I am the Cross // Josef Ka // Antinuclear Performance // Eastern Germany Fall 2017
These fields in eastern Germany have been selected as a future site for dumping nuclear waste.
For decades, local citizens have been protesting and resisting the government’s plan.
The symbol of their fight is the wooden cross.
Josef Ka is a Russian artist who focuses mainly on site-specific visual arts and performance art. She has a deep and continuing relationship with a wide range of dance forms and traditions – from classical ballet to butoh and flamenco – and often gets her inspiration from her own personal history and experiences, in combination with a direct engagement with the here and now of life as she lives it. Three often-recurring themes in her work are Happiness, Time and Memory. View all posts by Josef Ka
