Interdisciplinary event in Beirut, 12 - 20 April 2008. Lectures, panels, exhibitions, screenings.
Feb 2008The fourth edition of the Home Works forum will take place from 12 to 20 April 2008 in different venues around Beirut. As usual, it will be an interdisciplinary event featuring lectures, panels, exhibitions, film and video screenings, and publications.
As a title, the term "Home Works" suggests an intertwining of public and private spheres, the outside world of work and the inside space of home. In referring to the exercises, lessons and research problems worked out by students repetitively and in solitude, "Home Works" implies a process of internal excavation, digging and burrowing deeper all the while constructing and accumulating new practices.
This year, the Forum proposes for thematic axes: disaster, catastrophe, recomposing desire and sex practices.
