The goal is to bring together members of the sighted community with these talented artisans. While their sight may have darkened and somewhat dimmed\, all of these artists have a visionary quest which shows no limits and takes us forward into the light. “This exhibit will allow the community to expand its imagination on the subject and medium of each work of art\, much like many exhibits do\,” Bethlehem Mayor J. William Reynolds stated\, “but it will also expand our imagination on what is possible when we challenge the idea of what ‘disability’ allows us\, or does not allow us\, to create.”  \nThere will be an artist reception on Sunday\, October 6 from 2:00 to 4:00 PM.  The Rotunda Gallery is located at 10 E. Church Street.  Gallery hours are Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. \nThe exhibition is sponsored by the Bethlehem Fine Arts Commission (www.bfac-lv.org) and the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.

While she explored a wide variety of media and art forms in her early career\, Barrack now devotes herself to comic books. A former member of the Beirut-based Samandal collective\, she is the author of several graphic novels\, editorial cartoons\, and compelling works of comics journalism including Le conteur du Caire\, Beirut\, and Sociologia. Her latest graphic novel\, Dans le taxi\, published by Alifbata Editions\, received the Mahmoud Kahil Award for the best graphic novel from the MENA region (Lebanon\, 2022) and the Grenades Literary Prize (Belgium\, 2022). \nOn September 17\, 2024\, Invisible Publishing will release Barrack Zailaa Rima’s graphic three-volume trilogy\, Beirut\, available in English for the first time in Carla Calargé and Alexandra Gueydan-Turek’s translation. Each volume retraces a visit Rima made to the Lebanese capital while also bearing witness to events unfolding in Beirut. \nBarrack will give a presentation in which she will discuss her own artistic practice in relation to other graphic novelists. She will reflect on important moments in the history of the art form as well as trends that have informed her own artistic expression. She will also provide an overview of contemporary Arab comic and graphic novel production with a particular focus on Lebanon. \nGraphic Novel Workshop\nFollowing this presentation\, Barrack Zailaa Rima will conduct a series of creative practical exercises on constructing a narrative sequence\, which will allow you to become familiar with the language of graphic novels.
