DESCRIPTION:What city will be the next center of advanced art? We've heard
  this question before. But circa 1941\, with Paris occupied\, the answer 
 was undecided-and in Baghdad\, artists\, soldiers\, and former prisoners 
 of war (who were themselves also artists and soldiers)\, grappled with wh
 at seemed to be a civilizational question about terms for keeping the cit
 y and the self open for avant-garde work. Crucially\, with British forces
  occupying Iraq at the same time\, declaring a cause of freedom while sup
 pressing Iraqi political activity\, the immanence of incarceration proved
  a salient factor in creative practice: a theme\, a shape\, a fate. Worki
 ng backwards from the 1953 maquette for a monument to the Unknown Politic
 al Prisoner devised by the great Iraqi modernist Jewad Selim\, the talk d
 elves into problems of form\, freedom\, and futurity arising from occupie
 d Iraq\, 1941 to 1945\, under a threat of enemy alienation that we might 
 recognize as a 20th century condition.\n\nAnneka Lenssen is Associate Pro
 fessor of Global Modern Art at the University of California\, Berkeley. H
 er publications include a monograph on modern painting and politics in Sy
 ria (2020) and a co-edited volume\, Modern Art in the Arab World: Primary
  Documents (2018). This talk is drawn from a current book project.\n\nFre
 e and open to the public.
