Published on the occasion of the exhibition Secondary Witness, curated by Maayan Sheleff, recipient of ISCP’s 2012 Curator Award. Participating artists include Lana Čmajčanin, Dor Guez, Adela Jusic, Juan Manuel Echavarria, Avi Mograbi and Michael Zupraner.

The video works in Secondary Witness touch upon the notion of testimony and explore the artist’s position as mediator. Various personal stories are presented in the included works, which reflect societies in a constant state of conflict and trauma. The artists in Secondary Witness, natives to countries of conflict, examine their place as secondary witnesses and their relationship to protagonists and their testimonies. This catalog includes a text by Maayan Sheleff.
