The Face of Palestinian Humanity through Art & Culture
November 2-24, 2002
Opening Gala Reception:
Saturday November 2nd 5:30-8:00 P.M.
ONLY IN WILLIAMSBURG!
Organized by Renda Dabit, a month-long exhibition of Palestinian art and culture from 1960 to the present featuring the work of approximately 50 artists — established as well as emerging talent — of Palestinian origin. Included will be paintings, drawings, photography, video/film, installation, calligraphy, henna, dance, music, poetry, and more. The purpose is to invite the greater New York community to share in the expression of Palestinian culture and heritage and to foster a bridge between our two communities, and to positively portray a people whose human experience and worldwide image have been wrenched by war, regional conflict and international terrorism. Al-Jisser ("The Bridge") is U.S. based organization dedicated to the promotion of Arab Art and Culture. Arab American Media Center (AAMC) works to bring to the general public a fair and accurate representation of political, economic and social issues about Arabs and American-Americans.
