Act

Diana Ivanova values ​​"slow journalism," as she calls it. Authenticity is of central importance to them. She believes journalism of this kind takes time and is willing to take it. It is against this background that their articles, films and projects are created. In terms of content, the individual and collective trauma suffered by the people in Bulgaria and Germany through political conditions form a focus of her work. With her concept of trauma, she is based on the social psychologist Angela Kühner and the sociologist Kai Erikson, who understands collective trauma to be “an injury to the social tissue and the connections between people”. Cultural exchange and self-awareness groups are the means she has chosen to deal with trauma in order to prepare the ground for a better future. At the beginning of every project you look back into the past, which gives you information about the historical roots of the present and current experience of people. After she published her cycle Hello Melancholy in Capital weekly , she was awarded the Writing for Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) prize by the Austrian Press Agency in Vienna on August 16, 2005 - for her text Ms. Bulgarin, Ivan Milev and Gustav Klimt .

Projects (selection)

Gorna Bela Rechka in Bulgaria

GOATMILK

Goatmilk (German: goat milk) is the name of an international cultural festival that Diana Ivanova and the team of the New Culture Foundation have been organizing every May since 2004 as a festival of memories in the village of Gorna Bela Rechka in the north-west of Bulgaria. The almost one hundred over seventy-year-old residents of the village and artists from different nations are involved - people who would otherwise not meet. In this way, Bela Rechka becomes a meeting place where the participants share stories, experiences and memories in the joint organization of the festival. The project is based on the question of whether the cultural differences fundamentally separate people from one another or whether commonality and understanding are possible. For the residents of the village and the guests and artists participating in the Goatmilk Festival , this question has now been answered. At the same time, the festival is revitalizing this region of the country, which is characterized by poverty and loneliness.

Every year the Goatmilk Festival is dedicated to a theme. In 2008 it was under the sign of the replacement of the bell. Although Bela Rechka never had a church, there was a bell in the village. And that was very important to the residents until it was stolen in the nineties of the last century. The Goatmilk Festival paved with the assistance of many artists the way for their replacement. With the support of the Goethe-Institut in Sofia, Bela Rechka received a new bell in 2009. Was realized The bell of Bela Rechka within the framework of the European program Culture 2000 of the New Culture Foundation in cooperation with the Borderland Foundation (Poland) and the Laundry Association (Birmingham, England). In addition, there were donations and the involvement of numerous volunteers.

In 2019 the director Susanna Schürmann released her documentary The Red Heritage - Artists and the Socialist Past on Arte . In her film she reports about the photographer Nikola Mihov, who has been photographing monumental sculptures in Bulgaria for many years , and about a group of young artists who illegally artistically rededicate these sculptures serving the former regime under the name Destructive Creation . In addition, Ivanova has a say with her Goatmilk Festival project , which is also reported in detail.

In May 2020 Diana Ivanova resigned her participation in the Goatmilk Festival after 16 years because it had taken a development that no longer corresponds to her philosophy and convictions.

I lived socialism

From 2004 to 2006 Diana Ivanova worked with the writer Georgi Gospodinov and the psychiatrist Rumen Petrov. The focus of their joint project was the question of what traces socialism has left in people's souls and what influence these traces had on their attitude towards life and identity. 171 stories of Bulgarians of different ages have been compiled. The website they were featured on no longer exists; but they are saved in a book that bears the title of the project - in Bulgarian. An online article by The Sofia Echo presents some of the stories abridged and in English.

My street

The My street project began with the 2005 garbage crisis in Bulgaria. It was an occasion to reflect on the importance of the street in which people live and feel at home or even strange. Diana Ivanova began to bring people together, first in Bulgaria and later in Cuba, who wrote down their story with their street, took photos and then shared them in personal encounters. Although many did not know what to do with the offer at first, in the course of their participation in the project they developed a new relationship to an environment in which they had always lived, but to which they had previously paid little attention.

My street Bulgaria

Diana Ivanova was invited together with Boris Deliradev from the British Council in Bulgaria to develop a concept for workshops with young people on the subject of The EU and Me . Out of the desire to avoid general and superficial discussions about the topic, and under the influence of the current garbage crisis at the time, the idea for the My street project took shape. After My Street Bulgaria was a success, the project was later continued in Cuba.

My street Cuban Stories

Diana Ivanova has been touring Cuba since 1997 . In 2009, she and the Iranian-Canadian photographer Babak Salari collected stories and photos of people and their streets. As in all projects, the focus was on the identity of the people and the question of how it is shaped by the environment and experience. This resulted in a first book in 2010 and a second in 2012.

Trauma and miracles

Together with Babak Salari, Diana Ivanova began research in 2008 on the project Trauma and Miracles - Portraits from northwestern Bulgaria in one of the economically weakest and poorest regions of the country. Inspired by the conviction of the French sociologist and philosopher Maurice Halbwachs , “that we are all unconsciously 'an echo' of events that happened before our time”, the aim of the project was to document the oldest inhabitants of the region and their often traumatic stories . With the intention of creating a space “for words, sentences, pictures, faces that convey a feeling for this area”, a “collection of fragments” with portraits and stories of 50 residents in eight villages was created. In 2010 the project was presented to the public with an exhibition in the Institute for Human Sciences (IWM) in Vienna and in the National Art Gallery in Sofia. Further presentations followed, from 2016 also in Germany.

Film projects

Diana Ivanova took part in various film projects. She wrote the script for Stephan Komandarev's 2009 film The Town of Badante Women . She contributed ideas and interviews to Ivan Bogdanov's film Father , released in 2012 , a Bulgarian, Croatian and German co-production. She has also published several short documentaries.

After four years of preparatory work, her 76-minute documentary LISTEN premiered on November 14, 2014 in Sofia. He reports on Radio Free Europe (RFE), which broadcast from Munich until 1995, but was banned in Bulgaria before the fall of the Wall. Diana Ivanova worked there from 1995 to 2003. The film has now found its audience in Germany, for example on June 11, 2015 at the Bayerisches Amerikahaus Foundation . Two former employees of Radio Free Europa (RFE) were invited: Luben Mutafoff, a former journalist there, and Richard H. Cummings, former head of security - both in conversation with the director after the film. Also in June 2015, the film was shown at the University of Giessen , which then provided an opportunity for discussion with Diana Ivanova. The film was also shown in naTo in Leipzig and in the bread factory in Berlin, as well as in the Filmmuseum Potsdam , in the Werkstattkino in Munich and in the Filmclub 813 in Cologne. The film was presented abroad in Kosovo and Luxembourg. The film historian Claus Löser wrote about the film: “Diana Iwanowa achieves a small miracle in her documentary debut“ Listen! ”(Hear!). It manages to soften the hardened fronts of the post-war European order retrospectively without playing down the historical and current conflicts. ”In the year of its creation, Diana Ivanova received the directing award for LISTEN as the best debut film. The film was made with the support of the Bulgarian National Film Center . After completing this film work, Diana Ivanova turned to researching the film archive of the Bulgarian State Security , for which she received a grant from the Federal Foundation for Work- Up.

Self-awareness groups

Organized since 2012 and since 2013, Diana Ivanova has been leading self-awareness groups in Bonn and Sofia. As a method, she uses the group analysis method . In this context, you are interested in giving the suffering inflicted on people due to political circumstances a place where it can be heard and possibly alleviated.

Trauma sensitive yoga

As a group analyst who has worked with traumatized people for years, Ivanova has been a member of the Network for Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TSY ingradual) since 2018 . In September 2019 she volunteered in the Yoga for Peace project in Bekaa Valley in Lebanon , where she taught refugees.
