Transitland. Video Art from Central and Eastern Europe 1989–2009

A reader with essays, examines the video art of the last twenty years in post‑Socialist Central and Eastern Europe. The authors of the book are well‑established professionals in the region — curators, critics and artists. They provide selective analyses of different aspects, and an angle on the field observed, demonstrating its fecundity and vividness.

The publication includes six essays commissioned specially for this volume and twelve republished papers, three of which can be read in English for the first time.

A separate section, entitled Transitland Video Archive, provides the list and short descriptions of the selected 100 videos.
