Gaza artists announce launch of the Gaza Biennale – "a collective event, a growing network, and perhaps a movement."

gazabiennale.org
We hereby announce from here, from the land of Gaza, the launch of the Gaza Biennale, with the participation of over 40 artists, to affirm that Palestinian art pierces through all besieged spaces. No war can stop the dreams of dreamers, and no mechanisms of domination extinguish the light in the hearts and minds of creators. On behalf of all the participating artists, including those who, due to war and geographical division, are unable to join us physically, we affirm the following: 1) Through art, we resist all forms of genocide and oppression. 2) We continue to give and create, despite all obstacles and challenges. 3) Through art, we transcend barriers, ensuring that the voices of Palestinian artists reach the world, reaffirming Palestinian’s right to speak and be heard. 4) The Biennale represents the starting point for collective artistic work, uniting many parties and institutions that believe in the justice of our cause and the power of art. 5) The Biennale emerged despite dispersion, displacement, and suffering endured by artists, gathering to fill a need—for invention, dignity and purpose, we present a vision for a better future. This Biennale is a call to the world, to artists and cultural institutions, to stand in solidarity with Palestinian artists, support them, and work together to ensure that their voices and stories remain present, and that their works remain a testament to struggle and resilience, lighting a path for humanity in the most dire times. This biennale proposes new rules of engagement within the context of art. The stakes are too high to wait for the appraisal from some established framework. At the same time we are witnessing the failure of institutional frameworks to prevent the desecration of human life. So from these cracks and disingenuous policies, we are stepping forward on our own accord, creating work that speaks with a force that cannot be denied. Each artist, each artwork, each exhibition exists despite the impossible reality from which it is born, as its material forms emerge in its defiance.

In Gaza, floods caused by heavy rainfall devastated thousands of families living in displaced tents in southern Gaza. Meanwhile, UNRWA says that all aid entering Gaza is less than 6% of what is needed.

Israeli occupation military spokesman said that tonight’s aggression on Beirut’s Dahyeh will be “especially” destructive.

Get humiliated on the front, destroy buildings and neighborhoods.

This is Zionism.

There’s like 12 more IDF evacuation orders for Dahieh, Beirut tonight. I’ve lost count of how many there have been but it’s easily in the lower hundreds. An entire historical area of Beirut is being annihilated on a quasi-daily basis.

please follow my friend Mo in Gaza. Despite deprivation, frightening missile attacks and lack of food and water, Mo still devotes his life to helping stray cats, while he seeks food for his family at 100x usual prices. Please re-quote to raise his profile on bluesky.

The United States has oligarchs now.
Not merely rich people with more personal influence on politics than poorer people have, but a few extremely rich people closely connected to the national leader who act in government-like roles despite never being elected or nominated to any official position.
