About this event
Internationally exhibited artist, filmmaker and writer Mariam Ghani participates in a virtual conversation about two of her upcoming projects developed around the 100th anniversary of the 1918 pandemic. Watch clips from the film “DIS-EASE,” which examines themes of illness, otherness and invasion. Then enjoy excerpts from “The Fire Next Time,” an in-progress short that traces the connection between epidemics and social upheaval from the 1800s to the present. Ghani’s film “What We Left Unfinished” (2019) will be available to stream between Monday, March 14 and Sunday, March 21. 5:30 p.m. Free with registration. www.americanart.si.edu // @americanart
