This incredible lineup of creative contributors began as a call-out to friends and colleagues of Aya's amongst her work as a cultural strategist, producer and curator for grassroots initiatives and non-profits, before it snowballed into something with a much wider remit. It was important to the book's editor to have a range of figures to contribute across disciplines. "Many of the book's contributors are Palestinian," she says, "the rest are steadfast allies."
The project's latest iteration opened on 31 May at Oakville Galleries on Lake Ontario... It is part of an exhibition of the Kabakovs' work at the gallery, Between Heaven and Earth.
