“What if women ruled the world?” Yael Bartana stages the question in her performative Two Minutes to Midnight, where an all-women government of a fictitious country must take a stand on an imminent nuclear threat from a foreign nation. A panel of fictional characters and real women experts in fields such as defence, law, politics, and psychology is set in a democratic Peace Room, mirroring the toxically masculine War Room in Stanley Kubrick’s classic Cold War satire, Dr. Strangelove.
