Nour Bishouty: Unlikely Mother
Museo Universitario del Chopo
Until 24 May

Since joining the Museo Universitario del Chopo as its chief curator last year, Miguel A. López has developed a unique curatorial programme for this storied university museum that is focused on drawing connections with Central America, championing trans voices and promoting artists from the Arab world and its diasporas. For Art Week, and in line with this vision, the museum’s cavernous central space will be devoted to the Jordanian-born artist Nour Bishouty’s solo exhibition Unlikely Mother, which offers an exploration of lineage, maternal relations and bodily expression.

Bishouty, whose work has been shown at the Liverpool Biennial and Art Jameel, is broadly interested in the mechanisms of memory, the construction of knowledge and the aftereffects of misunderstanding.
