Stitching Keffiyehs: Moving images from Palestine - Berkeley


  • Worth Ryder Art Gallery - UC Berkeley 116 Anthropology + Art Practice Building Berkeley, CA 94720 USA (map)

A group exhibition of contemporary film and video art on Palestine. The artworks included in the exhibit span a range of time (1988-2022), and offer a variety of perspectives on land, ecology, exile, war, occupation, technology, femininity, and the body. Foregrounded in our curatorial philosophy is an urgency to include Palestinian voices in a gallery show when artists are being censored and denied access to institutional spaces across the United States and Europe. 

Curated by Tamar Beja, Asma Kazmi, and Gazelle Samizay

Participating Artists: Razan AlSalah, Zeina Barakeh, Mona Rouhana Benyamin, Samia Halaby, Mona Hatoum, Jumana Manna, Larissa Sansour, Oraib Toukan

Sponsored by Arab Film and Media Institute, San Francisco • Center for Middle Eastern Studies • MENA@History of Art • Berkeley Center for New Media • Middle Eastern Language and Cultures • Arts Research Center • Department of Gender & Women's Studies

Exhibition dates: February 28 - March 13, 2024
