Arab or Jewish? Israeli photographer and video artist Dor Guez’s ID card says “Jewish”, but his family history is not as straightforward. Guez’s videos feature intimate interviews with his Christian-Arab relatives and his photographs of Al Lydd – the Arabic name for Lod, the city he was raised in – paint a counternarrative of Palestinian culture. His exhibition at Kunst-Werke this month deals with locality and narrative, nationality as caught between stereotyping and self-definition: Guez uses his personal situations to recollect a larger narrative. Through November 11.
