SUMMARY:8e Biennale /si:n/ س Marseille
DESCRIPTION:La biennale ouvrira le 20 octobre à Marseille à la Friche la Belle de Mai\, avec 4 programmations d’art vidéo palestinien et international\, une installation vidéo et une table ronde en partenariat avec The Markaz Review. \n/si:n/\, la lettre mathématique qui représente l’inconnu\, le “x” en français et en anglais. Le spectateur la voit comme une lettre arabe mais phonétiquement\, elle recouvre d’autres sens en langue anglaise : Scene (la scène) et Seen (to see : voir). L’intitulé /si:n/  exprime donc à lui seul la volonté du festival à être un espace de rencontres entre des cultures. \nInspiré.e.s * par les mouvements de solidarité tricontinentaux et anti-impérialistes des années 1960 à 80\, à la croisée des pratiques militantes\, artistiques et muséologiques qui ont crée une forme très particulière de musée de solidarité\, sans murs\, et le plus souvent\, des musées en exil (en soutien aux peuple du Chili\, du Nicaragua\, de l’Afrique du Sud et bien sur de la Palestine)\, la Fondation A.M. Qattan et les Instants Vidéo ont ainsi lancé un appel à solidarité.\n(*Voir l’exposition Passé Inquiet\, curatée par Kristine Khouri & Rash Salti) \n

SUMMARY:Roundtable Discussion - A Year of War: A Conversation on Our Shared Future
DESCRIPTION:RSVP here \nThe Markaz Review invites you to attend A YEAR OF WAR\, A CONVERSATION ON OUR SHARED FUTURE: a roundtable with Samina Najmi\, Ziad Suidan and Lina Mounzer\, with special guest Mona Seif. \nFollowing the publication of our October 2024 issue\, FROM HERE\, ONE YEAR ON\,  we invite you to participate in a discussion about the year of war that began on October 7\, 2023\, which has since spread into Lebanon and Yemen\, with further hostilities expected between Israel and Iran. Israel has refused ceasefire proposals from the UN and the White House\, and continues to bomb Gaza\, the West Bank\, Lebanon\, Yemen and Syria. At the same time\, many of the region’s inhabitants are living under despotic regimes\, where freedom of expression is a daily danger\, where dissidents are thrown into prison\, women’s rights are curtailed\, and religious minorities experience oppression or exile. \nSamina Najmi\, Ziad Suidan and Lina Mounzer will talk about their essays in FROM HERE\, ONE YEAR ON\, while Mona Seif will discuss discuss the continued imprisonment in Cairo of her brother Alaa Abd El-Fattah despite finishing his five year sentence (Alaa Abd El-Fattah is sharing the 2024 English PEN Pinter Prize with Arundati Roy\, it was just announced.)  \nIn this time of heightened tensions\, genocide and war\, with the entire Middle East region on edge\, Nobel Prize Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi is calling for peace from her Evin Prison cell in Tehran\, while millions march for peace in Palestine and Lebanon. Join us on October 24 for what is certain to be a passionate conversation\, moderated by Lina Mounzer\, senior editor at The Markaz Review. \n___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ \nAbout the speakers: \nMona Seif grew up in a family of Egyptian activists.
