Ibraaz, a new art institution in London set to open in October, seeks to create a platform for global majority voices and facilitate respectful debate. Founded by Lina Lazaar, the institution plans to tackle urgent questions surrounding freedom of expression, which is perceived to be under threat. Ibraaz, previously an online platform, aims to provide a space for genuine dialogue and inquiry. Its inaugural exhibition will feature Ibrahim Mahama's work and will include additional programs like a library-in-residence and a bookshop curated by the Palestine festival of literature.
Lina Lazaar emphasizes the necessity for a space that fosters genuine dialogue and inquiry, stating that the current climate of diminished freedom of expression necessitates such initiatives.
The Ibraaz institution aims to function as a bastion for respectful debate, counteracting the prevalent aggression observed in political discussions, particularly regarding difficult and urgent questions.
