Constructing Peripheries, an exhibition of work by three Azerbaijani artists will open on 21st May in Amsterdam as part of the GRID International Photography Festival 2014, which this year is based on the theme of 'constructions'. The artists explore the meaning of constructed environments in everyday life and their impact on the self-identification of their inhabitants
The sixth edition of GRID will feature many international artists from all over the world and, among others, three young Azerbaijani artists - Zamir Suleymanov, Emin Azizbeyli and Nazrin Mammadova - who work across different media. The exhibition is curated by Suad Garayeva and commissioned by YARAT, a non-commercial organization dedicated to nurturing an understanding of contemporary art in Azerbaijan and to creating a platform for Azerbaijani art, both nationally and internationally. Based in Baku, YARAT, (which means CREATE in Azerbaijani) realizes its mission through an on-going program of exhibitions, education events, and festivals. YARAT facilitates dialogue and exchange between local and international artistic networks, including foundations, galleries and museums.
