Catalogue published on the occasion of the solo exhibition Kalbträgerin at Bundeskunsthalle, Bonn, curated by Susanne Kleine. In the exhibition, Domanović expands on one of her themes—Bulls Without Horns—and looks at scientific research and development, namely bioengineering and the breeding of certain traits in cattle, like the lack of horns. She translates these ideas into sculptures, which she produces by means of computer modelling, 3D printing and casting in synthetic plaster. Her votive stelae are transformed depictions of the Greek Moschophoros (Calf-Bearer) of the 6th century BC, found on the Acropolis of Athens in the so-called Perserschutt (the rubble of the architecture and sculptures destroyed by the Persians in 480 BC). The artist fuses the science and culture of different eras, subtly and poetically questioning norms and beauty outside of norms. 

"Aleksandra Domanović reminds us of how fast society is able to adopt new habits and also ethics by the use and further development of science and technologies. She finds a way to express this in haunting images, yet empathic and thoughtful.” – Rein Wolfs
