Adel Abidin : Symphony 18 March - 18 April 2013
-
In March, 2012, at least 90 Iraqi students with 'emo' appearances were stoned to death by religious extremists in Baghdad. Abidin takes this single event and transforms it into an imaginative journey that examines death, the soul's quest for liberation and the tragic price paid in the name of freedom. Symphony is an homage to these young people. The exhibition expands and develops upon his earlier two correlated works - a video and sculpture-based installation (which lends its name to the title of the exhibition) first exhibited at Arter, Istanbul in October 2012. These works process the violent effects of discrimination, bigotry and prejudice that exist in many guises all over the world. Abidin will articulate these two works by adding a large-scale sculptural installation and a video piece at Lawrie Shabibi along with an outdoor photographic work installed on the exterior wall of the gallery.
