Artist Talk & Slide Presentation



Artist Talk with Taraneh Hemami

& Slide Presentation with Sana Makhoul



Saturday June 16, 2007 @ 2pm, FREE



Artist Taraneh Hemami has been exhibiting and teaching in the Bay Area since 1991. Her

work has ranged from large, personal paintings to intimate book arts, from sculptures to

installations, from performances to digital sound pieces. Join Hemami for a discussion

about her new work and exhibition currently on view, Most Wanted. This is followed by a

slide presentation by Sana Makhoul entitled In the Middle of..., which looks at the

visual images used throughout history at times of war to impact people and construct

stereotypes. Makhoul specifically examines the misrepresentation of and stereotyping of

Arabs and Muslims in many public arenas, from television and cinema to newspapers and the

fine arts. This talk will examine these images and how contemporary artists are

addressing them.
