Starting out from the counter-cultural scenes of state-socialist East Central Europe, the project asks what sort of critical potential the oppositional artistic positions of the time really had. Was "oppositional" a (self-)chosen stance, or did the narrow confines of a repressive regime constitute dissident thinkers so? Did artists engage with various aspects of social reality under an autocratic political rule, or were they rather concerned over the infringements of their artistic and intellectual freedom?</font></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#585858"><br></font></font></div><div><div><b><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#585858">Artists </font></font></b><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#585858"><br>Autoperforationsartisten (DE), Tina Bara & Alba D’Urbano (DE), Julius von Bismarck (DE), Scott Blake (US), Ondrej Brody (CZ), Ján Budaj (SK), VALIE EXPORT (AT), Jill Godmilow (US), Ion Grigorescu (RO), Andris Grinbergs (LV), Igor Grubic (HR), Doma Harkai (HU), IRWIN (SI), Ivank Lazki (AR), Judit Kele (HU/FR), Künstler informieren Politiker (DE), Andreja Kuluncic (HR), Zbigniew Libera (PL), Novi kolektivizem (SI), Tímea Oravecz (HU), Tanja Ostojic (RS/DE), Ewa Partum (PL), Pomaranczowa Alternatywa (PL), Radek Community (RU), Tamás St. Auby (HU), Klaus Staeck (DE), Sturtevant (US), The Yes Men (US), Milica Tomic (RS), </font></font><a href="http://UBERMORGEN.COM/"><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#585858">UBERMORGEN.COM</font></font></a><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#585858"> (AT), U.R.A.
