Raad returns to the Wex to share his interdisciplinary approach to challenging traditional ways of storytelling and historical documentation. He examines how we come to trust photographic and video documents, what roles memory and stories play in times of conflict, and how art histories are created in the Arab world. His work also explores the rapid growth of museums, galleries, and art fairs alongside the political and military conflicts that have shaped the region.
Join Raad for a Q&A after the presentation.
