Opening Reception | Open Sesame, an Exhibition on the Invasion of Kuwait

Wednesday, January 16, 2013, 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm

Free

Featuring work by: Ganzeer, Jeanno Gaussi, Rheim Alkadhi, and Makan Collective (Diala Khasawnih & Samah Hijawi).

In the evening of August 2, 1990, a family of four, vacationing in Greece was driving through the mountains on the island of Crete. Someone turned on the radio and the news announced, "the lands of Kuwait are invaded." The father slapped himself and shouting incoherently turned the car around and went back to the hotel. He asked the hotel owner for a radio, started making phone calls and soon thereafter the family flew back to Athens and from there to Jordan. Kuwait was no longer their home.

The participating artists in Open Sesame take the invasion of Kuwait in 1990 as a starting point. Using material collected from people who left Kuwait twenty-two years ago and were interviewed for the purpose of this exhibition, the artists work with personal mementos such as housewares, letters, and diaries along with the interviews themselves. In their reflection and reaction to this moment, they bring in their own histories, circumstances, and geographies to the story. This exhibition presents a very personal narrative, oscillating between the fictional and the real with the aim of documenting a moment, or parts of a moment, that quickly escaped.
