Published in conjunction with major exhibitions at Kestner Gesellschaft Hannover and Kunstmuseen Krefeld, this catalog documents Georgian artist Anna K.E.'s experiments in performance, visual media, and installation. 
Georgian artist Anna K.E.’s practice revolves around a continual engagement with the human body. She studies physical experiences of time, dance, and pain, intertwining these themes in site-specific installations that play with the exhibition space’s structures of guidance and shatter the social norms that govern it. Simultaneously, her work engages deeply with her own life story and formative experiences of growing up in Georgia and training as a ballet dancer. Anna K.E.’s work has been shown in solo exhibitions in several countries; in 2019, she represented Georgia at the 58th Venice Biennale.
Released on the occasion of the exhibitions Dolorem Ipsum at the Kestner Gesellschaft Hannover and For Our Parents at the Kunstmuseen Krefeld, this catalog delves into Anna K.E.’s multimedial practice, which ranges from drawing, painting, film, photography, and performance to sculpture and elaborate installations that situate the human being in a world defined by both freedom and profound uncertainty. The catalog contains contributions by international critics Estelle Hoy, Sylvia Martin, and Alexander Wilmschen, as well as the artist herself.
