Reading Group: Arab Futurism
With alaa minawi, the maker of The Liminal
Rethinking the past in order to create a future. Arabfuturism is an artistic movement that formulates counternarratives to the eurocentric image projected on the Middle-East.
Join us in the cosy and informal sphere of Savannah Bay, for a morning of reading and discussing together. A book in one hand, a cup of tea and a cookie in the other.
In this Reading Group, artist and scenographer Alaa Minawi will take you along texts from Palestinian and Lebanese writers that inspired him for his installation work. Each of them using different methods for imagining a future that is unknown and maybe even more unpredictable than any other future.
More information on the exact texts that will be read follow soon.
All Reading Groups are free of charge, but please sign up so we keep track of how many people to expect. Spaces are limited. Do also check out our reading group on The Art of Joy.
