Culture and Politics in the Visual Arts of the Occupied Palestinian Territories Olga González What makes Palestinian art “Palestinian”? This became a central question in my attempt to understand the emphasis on national iden- tity that Palestinian visual artists put on their artwork, particularly given that what I saw at art exhibits and the studios and homes of artists during my short visit in Jerusalem, Ramallah, and Bethlehem could be basically classified under the broad category of contemporary visual art. Whether realistic, figurative, abstract, or conceptual in their styles, the five artists I interviewed presented me with a varied assort- ment of images meant to highlight the “Palestinian-ness” in the con- temporary art of the Occupied Palestinian Territories. These artists use the authoritative language of Western art, seeking to create a more forceful and distinctive art that is regarded as Palestin- ian.

  • Arts and Disability in Occupied Palestinian Territories Literature and Practice Review – Summary March 2021
    Arts and Disability in Occupied Palestinian Territories Literature and Practice Review – Summary March 2021 Background The Disability Under Siege project seeks to examine what are the opportunities and barriers to promoting discussion of culture, disability, and inclusive education in Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT). And how can such discussions be developed through collaborative partnerships between cultural partners and disability-led organisations? This review undertaken from December 2020 to February 2021 mapped and reviewed available literature and cultural practices relating to arts and disability in Occupied Palestinian Territories. This report provides a summary of available literature and practice to help the project engage the following key questions • How do contemporary cultural practices engage with disability? • How do disability organisations engage with contemporary cultural practices? • What can these models of engagement tell us about the priorities of each institution? • Are there productive ways of engaging the institutional structures of cultural practices to reflect upon the issue of inclusion and disability education? • How can discourses and social practices related to disability reflect upon political concerns about marginalisation within cultural practices, including issues around identity, ideology, the body, and social injustice? All arts practices identified as a result of this study have been mapped to a database which can be viewed here1 The full Literature and Practice Review of Arts and Disability in Lebanon, the Occupied Palestinian Territories, and Jordan can be found at https://disabilityundersiege.org/current-research/. Summary The Palestinian art and cultural scene is beset by multiple local and international concerns. The prevailing social, political, and economic volatility has created significant instability within the arts sector that impacts upon cultural production, visual representation, and cultural infrastructure alike.

Degrees? At present, however, education has become a topic shrouded in controversy. The 34 Rethinking Palestinian Education system has not been producing the results it promised. So we decided that it was time to take a fresh look at education in Palestine and pose a few questions. Is 40 Palestinian Cultural/Historical knowledge really the focal point of our educational system? How does Palestinian Geography education compare with educational advancements around the world? 46 Reclaiming Diversity in Education We sought out the most prolific and professional writers on education to give us Reviewing Education in Palestine their views and suggestions on how to move forward.

  • The Occupation of Palestinian Art: Maps, Land, Destruction and Concealment
    The Occupation of Palestinian Art: Maps, Land, Destruction and Concealment Garrett Bailey A New Middle East?: Diagrams, Diagnosis and Power June 2016 1 Abstract Violence in the Middle East has been the focal point in news media. My paper has shifted the focus to forms of non-violent resistance as it pertains to Israel- Palestine. Palestinians have used art as a means of resistance before Israel declared itself a state in 1948. By focusing on Palestinian artists, I am able to show the ways in which art can reveal and counter Israeli Zionists rhetoric. Artists tear down the fallacies of Zionist propaganda through non-violent means. Resistance art is expressed in different forms, from maps, architecture and sculpture to film and graffiti. By examining Palestinian artists' work throughout the history of the Israeli-Palestine conflict, I am able to find out more about Israel's settlement building, border technology, pro-Israel lobbies, the tactics of the Israel Defense Force, and the censorship of Palestinian art. 2 Palestinians have engaged in non-violent resistance from the beginning of Israel's military occupation. Through an examination of maps, architecture, graffiti and film, I explore Israel's military tactics and their mechanisms of control. How does art shape the perceptions and realities of Israel/Palestine? Palestinian art is a necessary tool in exposing the oppression of the Israeli government and countering Zionist rhetoric. Zionism's purpose in the early 20th century was to find a homeland for the Jewish people living in the diaspora, proving the fall of the Ottoman Empire after World War One disastrous for the Palestinians.

  • ¬¬¬Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Institute of Contemporary Arts, Theatre, London 26 June – 21 July 2013 Private View Tuesday, 25 June 2013, POINTS OF DEPARTURE 19:00-21:00 Basel Abbas and Ruanne Abou-Rahme, Jumana Emil Abboud, Bisan Abu Eisheh, Bashar Alhroub, Jeremy Hutchison, Olivia Plender Delfina Foundation is delighted to announce Points of Departure, an exhibition that culminates a year of collaboration with ArtSchool Palestine, the British Council and the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA). Presented at the ICA, the exhibition will be among the highlights of the 2013 Shubbak Festival in London (22 June - 6 July). Points of Departure begins as a set of thoughtful explorations into the phenomena of liminality. A condition in which one's sense of identity is diffused, liminality leads not only to states of dislocation and disorientation, but also to new perspectives. From this starting point, all the exhibiting artists undertook research-orientated projects in the UK and Palestine, seeking to make meaning, and create new narratives, in response to urgent contemporary questions around nationalism and identity, history and place. Points of Departure presents new commissions by Palestinian artists Jumana Emil Abboud, Bashar Alhroub, Bisan Abu Eisheh, and UK artists Jeremy Hutchison and Olivia Plender - all of whom undertook eight-week residencies in London and Ramallah respectively. In relation to themes raised by the project and the works produced, the exhibition also features a seminal work by Ramallah-based artists Basel Abbas and Ruanne Abou-Rahme. The exhibition has been curated by Rebecca Heald with the support of Mirna Bamieh. Bisan Abu-Eisheh’s installation acts as an introduction to the exhibition.

  • Artists Under Occupation: Collective Memory & the Performing Arts in Palestine, 1948-2011
    Artists Under Occupation: Collective Memory & the Performing Arts in Palestine, 1948-2011 By Rozina S. Gilani Submitted to Central European University History Department In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor Nadia Al-Bagdadi Second Reader: Professor Tolga Esmer CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2012 Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author. Copies by any process, either in full CEU eTD Collection or part, may be made only in accordance with the instructions given by the Author and lodged in the Central European Library. Details may be obtained from the librarian. This page must form a part of any such copies made. Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author. i Abstract This project explores the relationship between art, politics and collective memory as represented in Palestinian performing arts. By looking at the historical trajectory of art movements in Palestine and identifying key moments of change in artistic style and trends, I hope to support the argument that Palestinian art is inherently political and holds political functions in its society. Furthermore, while I initially anticipated discovering artists reproducing motifs of resistance as found in the early works of painters as a means of participating in salvage ethnography, my findings actually show a growing enthusiasm for new works that reappropriate older narratives and breathe new life into older aesthetic representations. The thesis will also explore issues of identity and pinpoint ways in which the Palestinian diaspora are participating in art production and efforts to resist the occupation through cultural means.

  • Sites and Senses Mapping Palestinian Territories in Mona Hatoum’S Sculpture Present Tense
    Sites And Senses 11 Chapter 1 Sites and Senses Mapping Palestinian Territories in Mona Hatoum’s Sculpture Present Tense Anneke Schulenberg In April 1996, Mona Hatoum, a British artist of Palestinian origin, installed a work entitled Present Tense at the Anadiel Gallery in East Jerusalem, an area annexed by Israel in 1967 (Figs 1.1–1.2).1 On the floor of the gallery, Hatoum laid 2400 pieces of soap in a rectangular shape. The soap was Nablus soap, a tradi- tional Palestinian product made of olive oil. Hatoum pressed tiny red glass beads in curved lines into the soap (Fig. 1.2). At first sight, the lines seem to make up abstract forms, but in fact they depict part of the occupied Palestinian territories that, as determined by the 1993 Oslo Accords, Israel should have handed back to the Palestinian authorities. Hatoum came across a map of these territories on the first day of her visit to Jerusalem. In Present Tense, she omitted the outlines of the map of Israel, only drawing the Palestinian territo- ries: fragmented parcels of land, scattered across Israel, resembling an archi- pelago. Present Tense was originally a site-specific sculpture as the work was made specifically for that exhibition in Jerusalem and was an immediate response to the site. By inscribing the map of the Oslo Accords on a local traditional prod- uct, Hatoum investigated the political, social and cultural dynamics at play within the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Drawing only the Palestinian territories in Israel on the soap, Hatoum focused on the Palestinian situation within the conflict.

  • Palestinian Art on the Web
    Palestinian Art Have you ever visited the Dome of the Rock? Who is Sliman Mansour? What gallery on the Web shows have recently graced Palestine? What do you know about Khalil Sakakini Cultural Vera Tamari and Centre? Which residencies or art grants are Tina Sherwell introduce currently available? Where is the Mona Lisa housed? These simple art-related questions, the new Virtual Gallery when posed to university students in at Birzeit University Palestine, are too often met by a blank stare. This, despite Palestine’s active art milieu, the regular emergence of new artists, and significant achievements made by Palestinian artists on the international scene. Many factors lie behind the paucity of information about art and culture in Palestine. For one, the Palestinian school system has for decades put the teaching of art at the bottom of its list of priorities - art was, and still is, considered a luxury. This situation has been intensified by the unstable political environment and the ongoing Helen Zughaib, “Prayer Rug for America”, 2001, as featured in In/Visible Tour at the Virtual imposed isolation of Palestinian towns and Gallery (physically shown at the Arab-American villages most recently enforced by Israel’s National Museum, Dearborn, Michigan, May 2005). placing of kilometers of concrete wall, Jerusalem Quarterly 24 [ 77 ] JQ_24.indd 77 22/09/1426, 09:18:07 Õ barbed wire fencing, patrol roads and guard towers around Palestinian communities. As a result, the usual ebb and flow of culture and information-sharing is interrupted by the more pressing concerns of daily life. In addition, people living outside Palestine have little opportunity to familiarize themselves with the Palestinian art arena, its new exhibitions, gallery openings or the work of Palestinian artists.

  • Jerusalem Of
    1 Preface Jerusalem has always held a certain mystique for visitors, be they pilgrims, travel- ers, or would-be conquerors. The Arab people and motifs that have been present in the city since its founding have never failed to fascinate and mystify. Jerusalem was the site of Europe’s first interaction with legendary Arab figures like Omar Ibn Al-Khatib and Salah Eddin;1 the reverence garnered by such leaders invari- ably led to a higher profile in the rest of the world for Arabs as a whole. As much as Jerusalem has given to those who have visited her, outsiders have, in turn, left their own cultural imprints on the city. For many Arab Jerusalemites, it has been through the classroom that they have felt the impact of external culture. Artists like Sophie Halaby, Jabra Ibrahim Jabra, and Nahil Bishara studied in the West at institutions in Italy, France, and the United Kingdom. Prominent intellectuals associated with Jerusalem and Palestine - Rashid Khalidi and Edward Said for example - have ties to the world’s top universities. The issue of Jerusalem is normally portrayed in a political-religious context, but the weight of historical and cultural factors cannot be overstated. The conflict extends into every facet of society, and in this sense the battle for Jerusalem has been markedly one-sided. This siege on Arabs and Arab culture is seen in every field, stretching from education - where students and teachers face a lack of classrooms and adequate materials - to architecture - where building restrictions and demolitions are the norm – and cultural events – which are disrupted or banned altogether.
