Listen: Rushdi Anwar Podcast

Rushdi Anwar in conversation with Dr Omar Kholeif, Director of Collections and Senior Curator at the Sharjah Art Foundation, Hawzhin Azeez, Co-Director of the Kurdish Centre for Studies and Professor of Social Anthropology at Stockholm University, and Shahram Khosravi.

Rushdi Anwar was born in Kurdistan and works between Thailand and Australia.

In this episode, Rushdi talks about his work, inspirations and process, as well as discussing his AM10 installation at Amgueddfa Genedlaethol, Caerdydd -The National Museum Cardiff - in detail. Also, members of the Cardiff Kurdish community talk about what Rushdi’s AM10 work means to them.

The At The Table series brings together the voices of the seven AM10 artists alongside those of international curators, artists, historians, thinkers and writers in a series of roundtable discussions. The talks centre on themes and ideas present in the artist’s work and the interwoven relationship between histories and practices, locally to internationally.
