This year's Gateway exhibition curated by Odessa Warren and Carine Harmand explores connections between the Arab world and Latin America. The show brings together contemporary artists who open windows into the flows and exchanges between these two regions. Titled Otra Orilla (English: Another Shore), the exhibition will feature works by Emilia Estrada, Alia Farid, Francisca Khamis Giacoman, and Ishtar Yasin Gutierrez, as well as a new commission by Mandy El-Sayegh. Often reflecting on diasporic experiences, the artists map landscapes, historical and narratives, weaving personal and collective memory. Through moving image, textile and installations, they explore how shared political and poetic imaginaries underpin the parallels and intersections between Latin American and Arab contexts.
