Wednesday 21 Feb 2024 19:00 - 21:00 @ Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten - Schip Sarphatistraat 470, 1018 GW Amsterdam Free entrance, RSVP here : https://lnkd.in/emcKPxXp Donations welcome * 🇵🇸 (Unseen) War and Conflict is a two-day forum and film programme that focuses on the city of Amsterdam and aims to show the complexities of how conflict and war are experienced. We will share, listen and discuss different ways of oppression that have been normalised and even institutionalised in society, giving light to the -most of the times unseen- inner struggles of how communities and individuals have been dealing with political and social crises in their daily lives. This two-day programme started as an initiative of some of the artists participating in the Refresh Amsterdam #2: War and Conflict exhibition together with some Rijksakademie resident artists and team, as a response to the institutional invisibilisation of the many ongoing human crises still occurring outside the centres of (mediatic) power. Questions on the position of art-thinking and making as activism in front of socio-ecological crisis, the agency of images and imagination as critical stance of mediatic manipulation, as well as how war and conflict are continuously embodied and experienced in the temporal and spatial distance of the territory in conflict, will be addressed. This event is part of the public programme of Refresh Amsterdam #2: War and Conflict. This edition of Refresh Amsterdam addresses the impact of international war and conflict on the contemporary city, particularly its inhabitants and social structures. Amsterdam has long viewed itself as a city of freedom and a place of refuge. But what does war do to a city and our social intercourse? Why do certain wars and conflict situations generate more solidarity than others? *Door donations and drink/food sales during the programme will be destined to cover emergency medical care to pregnant women, the sick and seriously injured in Gaza, through Doctors without Borders. https://lnkd.in/eEGbnBCb

Over ons
"Faces & Places", is where storytelling and journalism meet. It's a media platform created by Farouk Ebaiss, a visual artist, and Micha Adarian, a journalist. Our goal is simple: giving a spotlight to stories of communities and minorities hidden in the dark shadow of modern media. Amplifying unheard voices and pushing through the depth of media corruption to bring to the surface what really matter - the people and diversity. We looked around in all media outlets, and we saw a lot of faces... faces being defended and faces Just For Sale, faces being cursed and others being showcased, and some are just a number.. a statistic.. not even a full case. We saw a lot of places too.. places being destroyed by war and places being celebrated. Places being ignored and others being protected. But after seeing it all, we still couldn't hear or see or tell: "where is US?!" in these stories.. in the media. And that's how and that's why "Faces & Places" were created." "All stories matter" : for every one feel unseen, unheard. If your voice have no sounds.. just echo! Do you feel that your community is misrepresented in the public eye? Is your story being ignored or maybe camouflaged by misinformation? Do you feel not as a priority to the narrative of today's media? Is your voice being muted every time you hear the news? If your answer is YES to all the above questions, please contact us!
