SUMMARY:Diana Al-Hadid: Archive of Longings:  Exhibition at the Henry Art Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Diana Al-Hadid’s work explores the interplay between the female body and the European art canon; Syrian\, Muslim\, and immigrant histories and mythologies; and architectural icons and the natural world. Born in 1981 in Aleppo\, Syria\, and raised in Cleveland\, Ohio\, Al-Hadid creates artworks that speak to her interest in the melding of cultures and the translation of disparate narratives. This monographic exhibition will consist of a selection of 13 sculptural works made between 2010 and 2021 brought into interpretive grouping for the first time. Together the sculptures identify the artist’s investigation of historical\, mythological\, and biblical narratives of women as a fundamental through-line of her practice.\nWhile Al-Hadid’s work is often interpreted primarily in relation to her interest in the art historical canon\, this show situates the artist’s deployment of these influences as advancing a network of feminist concerns: the female protagonist and its conflicted history\, as well as women’s agency\, power\, and identity. The title refers to the artist’s ongoing interest in the incomplete nature of collective history and the palimpsest of narrative and information that constructs our sense of history; it also resists the monumentalizing (and ultimately\, patriarchal and colonialist) idea of fixity and singularity. Instead\, Al-Hadid foregrounds disruption and rupture in the endlessly woven fabric of our stories of self/the body\, the migration of information and interpretation through space and time\, and the fundamentally unfixed nature of human desire.\nThe exhibition is held in conjunction with the Feminist Art Coalition (FAC)\, a nationwide initiative of art projects that seek to generate cultural awareness of feminist thought\, experience\, and action.\nA brochure with a curatorial essay\, alongside installation images\, will accompany the exhibition.

SUMMARY:Tatreez Workshops and Lectures by Tatreez and Tea  - Ongoing
DESCRIPTION:Your instructor is author and scholar Wafa Ghnaim\, founder of Tatreez & Tea! \nTatreez & Tea’s mission is to preserve Palestinian embroidery and storytelling traditions in the diaspora. Tatreez & Tea is the first of it’s kind. When Wafa first founded Tatreez & Tea in 2016\, she was the only educator solely focused on Palestinian embroidery\, traveling the US and the world. Now\, new local initiatives\, culture bearers\, “tatreez circles”\, and mentors are emerging from communities around the world like never before. The tatreez revolution has gained a beautiful momentum and now is the time to join. \nWafa’s goal in her educational classes are three-fold: educate students from art history and oral history perspectives that preserve the meanings\, stories and symbolism of traditional Palestinian embroidery motifs; teach versatile skills that allow students to eventually produce large independent projects; encourage students to become creative and grow beyond simply abiding by traditional embroidery principles. \nClick here for upcoming events! \nhttps://www.tatreezandtea.com/events

SUMMARY:Online Art Exhibition: Site Insight
DESCRIPTION:November 13\, 2021—January 8\, 2022 | Online Exhibition \nJames Harris Gallery is pleased to present “Site Insight” an exhibition that explores how artists use and interpret site as a position or location especially as to its environment. This show considers how some artists interpret site in a more literal term while others use it allegorically. The disparate works act like instruments in an orchestra pit. Individually\, they are decisive works but taken in unison they reveal the emotional power works of art can have on a broad range of subjects and human character. Beauty is seen through ugliness and vice versa. All the works enlighten the viewer to the complexity of the world in which we live. The artists included in the show are: Squeak Carnwath\, Claire Cowie\, Fay Jones\, Julie Mehretu\, Jeffry Mitchell\, Mary Ann Peters\, Luke Kempton Williams\, Bing Wright\, and Amir Zaki.

SUMMARY:Arab Film Festival 2021
DESCRIPTION:We are putting the finishing touches to AFF2021’s schedule and can’t wait to share it! In the meantime\, here’s a little preview of what’s coming: \n\nA selection of shorts from Iraq and Lebanon\nOur annual Queer Lens\nAward winning features including Moss Agate\, Our River…Our Sky\, and 200 Meters\nA spotlight on documentaries directed by women\nand more!\n\nMoss Agate (Lebanon\, 2021)\nBeirut\, summer 2019.  The filmmaker experiences a descent into the abyss. His health is at stake and his film community is falling apart.  His actress friend Tamara is the last one to leave… \nOur River…Our Sky (Iraq\, 2020)\nIn a typically mixed Baghdadi neighborhood in 2006\, a community of ordinary people try to live their everyday lives amidst the threat of unpredictable violence. At the heart of these intersecting stories we find Sara\, a single mother and novelist. With the news of Saddam Hussein’s sudden execution shortly before the New Year\, Sara and her neighbors brace themselves for an uncertain future. Yet\, like a miracle\, each is able to sustain a fragile sense of hope. \n200 Meters (Palestine\, 2020)\nMustafa and his wife Salwa live 200 meters apart in villages separated by the Israeli border wall. One day he gets a call every parent dreads: his son has been injured in an accident. Rushing to cross the Israeli checkpoint\, Mustafa is denied on a technicality. But a father’s love won’t give up and he will do anything to reach his son. A 200 meter distance becomes a 200 kilometer odyssey\, as Mustafa\, left with no choice\, attempts to smuggle himself to the other side of the wall.

SUMMARY:The Almond Blossom Knows Its Life Is Short: Poetry of Palestinian Women in Translation
DESCRIPTION:Description: In this class we will explore a selection of translated poetry by Palestinian women. How do these poets tend to loss? How do they engage with their interiors while living in varying states of siege\, occupation\, or exile? What are their obsessions? Which mythologies do they reject and which others do they remake? Together we’ll read across generations\, including poems by Maya Abu Al-Hayyat\, Asmaa’ Azaizeh\, Ahlam Bisharat\, Laila Al-Sa’ih\, and Fadwa Touqan. Join us to reflect together on theme and structure; to encounter texts in the original Arabic alongside the translations; and to end with a writing prompt inspired by our exploration. \nFormat: Online via Zoom
