Art in the face of war
To testify, to resist, to survive
About the exhibition
- In progress -
Art in the Face of War is a multimedia portrait exhibition that gives voice to artists who continue to create, teach, and share amid the devastations of war, crisis, and post-conflict recovery. Through a constellation of portraits combining text, sound, image, and video, the exhibition reveals how artistic practice becomes a space of resistance, resilience, and reconstruction, not only in times of open conflict, but also within its long aftermath.
Each artist portrayed (painter, performer, filmmaker, musician, photographer) embodies a different way of confronting violence, loss, or exile through creation. Together, these works form a collective testimony: art as a gesture of survival, a trace of humanity, and a refusal to disappear.
Format
Art in the Face of War consists of a series of multimedia portrait panels combining photography, text excerpts, and QR codes linking to audio and video testimonies.
Lightweight and modular, the exhibition is designed to travel easily and adapt to different venues: galleries, universities, cultural centers, or humanitarian spaces, encouraging public dialogue and reflection on the power of art in times of crisis and transition.
