Evento

A Gala Evening of Global Art & Rhythms

Art curated by the artist Nahrin Malki.

Nahrin Malki is considered one of the most important Assyrian artists, and her paintings were chosen to represent Netherlands modern art in Poland at Galeria Miejska Arsenal. Her art has been described as engaging, intelligent, and technical; a perfect balance, which is the essence of highly qualified art. At the AAI gala, Nahrin will curate her artwork to show fragments of Assyrian stories, symbols and figures vaguely recognizable as human beings all in order to show how the human rights of Assyrians have been dismissed.

Featuring the U.S. Debut of Australias Worldbeat Stars - AZADOOTA

Delivering an Assyrian extravaganza of percussive dance-rock worldbeat rhythms

Famous for promoting Assyrian language and culture to mainstream audiences, Azadoota, the Assyrian-Australian band, makes its U.S. debut at the AAI gala. The band will perform the characteristic rhythms of Assyrian folk music in contemporary arrangements to draw the audience in with theatrical musicality. Performing in the colorful costumes of ancient royal Assyrians, Azadoota entertains and inspires curiosity about Assyrian heritage, musical history, and cultural continuity.
