Middle Eastern Art Gallery

In the Paradise Lost series Gaza-born, visual artist Hazem Harb assembles fleeting glimpses into the material and natural landscape of his homeland from which he remains displaced. Through his ubiquitous process of contemporary collage, he presents a dystopic vision of paradise, evacuating images of Palestine’s architecture and agriculture from their consignment to archives and hinting at the region’s underlying complexities through juxtaposition against more recent structural impositions

We are delighted to announce that several works by Hazem Harb, including collages and an installation, will be exhibited as part of The Global (e) Resistance, an exhibition that unveils for the first time the works of more than sixty artists gathered over the past decade, most of them from the South (Africa, Middle East, Asia, America Latin) and sets itself the ambition of examining contemporary strategies of resistance. 

 “an artist lives many human experiences.” Harb tries to capture those experiences in his work.
