Foam Fotografiemuseum Amsterdam is hosting the book launch event for the Middle East Archive's significant new publication, _Women/ النساء_. This collaborative photography book brings together the work of 72 photographers, spanning both archival and contemporary collections from across the Middle East and North Africa and beyond. The publication's central aim is to foreground the everyday presence of women in the region, presenting them as individuals rather than symbols, thereby acknowledging the complexity and diversity of their lives. _Women/ النساء_ features a wide range of photographic approaches and perspectives, intentionally avoiding a single narrative to emphasize the plurality and contradictions within women's lives. It highlights the multifaceted roles women play in shaping family life, social structures, and cultural memory, while also recognizing how these roles evolve across different times and places. The book creates space for visibility and complexity in representation, including contributions from prominent figures such as Myriam Boulos, Farah Al Qasimi, Rania Matar, and many others, alongside commissioned texts by curator Romaisa Baddar, photographer Yumna Al Arashi, and editor Maya Moumne.
Foam welcomes you to the book launch event. Further ticketing details are not specified on this page. Visitors are encouraged to check official Foam channels for any specific event access or booking information.
