A Seated Man is printed matter and performance developed during the project Do We Ever Know Where History Is Really Made?, initiated and curetted by Eva Olthof.
Taking as a starting point the quotation “The history of death may not be just the farthest point reached by serial history, but perhaps by all history” by Paul Ricoeur, Šujica uses the famous print entitled Intestinal Tract of a Seated Man by Hans Baldung Grien as basis to anatomize contemporary forms of labour like copper theft.
Do We Ever Know Where History Is Really Made? is part of Extrapool’s guest curator project Gastpost
With Jetske de Boer, Eva Olthof, Stefano Faoro, Patrícia Sousa, Marija Šujica & Miek Zwamborn
