Now through December 20 @ Recess Art, 46 Washington Avenue, Brooklyn, NY

Art Exhibition - “From Gaza to the World”

Titled “From Gaza to the World,” the New York edition of the Gaza Biennale brings together 25 of the more than 50 artists included in the global show, many of whom are still based in Gaza or recently displaced.

Open through December 20 at @recessart in Brooklyn, the works on view span a variety of mediums and styles. Nearly all of the art had to be digitally reproduced — though not as simple “copies,” in the words of the organizers, but rather “displaced objects … signs for a message that has traveled across borders and the siege.”

“We are responding to a condition of displacement that is now a reality all over the world,” said a spokesperson for the Forbidden Museum of Jabal Al Risan, founded in the Occupied West Bank, which launched the Biennale in 2024. “For a long time now, we have been asking the art world to engage with art being made under genocide. What value will it place on a displaced object born under every restriction imaginable?”
