Larissa Sansour at Casa Arabe, Madrid

Sansour participates in Waste Lands, a group exhibition at Casa Arabe in Madrid opening on 8 March. 

 

“Through the work of ten artists coming from Afghanistan, Algeria, Azerbaijan, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Iran, Morocco, Lebanon and Palestine, the exhibition deals with the urban, social and archeological landscapes and environments in destroyed countries impoverished by wars, speculation and the predatory voracity of large gas and oil companies, the post-colonial legacy, terrorism and violence by states, as well as the local, political and religious struggles and the hopeless deserts of exile and emigration."

 

Sansour presents her 2012 video work Nation Estate as part of the exhibition.

 

The exhibition continues until 20 May.
