The closing event of this year’s excellently curated Reel Iraq festival, this exhibition explores not only major artworks coming out of Iraq, but also the tribulations and obstacles that artists from that country have to go through in order to create their works. The exhibition runs until Sun 12 Jul, when Rashad Selim, the noted artist/actvist, will deliver a lecture with the same title. See www.reelfestivals.org for full details.
Roxy Art House, Edinburgh, until Sun 12 Jul. Lecture at 6pm.
