APHASIA book is published on the occasion of a film installation and solo exhibition by artist Jelena Jureša at ARGOS, centre for visual arts in 2019. With texts by Berber Bevernage and Eline Mestdagh, Barbara Matejčić, Branka Benčić, Jelena Jureša, Asa Mendelsohn, Rolf Quaghebeur.
As a medical term, aphasia refers to the inability to speak or to find the right words. Starting from the themes tackled in the film, this book focuses on the collective silence surrounding crime and the compartmentalisation of historical events, and it traces the line between Belgian colonialism, Austrian anti-Semitism and the wars in Yugoslavia.
