Originaltitel:
Contemporary art scene in Syria (Routledge (Firm))
Inhalt:
"This book focuses on the expanding contemporary art scene in Syria, particularly Damascus, during the first decade of the twenty-first century. The decade was characterized by a high degree of experimentation as young artists began to work with artistic media that were new in Syria, such as video, installation and performance art. They were rethinking the role of artists in society and looking for ways to reach audiences in more direct manners and address socio-cultural and socio-political issues. The book will be of interest for scholars of global and Middle Eastern art studies, and also for scholars interested in the recent social and cultural history of Syria and the wider Middle East"--
Anmerkung:
Based on the author's thesis (Ph. D.)--Université de Genève, 2017, under the title: Contemporary art scene in Syria 2000-2010 : between the legacy of social critique and a contemporary artistic movement in the Arab world.
