There is no region of the world from which we receive more media coverage than the Middle East. The images are of places completely destroyed by war. Some may still remember that the cradle of our culture lies between the Euphrates and Tigris. However, it is nearly impossible for most people to imagine that between bomb attacks and ruins there exists young, contemporary art which continues to develop, which both attaches importance to the preservation of its culture and seeks connection to the Western world.
