Rasha Salti

Salti's involvement with film programming started at the Théâtre de Beyrouth, an independent cultural space in the post-war Beirut.

[17][18] Salti is the co-curator of the exhibition Past Disquiet: Narratives and Ghosts from the Exhibition of International Art for Palestine (Beirut, 1978) (with Kristine Khouri), which was hosted at the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art[19][20][21] (MACBA) (2015), the Haus der Kulturen der Welt[22] in Berlin (2016), the Museo de la Solidaridad Salvador Allende[23] (MSSA) in Santiago de Chile (2018), and the Sursock Museum[24] (2018).

This project is the result of a decade-long research that explores the artistic networks of international solidarity from Palestine to Chile, South Africa to Japan in the 1960 to the 1980s.

[27] Salti’s articles and essays have appeared in The Jerusalem Quarterly Report, Naqd, MERIP, The London Review of Books, Afterall, and Third Text, as well as several anthologies dedicated to film, art and culture.

[30] In 2009, she collaborated with photographer Ziad Antar on an exhibition and book titled Beirut Bereft, The Architecture of the Forsaken and Map of the Derelict.
