SUMMARY:Book Launch and Discussion: Keep Your Eye On The Wall
DESCRIPTION:How many ways are there of looking at a wall?\nIn a striking ne
 w book featuring specially commissioned images\, six renowned Palestinian 
 and one German artist-photographers interpret the ‘Separation Barrier’
  that Israel continues to erect in the West Bank with impunity\, despite i
 ts violation of international law. The results\, with accompanying texts b
 y noted writers (and a foreword by distinguished author and human rights a
 ctivist Raja Shehadeh)\, are by turns surprising\, poignant\, disturbing a
 nd humorous.\n\nKeep Your Eye on the Wall: Palestinian Landscapes was publ
 ished last month by Saqi. The photographers whose work appears in the book
  are: Taysir Batniji\, Raed Bawayah\, Rula Halawani\, Noel Jabbour \, Raed
 a Saadeh\, Steve Sabella and Kai Wiedenhoefer.\n\nJoin us for a thought-pr
 ovoking discussion between the book’s editors Olivia Snaije and Mitchell
  Albert and two of the books contributors Malu Halasa\, a London-based cul
 tural critic whose essay on the movement against aestheticising the Wall i
 s featured in the book\, and Berlin-based Steve Sabella\, whose powerful i
 mages convey the fragmented state of the psyche in exile. A selection of i
 mages from Keep Your Eye on the Wall will be screened as well.\n\nOlivia S
 naije is a journalist and editor based in Paris and books editor for Harpe
 r’s Bazaar Art. She was formerly Executive Editor at Alef\, a London-bas
 ed magazine covering Middle Eastern culture.\n\nMitchell Albert is the Pub
 lisher and Commissioning Editor of Garnet / Ithaca Press. Formerly\, he ha
 s been Programme Director of the UK literary development agency Writers’
  Centre Norwich\, Editorial Director of PEN International and Commissionin
 g Editor of Saqi Books.\n\nMalu Halasa is a writer\, editor and curator ba
 sed in London. Her books and exhibitions on Middle Eastern visual culture 
 provide a complex view of the region. Her works include the acclaimed Secr
 et Life of Syrian Lingerie: Intimacy and Design.\n\nSteve Sabella will hav

 onograph on his work will be published in September 2014 by Hatje Cantz /
