Summary: Published in conjunction with the exhibition by the same name held at Amman, Jordan, Darat al Funun from 4 November 2014-23 April 2015. Includes texts by Adila Laïdi-Hanieh and Ahmad Zatari, as well as an interview with the artist by Yazid Anani. The exhibition's title is a poem by Gregory Corso that he recited in front of Jacir in Rome. Since the early 1990s, Emily Jacir has created works about transformation, questions of translation, resistance, and the logic of the archive. With restrained formal means she makes visible silenced historical narratives, with a focus on her own political, historical, and social relationships. The book presents a fully illustrated survey of her oeuvre, including film and video works, installations, interventions, audio works, and sculpture. From 'Change/Exchange' (1998) to 'Untitled (SOLIDARIDAD)' (2013), the book contains reproductions of key works such as 'ex libris' (2010-2012), commissioned for dOCUMENTA (13), as well as several rarely seen works.
