ASPECT V.14: Middle East

ASPECT: The Chronicle of New Media Art is pleased to announce the release of ASPECT Volume 14: Middle East. In this volume, ASPECT once again explores new territory, entering an area so culturally conflicted that the very term "Middle East" is disputed as a holdover from colonialism. The issue presents nine artists' perspectives from both inside and outside of the region. Not only focused on the political, religious, and cultural dissent, these works ruminate on language, food, ritual, media, power, fear, humor, and beauty.

The volume includes work by Maayan Amir and Ruti Sela, Anya Belkina, Wafaa Bilal, Teresa Diehl, Mounir Fatmi, Sabine Gruffat, Jon Kessler, Roee Rosen, and Larissa Sansour, and optional audio commentary by Bill Arning, Carol Becker, David Dinnell, Tarek Elhaik, Alanna Heiss, Roee Rosen, Manon Slome, and Nicole Triche.
