Exhibition: October 30 – November 4
Takeover: November 3
Oslo World is pleased to invite Station Beirut art platform to present a special edition of their traveling cultural project, NextStop.
NextStop is a capsule experience initiated by Station Beirut (Lebanon) that features a curated program of visual and live arts from a city’s contemporary art scene. NextStop pops up, takes over and transforms a partner venue with a rich cultural program including exhibitions, music, screenings, talks, market, workshops, and tasty cuisine. Alongside the artistic content, the focus is on cultural exchange, social activism and meaningful debate.
For Oslo World’s 2018 theme of Freedom, Station Beirut presents NextStopDamascus, featuring a program that seeks to capture the vital energy and cultural richness of Syria at a time when its artists are most fragile, perceptions are most clouded and the need for alternative perspectives most pressing. The art exhibition Oslo World Exhibition: Relentless Images features Syrian and international visual artists, and is co-curated by Studio Khaled Barakeh in Berlin, in collaboration with the online platform SYRIA Cultural Index. The exhibition runs all week at Kulturhuset in Oslo, with a special full-day takeover program on Saturday Nov 3rd. We will wrap NextStopDamascus in Oslo with a live electro set by Shkoon at Jaeger.
