exhibition preview: ALHAMDU: MUSLIM FUTURISM

  • PS1 Close House 538 S. Gilbert Iowa City, IA 52240 United States (map)

Please join us for a preview of ALHAMDU: MUSLIM FUTURISM, an evolving experiential art exhibition and digital archive created by MIPSTERZ that explores Muslim Futurism—a cultural and artistic aesthetic that learns from frameworks of Afrofuturism and imagines a broader Muslim future free from the oppression of today, set in a utopic tomorrow of our collective creation.

The exhibition will be on view and open to the public July 1 - August 18.

MIPSTERZ is a Muslim arts and culture collective curating, enabling, and amplifying creators of marginalized backgrounds through sound, film, and visual art. They are current artists-in-residence at PS1’s Center for Afrofuturist Studies.

ALHAMDU at PS1 is supported by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, the Ruth Foundation for the Arts, the ArtsMidwest GIG Fund, and the Doris Duke Foundation for Islamic Art’s Building Bridges Program.
