AICA (L’Association internationale des critiques d’art/International Association of Art Critics) Turkey is organizing an online event titled “In the Ruins: Rethinking Artistic Creation and Freedom in Times of Destruction” on Friday, August 16.

Two leading intellectuals, American philosopher Judith Butler and Palestinian writer Adania Shibli, will talk about the role of art and artists, intellectuals, and the function of artistic freedom and its lack in times of destruction, the importance of speaking truth against the power, and the possibility of creating support networks in this atmosphere.

Focusing on the destruction of Palestinian cultural institutions and attacking artists as part of the decades-long war on Palestine, as well as the exclusion from institutions of those who take sides on Palestine, they will discuss artistic engagement and expression under the conditions of destruction and ongoing war.

This event is organized by as part of “Learning from Each Other: Building a Solidarity Network in the Art and Cultural Sector in Times of Disasters,” a series of talks supported by AICA International.
