Description
A multimedia art installation that uses a soundscape of recorded voices, projected large-scale images and photographic prints to unveil stereotypes and examine how the authority of photography can get lost in translation.Drawing on the collection at the Arab Image Foundation in Beirut, and guest curated by Dore Bowen and Isabelle Massu, Not Given: Talking of and Around Photographs of Arab Women features a range of projected images and prints that call into question preconceived notions of Middle Eastern photography, in general, and Arab women in particular.
