new additions to the blog
6Plus is a collective of artists living in the US who have been trying to develop projects in Palestine in collaboration with 7 Palestinian women artists. Two exhibitions are scheduled for September at the International Center in Bethlehem, and December at the Sakakini in Ramallah. The December exhibit is also intended as the conclusion of a collaboration with a group of young women from a refugee camp close to Bethlehem.
The two venues are still determined to continue working, even in the face of the Israeli government’s brutal lockdown of Gaza, attacks on Lebanon and closing of many checkpoints all along the West Bank. This blog now features a blogroll with some key sites providing day to day updates on the situation in Lebanon and Gaza, as well as hopefully dispatches, forwarded letters and messages from friends in the region.
