NAIZA KHAN EXHIBITION SIDNEY COOPER GALLERY
19/10/2013
The main exhibition on display at the Sidney Cooper Gallery was by Naiza Khan, The Manora Project traces Khan's recent engagements with the disrupted landscape of Karachi city and her long-term investigation of the Island of Manora. Making works of art that are at once lyrical and fiercely engaged, Khan stretches the definition of political art by articulating in the richest possible terms the relationship between subjectivity and politics.
The exhibition is free to attend and the beautiful sculptures made from brass show elements of modern technology, weapons of war and the environment. The photography this evening was to capture the drinks reception and the art work on display before the guests went to the Marlowe Theatre.
