HAMIDA SIVAC
Hamida Sivac is an art and culture historian currently exploring the intersections between language, art, feminism, media theory, psychoanalysis, and critical materiality, but lately expanding her research also toward critical migration theories.
At the moment she is completing a PhD-thesis on ‘The Beginnings of the Feminist Critique of Language in the Visual Arts’ with a focus on Italian art of the 1970s. Some of her previous activities involve being as faculty member at the Department of Art History at the University of Vienna, working in the project ‘Rome Contemporary’ at the Bibliotheca Hertziana in Rome, and publishing on diverse topics such as the Bauhaus artist Friedl Dicker-Brandeis, bread and dough as art materials, feminist strategies of the critique of language, and communist cultural diplomacy in the Global South.
