Walid Raad Walid Raad (Ra'ad) (Arabic: وليد رعد) (born 1967 in Chbanieh, Lebanon) is a contemporary media artist. The Atlas Group is a fictional collective, the work of which is produced by Walid Raad. His works to date include video, photography and literary essays. All, in one way or another, deal with the contemporary history of Lebanon with particular emphasis on the wars in Lebanon between 1975 to 1991. The work is also often concerned with the representation of traumatic events of collective historical dimensions; and the ways film, video, and photography function as documents of physical and psychological violence.[1] He is also a member of the Arab Image Foundation. Raad received his BFA from the Rochester Institute of Technology in 1989. He went on to complete his MA and Ph.D. in Cultural and Visual Studies at the University of Rochester in 1993 and 1996, respectively. His works have been exhibited at Documenta 11 (Kassel), The Venice Biennale (Venice), The Whitney Biennial (New York), The Ayloul Festival (Beirut, Lebanon), Home Works (curated by Ashkal Alwan, Beirut, Lebanon) and numerous other festivals in Europe, the Middle East, and North America. He lives and works in New York, where he is currently an associate professor at the Cooper Union School of Art. Contents Work[edit] Raad's video works include Talaeen a Junuub (Up to the South) (Salloum/Raad, 60 min., 1993), I Think It Would Be Better If I Could Weep (6 min.18sec., 2000) a collection of video shorts titled The Dead Weight of a Quarrel Hangs (Raad, 18 min., 1996–1999), and Hostage: The Bachar Tapes (Raad/Bachar), 18 min., 2000). Mixed-media projects include The Atlas Group: Documents from The Atlas Group Archive (1999 to the present), The Loudest Muttering Is Over: Documents from The Atlas Group Archive (2001 to the present), and My Neck Is Thinner Than A Hair (2004). He also founded The Atlas Group in 1999, an imaginary foundation whose objective is to research and document Lebanon‘s contemporary history. The Altas Group is primarily presented through lectures that include films, photography exhibitions, videos, and a variety of documents from the group‘s archives which contain authored, found, and newly produced files. More recently, certain sections of the archive have been the object of a number of installations in museum spaces.[2] Under the name of Atlas Group, Raad made a series of books published by Walther König: a sort of imaginary collection of Dr. Fakhouri's found notebooks reports on Lebanon's 14 year war. As a member of the Arab Image Foundation, Walid Raad has co-curated with Akram Zaatari the exhibition titled Mapping Sitting: On portraiture and Photography, an investigation in Arab photography and its relationship to questions of identity. In June 2009, "The Atlas Group (1989-2004)" exhibition opened at the Reina Sofia in Madrid. Undertaken by Raad, the project aimed to research and document the contemporary history of Lebanon, specifically the years between 1975 and 1991. The exhibition - consisting of installations, videos, and photographs - attempts to draw awareness to the various ways in which history is told, organized, and sometimes manipulated.[3] Raad has collaborated with Chinese American artist David Diao,[4] and their work was shown in fall 2012 at Paula Cooper Gallery. Raad is an organizer of Gulf Labor, a coalition of artists and activists organized to bring awareness to issues surrounding the living and working conditions on Abu Dhabi's Saadiyat Island.

Predavanje Walida Raada: Kopam po stvarima koje bih mogao poreći Nakon nastupa na Eurokazu 2002. performansom / predavanjem Najglasnije mrmljanje je završeno: dokumenti iz arhive Atlas grupe, Raad ponovno dolazi u Zagreb. Walid Raad je umjetnik svjetskog značaja čiji su najvažniji radovi dio projekta The Atlas Groupkoji je trajao 15 godina, od 1989. do 2004, a u kojem je tematizirao suvremenu povijest Libanona. Projekt je kombinirao izložbe i performanse / predavanja, format kojemu se i danas često vraća, a pobliže je istraživao pitanja dokumentiranja u medijskoj umjetnosti kroz socijalne, psihološke i fenomenološke oblike, mogućnosti i ograničenja kreativne prakse. Istraživanja su bila fokusirana na povijesne i fiktivne događaje vezane uz rat u Libanonu prošlih trideset godina. U novom projektu Povijest moderne i suvremene arapske umjetnosti kojeg započinje 2007. godine problematizira ideje vodilje moderne i suvremene arapske umjetnosti (pri čemu se poziva na pisca i umjetnika Jalala Toufica). Kako kreativnost umjetnika, pisaca ili mislilaca može pomoći promišljanju, senzibiliziranju i razumijevanju nasilja u libanonskoj prošlosti i arapskom svijetu. Koji materijalni i nematerijalni fenomeni ugrožavaju građane, gradove kao i kulturu i tradiciju. Walid Raad autor je multimedijalnih projekata i knjiga, dobitnik brojnih nagrada, a njegovi su radovi izlagani na prestižnim manifestacijama kao npr: Documenta 11 i Documenta 13 u Kasselu, Venecijanski bijenale, Festival d'automne Pariz. Samostalne izložbe imao je u muzejima: Hamburger Bahnhof u Berlinu, muzej Reina Sofia u Madridu, Whitechapel Art Gallery u Londonu, Homeworks u Bejrutu i drugdje. Radovi mu se nalaze u kolekcijama muzeja: MoMa, Guggenheim, Centre Pompidou, Whitney Museum of American Art, Kunsthaus Zürich, te u brojnim umjetničkim centrima u Europi, Sjevernoj Americi i na Bliskom istoku. Redoviti je profesor umjetnosti na učilištu The Cooper Union (New York, SAD). Nakon nastupa na Eurokazu 2002. performansom / predavanjem Najglasnije mrmljanje je završeno: dokumenti iz arhive Atlas grupe, Raad ponovno dolazi u Zagreb gdje će ovoga puta govoriti o svome kontinuiranom radu na projektu Kopam po stvarima koje bih mogao poreći: povijest moderene umjetnosti u arapskom svijetu (Scratching on Things I Could Disavow: A History of Modern Art in the Arab World) započetom 2007. godine koji u fokus stavlja infrastrukturu vizualnih umjetnosti na Bliskom istoku. Raad će govoriti i o novim umjetničkim ekonomijama, tekstovima Jalala Toufica, te o svojim vlastitim radovima u zadnjih 6 godina. U kontekstu u kojem je kulturni turizam postao instrumentom ekonomskog rasta i moći, Raadov se projekt naslanja na ideološku, privrednu i političku dimenziju ovoga fenomena, a koji se, na primjeru Otoka sreće (Happiness Island) u Abu Dhabiju gdje nastaju inačice Louvrea i Guggenheima, manifestira kao vidno upitan. Predavanje će se održati u MSU u subotu, 11. siječnja od 18 sati.Tweet
