More DescriptionUNSW Galleries presents the exhibition 'Enough ¿¿¿¿ Khalas: Contemporary Australian Muslim artists', 4 May - 14 July, 2018.This exhibition unapologetically explores the contemporary Australian Muslim experience through a diverse series of artworks by sixteen award-winning Muslim artists. Offering a creative response to modern-day Orientalism, 'Enough ¿¿¿¿ Khalas' questions the recent politicisation of the Muslim identity as informed by the so-called 'War on Terror'. Within this fraught socio-political climate, the exhibiting artists express that many Australian Muslims have had enough; moreover, they have decided that they are enough, 'khalas'.This accompanying exhibition catalogue features essays from co-curators Associate Professor Phillip George and Nur Shkembi, as well as guest writers Dr Uros Cvoro and Dr Chrisoula Lionis.
