Monument Exchanges / Kuwait City November 21, 2023 at CEFREPA

The French Research Center of the Arabian Peninsula (CEFREPA) organized a workshop entitled “Monument Exchanges / Kuwait City” with Dr. Anahi Alviso-Marino on November 21, 2023.

This workshop was dedicated to generating collective knowledge about the city and public art through retracing stories about monuments and sculptural artworks in Kuwait City’s parks, roads, and roundabouts.
The participants worked with both maps and monuments—the latter understood as sculptural and architectural works created to commemorate events, generate landmarks, celebrate individual and collective figures, and/or embellish the city.
