Curatorial

K Off x Dream City 2022

K Off is the Video Art section of the Gabes Cinema Fen Festival dedicated to early-career Tunisian artists. Each year an early stage curator is given carte blanche to feature artists using the moving image as their medium.

This year, K OFF is exported to Dreamcity, in the medina of Tunis, and places artists at the heart of this budding scene to be seen.

Merging the first and second editions, presented in 2021 and 2022 , K OFF x Dream City presents the work of eight young Tunisian artists and represents a fostering of a true plurality of perspectives and approaches. It takes as its anchor these artists, their individual practices and enhances the emergence of an art scene where the reality, and experience of each artist is the inspiration.

 

The 2021 and 2022 selections proposed respectively by the curators Salma Kossemtini and Kenza Jemmali will be presented.

 

The audience of Dream City will be able to view the works of 8 Tunisian artists including:

Ahmed Ben Nessib, Achref Bettaieb, Nada Chamli, Ghassen Chraifa, Syrine Eloued, Rim Harrabi, Wafa Lazhari, Toxic Club
