EXHIBITION – November 28 – December 13, 2019, Concordia’s Curating and Public Scholarship Lab (CaPSL).
“(Re)Viewing the Syrian War” addresses the recurring questions that exhibition curator Abood Hamad was often asked about his experiences as a Syrian refugee and as a humanitarian aid worker during the war. Through a collection of personal stories, objects, images, and videos taken during his work in Damascus, Homs, and other parts of Syria between 2010 and 2016, and following his arrival in Montreal in 2017, the exhibition challenges misconceptions about Syria and the war.
