Younes Atbane’s Untitled 14KM examines how Arab identity is conceived in modern art in a multidisciplinary performance at AUC’s Falaki theater from 8.30 pm. An Arab-Andalusian poet, the director of a museum of contemporary art, a curator, and a contemporary artist join forces to talk about the issue of Arab identity.

Beyond Locality: The Thatcher Effect looks at how the neoliberal policies of former UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher affected societies all over the world.

The one-hour show starts at 10pm at Rawabet Art Space.
