‘MILENA, from 2019, is the title of a very particular multimedial performance by ZeVu. It was part of an exhibition dedicated to the life and work of Milena Pavlovic-Barilli at Jevrem Grujic House in Belgrade. Here, the artist explored the versatility and complexity of Barilli’s art. She made the dress Barilli designed at the beginning of the last century and gave it a new contemporary interpretation. Then, she put it on and deeply, physically and emotionally, she engaged with her in contemplation on what it means to be a female artist in the past, in the present and in the future.’  Nina Vagic
