On this episode I’m joined by Wael Shawky. Wael Shawky is an Egyptian artist working between Alexandria and Philadelphia, whose practice is based on extensive periods of research and inquiry, tackling notions of national, religious and artistic identity through film, performance and storytelling. Shawky reconsiders historical narratives and contemporary culture. He was commissioned by the Egyptian Ministry of Culture to represent Egypt this year in the 60th edition of the Venice Biennale.
This exclusive season of Everything is Connected: African Artists & Curators in the 60th edition of the Venice Biennale is sponsored by The Africa Institute, Global Studies University.
