    Under the glare of the moon: Aesthetic Lineages of Revolt – Adam HajYahia and Haitham Haddad

    Under the glare of the moon: Aesthetic Lineages of Revolt

    We are thrilled to announce our first printed publication, Under the glare of the moon: Aesthetic Lineages of Revolt written by Adam HajYahia with an accompanying artwork by Haitham Haddad.

    “Using wit, performative gestures, embodied articulations, song and encrypted protest chants, the streets of Palestine have been producing a revolutionary language and practice that is consistent and innovative, formulated within a persistent tradition of the oppressed. This revolutionary practice’s intuitive nature and aesthetic cogency are seldom recognised as a climacteric part of a political lineage. Yet, time and again, they demonstrate how inseparable the aesthetic and the political are. It is true that, in our case, this lineage is traced in Palestine’s colonial context, but it also extends beyond – forming alliances and assemblages with other communities fighting violent and extractive structures of power…The streets continue to be the primary battlefield where orders are fractured and alienated communities are united, but, ultimately, we return there each time with the yearning that this time it will be the last call to get free.”

    The publication was realized with the support of The Mosaic Rooms on the occasion of the exhibition In the shade of the sun
