On 11 November 2022, Gallery HINTERLAND hosted multidisciplinary artist Nazira Karimi (founder of MATA, an all female artist collective based in Almaty, Kazakhstan) and human rights expert Koen De Feyter (professor of Public International Law at the University of Antwerp) for a conversation exploring connections between arts, human rights, and censorship with special focus on freedom of expression in Central Asia.
The conversation was part of our course on Artistic Freedom and moderated by Marilyn Volkman, our Artistic Program Manager.
