Zineb Sedira is a Franco-Algerian artist based in London whose work reflects on her multiple identities – British, French, Algerian, Berber, Arab, African – and their relationship to colonialism and post-colonialism. The evening begins with an exploration of the role of film in the work of Zineb Sedira, in conversation with Joseph Constable, Head of Exhibitions at the De La Warr Pavilion on the occasion of her exhibition. Picking up on the way in which Battle of Algiers foregrounds the role of Algerian women in the anti-colonial liberation struggle, this event explores the histories of Algerian women and anti-colonialism.
