You are warmly invited to join the public guided tours of the exhibition Festival of (In)gratitude by internationally acclaimed Lebanese-American artist Walid Raad, taking place on Saturday, 22 November 2025, at 11:00 and 17:00.
Both tours will be led by the artist and conducted in English.
The exhibition Festival of (In)gratitude explores how wars, political tensions, and social transformations shape our bodies, memories, and spaces. Through photography, video works, installations, and performances, Raad investigates how histories are created and rewritten—who tells them, whom they exclude, and how they are reshaped by power, imagination, and forgetting.
At the Museum of Modern Art, the artist will present works from his acclaimed projects The Atlas Group (1989–2004), Scratching on Things I Could Disavow, and Sweet Talk: Beirut (Commissions), complemented by new works created in dialogue with the archives of the Museum of Modern Art, Ljubljana.
Curator: Zdenka Badovinac
Exhibition opening: Friday, 21 November 2025, at 8 p.m.
Admission to the guided tours is included in the museum ticket. No registration required.
