About the Event:
In conversation with conceptual artist Sama Alshaibi, Brown University professor Nadje Al-Ali and Columbia University professor Kathryn Spellman Poots will discuss her art and the significance of war, exile, borders and environmental destruction in her work. What role do gender and her body play in her work? And how does her art draw on historical sources and contemporary realities to express exploitations of freedom?
