About the event

Languages English
Basyma Saad: Realism, Surplus, Mourning
An artist and writer born in Beirut, Basyma Saad will speak on the themes of realism, surplus, and mourning in relation to her recent work.

About this Event

Saad's practice encompasses film, performance and sculpture, alongside essays and fiction. With a dark humour and an emphasis on forms of struggle, she places scenes of intersubjective exchange within their world-historical frames.

Saad's work has been presented and screened at MoMA, The Poetry Project, CPH:DOX, Triangle-Asterides (Marseille), Busan Biennale, Swiss Institute (Rome), Ludwig Forum (Aachen), Cabaret Voltaire (Zurich), and Transmediale. Her most recent film, Congress of Idling Persons, received Special Mention in the New:Vision Award category at CPH:DOX 2022.

She is currently working on a new film titled Permanent Trespass, based on a theatre script of the same name, with Sanja Grozdanić.
