About ArteNews
|
Arts advocates and supporters have a new vehicle to find out about art and cultural happenings in the US and specific areas of the Middle East. ArteNews is a new web based magazine that offers ongoing updates on arts news and events pertaining to the Middle East and its diaspora. Read featured articles that review events, give insight into cultural programs and regional ventures, and offer critical commentary on the cultural and artistic productions that make up the diverse Middle Eastern scene. Our goal is to provide a wealth of resources that have until now been unavailable in one place. As we continue to develop ArteNews, you will be able to access news and event listings from regional newspapers, film festivals, art galleries, museums, cinemateques and arts and educational institutions.

In the Clement Society of Cinema
Between the ardor of militants and passions of aesthetes, a retrospective visit to the golden era of ciné-clubs in the Arab world
A special issue of ArteNews edited by Daikha Dridi and Rasha Salti.
There was a time in the contemporary history of Arab world, a mere forty or thirty years ago, when the passion for non-commercial cinema and the yearning for critical engagement with art and culture inspired the formation of ciné-clubs. Soon enough, these cultural spaces drew significant membership and transformed into vivacious realms for a free and open dialogue with world cinema and politically-engaged art. |

Mitra Tabrizian at Tate Britain
June 4 - August 10, 2008
n June 2008, Tate Britain will open the first major exhibition in the UK of the work of the Iranian-British photographer and film director, Mitra Tabrizian. Born in Tehran, Tabrizian’s primary concerns are contemporary issues and debates and her interests range from post-feminism and post-colonial theories and the effects of late capitalism in Britain, to the shifting realities of life in post-revolutionary Iran. Bringing together more than 17 works from the last eight years, this exhibition will focus on themes of the rise of corporate culture, ageism, nomadism, migrancy and notions of homeland. |
