Iman Issa | Heritage Studies

30.04.–28.05.2016

For her first exhibition with carlier | gebauer, Iman Issa will present recent works from her ongoing series Heritage Studies. Begun in 2015, the series derives its name from a field of academic and applied inquiry that relates to the understanding and use of history. Rather than proposing a stable reading of history, heritage studies instead examine dynamic sets of relationships—between cultures, sites, and artifacts—to articulate their relevance today.
