Röda Sten Konsthall
Through a Mirror is a series of intimate presentations where one artist mirrors another artist’s work. Each occasion implies a new encounter with an invited poet, musician, dancer, or other artistic practice, who through their own creative understanding mirrors artworks in the biennial exhibition a hand that is all our hands combined.
During Kulturnatta, we have invited Ahmad Azzam, Gothenburg’s former writer in residence in Gothenburg. He is a writer from Syria with Palestinian origins and will reflect on one or more art works during the evening. Language: Arabic. Texts in Swedish and English are available.
Ahmad Azzam is an author with a background in sociology, journalism, literary writing, and screenwriting for television and theatre. Ahmad grew up in Syria, and his involvement in the struggle for freedom through articles and reports critical of the government forced him to flee the country in 2015. In the spring of 2024, his first book in Swedish was published by Smockadoll Förlag.
The programme is part of Röda Sten Konsthalls programme serie Konstfredag. Take the opportunity to enjoy an AW and board game at Restaurang Röda Sten.
