Misplaced copy of old version of article

Untitled Bojana Barltrop (born in 1949 in Skopje, Yugoslavia) is an artist, photographer, videomaker, performer, designer, and architectural historian. Barltrop’s process-based body of work and research investigate the relationship between desire and politics through the lenses of the performative body and the architectural space. From the late 1970s to the early 1990s Barltrop (known then as Bojana Komadina) was an active member and one of the most significant female artists of the experimental Belgrade and Yugoslavian art scene working mainly with media such as photography (with a focus on the use of Polaroid cameras) and video. Along with her artistic practice Barltrop was Editor of the Design Programme for the Gallery Sebastian in Dubrovnik (1981-1986) and Member of the Managing Board and Chief Executive of Studio 019 Sintum in Belgrade (1984-1992). Barltrop has lived in the UK since 1993. Her work ‘Suicide’ (1981) was acquired by the Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgrade (MSUB) as part of the permanent collection of its newly opened building (2017).
