Twice Removed photographs from occupied Palestine. Montreal photographer Darren Ell traveled throughout Palestine in 2002 and 2003. His photographs "portraits, threatened landscapes and haunting intimate spaces" address the impact and portent of the Israeli occupation, which despite all negotiations and agreements since 1991 has entered its 38th year. The title of the exhibition, Twice Removed, refers to a very important reality: as in 1948 and 1967, Palestinians are being removed from their homes and their land. 9-30 novembre et 1 decembre.
