Ala Ebtekar
In Conversation with Susette Min

Tuesday, April 24, 2018 at 12:10-1:30 pm in Wellman 229

Please join us in welcoming Ala Ebtekar, an artist and educator who works between his native San Francisco Bay Area and Tehran, Iran. Ebtekar will be in conversation with Professor Susette Min about his multifaceted art practice of painting, drawing, installation, text, photography, and public projects over the past fifteen years, and what it means
to make art in an age of uncertainty, amidst war, conflict, and social injustices. The conversation will also focus on his pedagogical initiatives including Art, Social Space and Public Discourse, a three-year Stanford global initiative on art and civic life, that promotes ongoing critical frameworks, conversations, newly commissioned art projects, and explorations of various cultural productions and intellectual traditions.

Co-sponsored by ART HISTORY, ASIAN AMERICAN STUDIES DEPARTMENT, and the MIDDLE EAST/SOUTH ASIA STUDIES PROGRAM
