Which images are made manifest across an artist\u2019s practice and which are the ones that disappear? How do objects\u2014whether seen or unseen\u2014and the knowledge they possess traverse across place and time to avow their resistance? These are amongst the questions asked by artist Nour Bishouty in her artist\u2019s book 1\u2014130, a project that draws upon her ongoing research into the works of her father, Ghassan Bishouty (b. 1941 Palestine \u2013 d. 2004, Jordan). In 1\u2014130, she borrows from methods of indexing and object classification to act as figurative codes for identification and cross-reference within the contexts of value and legacy. All the while employing paratactic strategies of text and image to understand the life and work of an artist faced with the discontinuity of deracination.<\/p>\n

1\u2014130 constitutes reflexive encounters with a series of 130 selected paintings and sculptures made circa 1965-2004 in Lebanon and Jordan, and concludes with an afterword by editor and curator Jacob Korczynski.<\/p>\n

1\u2014130 is designed by Laura Pappa & Lotte Lara Schr\u00f6der and co-published by Art Metropole & Motto Books.<\/p>\n

Nour Bishouty\u00a0is a visual artist working in a range of media including digital images, works on paper, sculpture, video, and writing.

Nour was a fellow at the 2014\/15 Home Workspace Program at Ashkal Alwan in Beirut. Her work has been exhibited in venues such as Darat Al Funun, Amman; Access Gallery, Vancouver; the Beirut Art Centre, the Helen Day Art Centre, Vermont; Casa Arabe, Madrid and Cordoba; and the Mosaic Rooms, London.<\/p>\n
