Nicoletta Rousseva

NICOLETTA ROUSSEVA is an art historian and PhD student at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Her research and writing examines contemporary art in Eastern Europe, particularly its response to the confluence of democracy, capitalism, and far-right politics in the region after 1989.

By occupying the strange position of both problem and solution, democracy in the twenty-first century has become something surprisingly reminiscent of the totalizing, ideologically laden politics to which it is often deemed antithetical.
