Susan Hefuna "Knowledge is Sweeter than Honey"
Albion
This event has ended.
For Susan Hefuna, every works meaning is fluid, changing to accommodate the vantage point of each new viewer. By studying how audiences in Egypt and Germany responded to her early works, she learned that there is not one truth, but layers of interpretations or perceptions. Since then, Hefuna has continued to make viewers
aware of the cultural codes that govern their interpretive processes, and encouraged them to look beneath the surfaces of their preconceptions.
"Knowledge is Sweeter than Honey," a show of recent works by Egyptian-German artist Susan Hefuna, first solo show in the United States, will present a selection of her mashrabiya screens, drawings, photographs and installation works.
