3.⁠ ⁠War Games - Annabel Daou

The Cluster F Theory Podcast - A podcast by Timotheus Vermeulen and Gia Milinovich - Thursdays

Categories:

Artist Annabel Daou was born and raised in Beirut, Lebanon, she is now living in New York. Her work takes place at the intersection of writing, speech, and non-verbal modes of communication. Her paper- and tape-based constructions, sound pieces, and performances explore the language of power, intimacy, and self-encounter across time and space. Her works involve friends, acquaintances, and random strangers. She has asked people questions and given them imperatives. She has read people’s palms – and she's read the Declaration of Independence. There are few artists whose practice resonates more with me, makes me understand what I have long felt; and few who have the power to change my perspective entirely, make me see and experience the world in ways I would have never even intuited before.Annabel’s work has been exhibited around the world, from Beirut to Baltimore to Munich and from New York to Istanbul to Enschede. Her newest project is called War Games, in which she asks people who grew up in war zones about the games they used to invent as kids to cope with their experiences.https://annabeldaou.com/War Games viewing room (sign-up required, free): https://tanjawagner.com/viewing-room/annabel-daou-war-games/Annabel Daou’s previous exhibitions at Galerie Tanja Wagner: https://tanjawagner.com/artists/annabel-daou/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/annabeldaou/NOTES:'Which Side Are You On?' https://annabeldaou.com/Which-side-are-you-onTim's article on 'Which Side Are You On?': https://www.metamodernism.com/2012/06/19/which-side-are-you-on/The Cluster F Theory Podcast is edited by Julian Mayers at Yada Yada.
