(Un)governed Spaces in Afghanistan
Past: September 6 → 26, 2013
In this exhibition composed of oil paintings, installation, and handmade books, the artist Gregory Thielker collaborated with anthropologist, Noah Coburn, to create a complex portrait of Afghanistan today. They toured the region without bodyguards or military oversight, and were able to get intimate access to locations and local people surrounding the base. This exhibit is a powerful contrast to the predictable narratives of Afghanistan because it combines anthropology and art to create a layered and open-ended presentation of life amid conflict.
