Since 2004, Bidoun has served as a platform for new questions, images, and ideas about the Middle East. Bidoun’s activities fall in three primary areas: publishing, educational, and curatorial. To date, the organization’s projects have included a range of pursuits: curatorial initiatives, educational programs, artist commissions, talks, tours, performances, books, an itinerant library, and an online archive of avant-garde media. Bidoun engages audiences in a nuanced and historically-informed consideration of the Middle East’s contemporary art scene.
