Past Event Off the Wall 2012 – Rabih Mroué: Looking for a Missing Employee
Rabih Mroué, a key figure in a new generation of artistic voices in Lebanon, illustrates his unique interdisciplinary practice, which exists at the crossroads of theater, performance, and visual arts. Looking for a Missing Employee combines video imagery, storytelling and an archive of articles and other documents used to scrutinize the print media’s role in shaping and propagating rumors, public accusations, national political conflicts and scandals. Rabih Mroué is the recipient of the 2010 Spalding Gray Award from PS 122, The Andy Warhol Museum, On the Boards, and the Walker Art Center.
“[He is] to Beirut what the Wooster Group is to New York: a blend of avant-garde innovation, conceptual complexity and political urgency, all grounded in earthy humor.”
– The New York Times
