The Screening will be in English and the Discussion will be in Arabic and English.

In our next meetup of “Hiwar Art Club”, you’re invited to attend the screening and open discussion on “Change” art documentary from “Art21” film series.

How do artists respond to a world in flux? In what ways do artists act as agents of change, and what kinds of aesthetic choices do they make to express it?

Our screening will feature artists: Ai Weiwei and El Anatsui who bear witness, through their work, to transformation—cultural, material, and aesthetic—and actively engage communities as collaborators and subjects.

Art21 is a celebrated global leader in presenting thought-provoking and conceptual content about contemporary art, and the go-to place to learn first-hand from the artists of our time. A nonprofit organization, Art21’s mission is to inspire a more creative world through the works and words of contemporary artists.
