious workers of all ages, including cultural workers. At the end...
