UPDATE: The tour has reached full capacity. If we receive cancellations, tickets will automatically be released on this page.

Presented by the Asian/Pacific/American Institute at NYU.

Join researcher and curator Nadine Fattaleh (A/P/A Institute Fall 2024 Student Artist-in-Residence) for a special tour of Materials of Solidarity. Fattaleh will present an overview of the exhibition, and lead attendees through a participatory exercise.

In the age of digital circulation, Palestinian protest images have been subject to censorship. The medium of print has returned to combat repression, with the increased production of posters, flyers, zines, and pamphlets circulated at demonstrations, community gatherings, and university encampments. Materials of Solidarity echoes the movement’s insistence: “the more they try to silence us, the louder we will be.” The collectively assembled postcards, paired with documentation of the intimate reflections of anonymous contributors, are a palimpsest of our community and its protest of the ongoing, mediatized genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza.

NYU campus access guidelines: This is an in-person event, open to the public. Registration is required and space is limited. Non-NYU guests may be asked to present a government-issued photo ID. NYU guests must present their NYU ID.
