Tina Bara and Alba D’Urbano have been working together since 2000. Both are professors at the Academy of Fine Arts Leipzig. Tina Bara grew up in East Germany, Alba D’Urbano in Tivoli near Rome. Both women incorporate their personal experiences and memories into their work and often also make these the object of joint artistic processing and mastery. Female identity, the body, dealing with images of the body, questions of origin, her relationship to everyday life and her personal history, as well as particular social circumstances are linked to the close examination of image development strategies on a wide variety of levels. The artists combine documentary strategies with performance-related image production and narrative with conceptual elements, sometimes adding text and sound elements. Their intensive dialogue is proving to be extremely stable and mutually fruitful.
The well-conceived book highlights several different levels and draws attention to the complexity of the work of this artistic duo.
