Don’t miss the launch of “Nil Yalter: Circular Tension,” a compelling narrative by Omar Kholeif (@dromarkholeif) through the life and work of one of the pioneering artists of our time, published by Mousse.
Dr. Omar Kholeif in dialogue with Nil Yalter in Venice at 17:30 CET on the 17th of April.
Born in Cairo in 1938 and raised in Turkey, #NilYalter has lived in France since 1965. Over the course of six decades, the artist has created genre-expanding artistic projects across disciplines, innovating across both form and content regardless of the complex sociopolitical context that has surrounded her. Dr. Kholeif fuses the genres of auto/biography to unfurl a social and historical context that examines concepts of ethnicity, the diaspora, and feminism. Gender and sexuality are unbuckled, presenting a distinct picture of the changing cultural climate both in France and globally during the last century.
