Monther Jawabreh
‘What is Known #4’
The first ever Ramallah Art Fair began last week at the city’s Zawyeh Gallery. It brings together more than 100 works from 26 Palestinian artists, including this series by Jawabreh silk embroidered representations of the faces of child martyrs.
Durar Bacri
‘Homeless in Yaffa’
All the participating artists, the gallery says, “explore a variety of subjects stemming from the Palestinian context.” Bacri’s work much of which is set in the time of the war on Gaza in 2014 is “a tribute to all the people who struggle to survive and who find beauty in even the worst tragedies.”
