Slavs and Tatars

Slavs and Tatars: Projects 98. The Museum of Modern Art, New York. 2012.

Slavs and Tatars (founded in 2006) is an art collective devoted to an area east of the former Berlin Wall and west of the Great Wall of China known as Eurasia. The collective’s practice is based on three activities: exhibitions, books and lecture-performances. Since its inception, the collective has shown a keen grasp of polemical issues in society, clearing new paths for contemporary discourse via a wholly idiosyncratic form of knowledge production: including popular culture, spiritual and esoteric traditions, oral histories, modern myths, as well as scholarly research.
