Double Exposure
Middle Eastern Rooftops

Block Magazine in collaboration with Makor Gallery of the 92nd St Y presents a multimedia group exhibition



Curated by Block Magazine.

Double Exposure is a method of simultaneously examining light, time and space. The white walls of the gallery and the white pages of the magazine will be folded together to expose the rooftop and its panoramic views. The Middle Eastern rooftop is offered as a paradigm of the conflicting realities between urban design, gendered gazes and urban turmoil.
