*New podcast: Interview with Beirut based curator Rasha Salti*

http://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/rasha-salti-sonia/capsula

Rasha Salti talks about the methodology of unearthing images that she uses
in her research, and about some of its repercussions. Her postcolonial
analysis of artistic production in modernism favours new narratives about
the former East and West. It also favours the reinterpretation of certain
key dates for the creation, on both sides, of the dialectics of alterity
and for the emergence of underlying leftist discourses. These discourses
reveal another, hidden, story that can be traced through image production
to the recent Arab springs.

Rasha Salti is an independent curator and writer who is based in Beirut and
works between New York, Paris and Toronto. She is currently a programmer
for the Toronto International Film Festival, and from 2004 to 2010 she was
the film programmer and creative director of ArteEast in New York. Her
research projects forge a critical model that rewrites hegemonic narratives
by reflecting on artistic production in the Arab world.

Enjoy!
