L'Orient Des Femmes

Analysis / Interpretation / Press / Source

”It is an anthem to women, a tribute to those who over the centuries have sought to create ways to beautify themselves or simply to exist within a society that has long marginalised them. By their hands, their actions, their tastes and talents, they have given a part of themselves to fabrics and silk or cotton threads, by designing each piece as a work of art.” Hana Al-Banna Chidiac, exhibition curator

Hello,

I am a graduate student at Georgetown University and I am writing to ask about an exhibit the Branly Museum hosted recently called:

"L'Orient des femmes"

I have posted the poster at my thesis web site:

http://www.palestineposterproject.org/poster/lorient-des-femmes

Q: Can you send me any copies of this poster? (We can pay and pay shipping too)

Q: Were Palestinian women's textile/fabrics/clothing included in the exhibit?

Q: Is the exhibit still online anywhere? (Can it be seen/viewed today)

Q: Who is the artist who designed the poster?

Thank you!
