Artpapers.org, Jan. 21, 2013, no. 37:01, pp. 21-23
Laliv Melamed discusses the video trilogy ...and Europe will be Stunned, by Israeli-born artist Yael Bartana, to highlight the artist's ability to render in both future and past worlds, particularly in relation to the historical experiences of the Polish community. Bartana's videos are described as being mythical and fluid in time, which creates unique aesthetic practices and politics in her video work.
