When French Art Looks at the Gulf

In A Group Picture From 1980s Palestine

In 1980s rural Palestine, a wedding photograph began with a stage: rugs and decorations borrowed between neighbours, built to be taken apart again. Artist Inass Yassin returns to this vanished scene in her first solo exhibition, In a Group Picture, at Iyad Qanazea Gallery Abu Dhabi.
