This catalogue is published in conjunction with 'Palestine c/o Venice', a collateral event of the 53rd Art Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia. 'Palestine c/o Venice marks the first Palestinian participation. This exhibition embraces the Palestinian people through a conceptual framework that questions the disproportionate use of the media image of Palestinians as faces without names and people without a voice. The works challenge media imagery that simplifies and re-contextualizes the events in Palestine thereby producing repeated clichés through sensational sound bites that gloss over historical and realistic perspectives.' - Salwa Mikdadi, from the Foreword.
With illustrations of participating artists' works, artist statements, information on venues in Palestine, and artists' and exhibition team biographies.
