On the occasion of her solo exhibition at LUX, Rosalind Nashashibi – Jack Straw’s Castle, Rosalind Nashashibi will present a programme of her film work, followed by a conversation with Irene Revell.
Rosalind Nashashibi is a London-based filmmaker and painter. Her films describe the qualities of experience, things and locations. Alongside her solo practice, she is one half of the collaboration Nashashibi/Skaer with artist Lucy Skaer. Recent solo shows include a war artist commission at Imperial War Museum, UCI California, Objectif , Antwerp, ICA, London and Chisenhale. She has shown in Manifesta 7, the Nordic Triennial and Sharjah 10. She represented Scotland in the 52nd Venice Biennale. She is a recipient of the Paul Hamlyn Award for artists, and in 2003 was the first woman to win Becks Futures. In 2017 she is participating in documenta14 in Athens and Kassel and has been nominated for the Turner Prize. Nashashibi’s and Nashashibi/Skaer’s films are distributed by LUX.
