Join us for a reception to celebrate The Sun Rises in the West and Sets in the East with a performance by artist Nyugen E. Smith on October 6 from 6-8pm at the Aidekman Arts Center, Medford. Guest curated by Sara Raza, the exhibition explores social and cultural seismic shifts and how the traditional culture and classifications have collapsed in contemporary society. The exhibition features eleven contemporary artists who challenge geopolitical narratives, systems, and power dynamics, including new and recent works by Lida Abdul, Kader Attia, Yael Bartana, Asli Çavuşoğlu, Ergin Çavuşoğlu, Ali Cherri, Anton Ginzburg, Emily Jacir, Nadia Kaabi-Linke, Nyugen E. Smith, and Nari Ward. Embracing sculpture, mixed-media installation, film, and performance, the exhibition captures the importance of art’s role in inspiring dialogue and reassessing political futures and structures. |
