Palestinian Artist's in the News
- Indiana University Cancels Palestinian Artist Samia Halaby’s ExhibitionOver 5,000 people have signed a petition urging Indiana University at Bloomington (IU) to reinstate a canceled retrospective of Palestinian artist Samia Halaby. The show, titled Centers of Energy, was originally scheduled to open at the institution’s Eskenazi Museum of Art (EMA) on February 10, but according to a missive penned by a board member of the artist’s foundation, Madison Gordon, the school abruptly canceled the show via email in late December due to “safety concerns.”

The Lover
Her eyes and the tattoo on her hands are Palestinian,
Her name, Palestinian,
Her dreams and sorrow, Palestinian,
Her kerchief, her feet and body, Palestinian,
Her words and her silence, Palestinian,
Her voice, Palestinian,
Her birth and her death, Palestinian.
Mahmoud Darwish
OCCUPIED: Palestinian Artworks
- Google Arts & Culture Online ExhibitionPalestinians have been living under occupation for over 50 years. Though many accounts have been heard about daily struggles and injustices, it's impossible to know how it feels unless experiences first-hand. Being occupied is not just a force that takes over the land, it restricts people physically and can even inhabit the mind. Art is one of he great forms of expression and has helped these artists communicate their thoughts, feelings and reality. Through the pieces in this exhibition we can experience frustration and disillusion but also perseverance and hope.
