fluent is pleased to present Ta’ziyeh, a two–day public programme that integrates film and sonic works from the KADIST collection, together with pieces by guest artists invited by fluent.
Drawing on the work of Iranian playwright Reza Abdoh (currently on view at fluent), the notion of Ta’ziyeh –a theatrical genre considered a fundamental pillar in Iranian theatre– provides a space to imagine potential forms of catharsis in the intricate tapestry of contemporary global violence and geopolitics. As a cathartic device, Ta’ziyeh addresses the reality and cruelty of our lives while reclaiming presence and desire. Echoing its dramatic nature, the artists in the programme respond to the current state of extreme political fatigue, unfolding forms of affection through ritualistic, somatic and atmospheric means.
