Tent. Gent, Stedelijk Museum voor Actuele Kunst (S.M.A.K.), 02-12-2013, 26-02-2012. - Monografie toont werk van de Syrische kunstenaar Mekhitar Garabedian (Aleppo 1977). - The exhibition consists of various works from the last five years, several new productions and a first look at Garabedian's 'library'. In his work, Garabedian examines the position of the individual and the development of identity in contemporary society shaped by migratory movements. Using widely divergent media, he examines how the rupture caused by migration continues to determine the present and how multilingualism shapes the position and psyche of the migrant. Just as his personal history is layered, Garabedian's discourse reveals numerous references to literature, music, philosophy and the visual arts
