Covert War and Cultures Collide: - a Symposium at the Imperial War Museum

Discussion with Mahwish Chishty, photographic artist Lisa Barnard and IWM contemporary art researcher, Clare Carolin, on the challenges of creating artworks which represent and comment on covert war.

This event runs alongside the upcoming exhibition IWM Contemporary: Mahwish Chishty, which features a mixture of 2D and 3D works that combine decorative Pakistani folk art with silhouettes of US military drones. Mahwish Chishty is a contemporary artist combining new media and conceptual work with her traditional practice as a miniature painter. This is the first international solo exhibition for the US-based artist.
