  • Description

    Join the School of Art + Art History for Visiting Artist Lecture: Wafaa Bilal on September 24, 2019. 

    Free and open to the public.

    Iraqi-born artist Wafaa Bilal, Arts Professor at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, is known internationally for provoking dialogue about international politics and internal dynamics through high profile, technologically-driven projects that employ the use of robotics, the internet, and photographic mobile mapping. Bilal’s work is constantly informed by the experience of fleeing his homeland and existing simultaneously in two worlds – his home in the “comfort zone” of the U.S. and his consciousness of the “conflict zone” in Iraq. Using his own body as a medium, Bilal continues to challenge our comfort zone with projects like 3rdi, and Counting..., and Domestic Tension. He lives and works in New York City.
