The Lost Paintings: a Prelude to Return
Join us for the opening of The Lost Painting: a Prelude to Return at the P21 gallery with the presence of the curators and some of the 53 exhibiting artists.
The Lost Paintings is a group exhibition showcasing the forefront of contemporary Palestinian art from Palestine and the diaspora, bringing together emerging young artists, alongside established pioneers. Tracing the memory of paintings lost to the 1948 Nakba, the exhibition contemplates on loss and destruction and on the power of imagination and art in shaping new futures.
After a successful tour in Montreal, Boston and Belfast, we are pleased to announce that the Lost Paintings is coming to London and will be exhibited at the P21 from April 16 to May 29 with a compelling programming around it. Stay tuned for gallery talks and other events.
Welcome words by Yahay Zaaloum, P21 gallery artistic director, and the curatorial team, Rula Khoury, Joëlle Tomb and Haidi Motola.
Artists who have confirmed their participation in the opening: Aya Abu Hawash and Antoine Elias Raffoul
