Through painting\, video\, photography\, and installation\, the artists reflect on themes that have long shaped the Kurdish experience\, such as displacement\, exile\, memory\, and gender\, while giving voice to the resilience of Kurdish communities in the face of decades of persecution. Featured artists include Sherko Abbas\, Serwan Baran\, Kani Kamil\, Hayv Kahrman and Walid Siti of Iraq; Savas Boyraz\, Zehra Dogen and Şener Özmen of Turkey; and Khadija Baker and Bahram Hajou of Syria. The exhibition opens on December 6\, 2019 and runs through February 20\, 2020. \nThe Middle East Institute’s (MEI) new Art Gallery is a unique platform in Washington\, DC dedicated to exhibiting modern and contemporary art\, video and photography from the Middle East and North Africa. Housed in the Middle East Institute’s newly renovated historic headquarters in Dupont Circle\, the gallery showcases up to five exhibitions annually featuring established and emerging artists from the region and the diaspora. \nWho’s attending this program?
