Seminar
Seminar 8: “Hader Halal” (With Regard to Presence)
Nov 13, 2023
12:00–1:30pm ET
Online
Co-presented with OSUN Center for Human Rights & The Arts at Bard, Correction* Seminar 8 features Fehras Publishing Practices’s Sami Rustom and Kenan Darwich, who share their research into the history and presence of publishing and its entanglement in the sociopolitical and cultural sphere in the Eastern Mediterranean, North Africa, and the Arab diaspora. Engaging different methods and ways of production, the collective focuses on the relationship between publishing and art historiography.
The program will be held in Arabic with live English interpretation.
The twelve-part Correction* Seminar Series is structured as an open curriculum and presented from September 2022 through May 2024. Led by Vera List Center faculty and staff, each monthly seminar in this two-year series explores the perils and potentials of the political, social, and metaphorical implications of “correction.” Bridging theory and practice, Correction* unfolds through three distinct research clusters every semester set to guide our joint investigation into Restitution, the Body, and Carcerality. It is presented as part of the Barbara Jordan Lectures: The State of Democracy series.
The Vera List Center is committed to ensuring that our programs are accessible to and inclusive of all. Please let us know when registering if you need any accommodations.
