Future Archaeology
Future Archaeology draws a picture of social and political movements throughout Asia and the Middle East.
Overview
Future Archaeology, opening just shy of November, is an exciting showcase of work from early and mid-career artists. Future Archaeology pinpoints moments of disruption, taking the somewhat antiquated discipline of archaeology and transforming it into a complex picture of social and political movements throughout Asia and the Middle East. The big themes driving this show are migration, cultural displacement and appropriation.
Future Archaeology will present work from Léuli Eshraghi, Nathan Beard, Deanna Hitti, Abdullah M.I. Syed, Andy Mullen, and Claudia Nicholson. Each artist will grapple with a unique sociopolitical phenomenon, whether it is the widespread impact of deforestation in Central America of the fraught concept of masculinity in Pakistan. One of the aims of the exhibition is to rouse cross-cultural and transnational conversation.
