In collaboration with Vanderbilt University’s “Arts, and the Middle East: Building Bridges
to the Global and the Local” 2022-2023 initiative COOP Gallery is pleased to present
“Abracadabra” video works by three Middle Eastern female artists. The goal of the
Middle East art initiative is to raise awareness of the Middle East and connect the
Nashville population with the many Middle Eastern communities who live and work in Tennessee. In this program our goal is to present an articulated look into the many cultures, traditions, and social complexities present within the Middle East and its diaspora. Through art, we wish to address issues regarding Middle Eastern internal relations and relations between the Middle East and the United States.
Abracadabra brings together three artists: Saudi Arabian-based movement artist Sarah Brahim, the Israeli media artist Ronnie Karfiol, and the Iranian Artist Laleh Mehran.
Abracadabra is on view June 4 – 25, 2002 at Coop Gallery in the Wedgewood Houston Art District. Coop is Nashville’s longest established, artist-run project space and curatorial collective, established in 2010.
Coop is located at:
507 Hagan St
Nashville, TN 37203
