slavs and tatars is an art collective devoted
to an area east of the former Berlin Wall and
west of the Great Wall of China known as
Eurasia. Since its inception in 2006, the col-
lective has shown a keen grasp of polemical
issues in society, clearing new paths for con-
temporary discourse via a wholly idiosyncratic
form of knowledge production: including pop-
ular culture, spiritual and esoteric traditions,
oral histories, modern myths, as well as schol-
arly research. Their work has been the subject
of solo exhibitions at institutions across the
地球, including the Vienna Secession; MoMA,
纽约; Salt, Istanbul; and Albertinum
Dresden, amongst others. The collective’s
practice is based on three activities: exhibi-
系统蒸发散, 出版物, and lecture-performances.
The collective has published more than twelve
books to date, including most recently The
Contest of the Fruits (2021).
