Doplgenger participates in 38th European Media Arts Festival

April 15th 2025

Doplgenger, the artist duo consisting of Isidora Ilić and Boško Prostran, will be participating in the 38th edition of the European Media Arts Festival in Osnabrück, which is open from 23-27 April 2025. The festival’s theme for this year’s edition is “Witnessing Witnessing”. Artists from around the world will display works which testify to the festival’s message that witnessing is not just about recording events, but also about the influence that power and responsibility have on shaping the way that historical narratives are presented.

Doplgenger will be showing their installation Record of the Termite Landscape (2024) as part of the festival exhibition at Kunsthalle Osnabrück. The two-channel video installation juxtaposes footage of miners in Socialist Yugoslavia with ideas about the hidden representation of mining in a capitalist context.
