Use the index to look up and read the passages on Shirin Neshat in your textbook (understanding art 10th edition) . Then watch the documentary video Shirin Neshat: Expressing the Inexpressible. Keep the following questions in mind as you take notes on the film: What concepts does Shirin Neshat deal with in her work? What benefits does working in video, film, and non-traditional photography (i.e. painting on photographs) give her as an artist? How do these media allow her to express her ideas in a way that traditional mediums like drawing, painting, printmaking, or sculpture would not? Finally, how would the experience of viewing Shirin Neshat’s video and film installations in a museum context be fundamentally different than viewing her work in this video?
