Il 13 febbraio torna a Modena Taysir Batniji⤵️
“Archives of Gaza, Archives from Gaza. A story in pictures”
📅 Date set for Friday, 13 February 2026, at 18:00 in Modena (Palazzina dei Giardini Ducali) for a meeting with Palestinian artist Taysir Batniji, who will present his new book: “You will find nothing alive like its own image”.
This event forms part of Abitare il tempo (Inhabiting Time), the first solo exhibition in an Italian institution dedicated to Taysir Batniji. The show explores how the artist engages with everyday objects and traces, seeking to heal pain and trauma.
🎙️ The artist will be in conversation with Maria Chiara Rioli (scholar of Palestinian history, UniMoRe's delegate for Peace and Social Equity, and JERUS-IT-ARTS project co-coordinator), to discuss the history of Gaza through images, in a dialogue between memory, photography, and resistance.
🎟️ Free admission.
