Utilizing art materials donated to camps by the Ruya Foundation for Contemporary Culture in Iraq, these 350 drawings were created by some of the country's 1.8 million refugees, providing a necessary outlet for their immense suffering and struggles associated with being temporarily displaced from their vocations as lawyers, teachers, farmers, and mothers. Originally presented as an exhibition at the 2015 Venice Biennale, this publication features a large group of these drawings exclusively selected by the artist and activist Ai Weiwei. Harnessing the power of visual art as a means for both personal expression and socio-political awareness, this innovative book represents the humanistic effort to provide a voice for the underrepresented and their unimaginable strife. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eMercatorfonds is donating all profits from the sale of this book to the refugee camps in Iraq.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for Mercatorfonds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tamara Chalabi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300218206\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300218206\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mercatorfonds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/02\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.50h x 9.80w x 0.70d","brand":"Tamara Chalabi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44054821241087,"sku":"9780300218206","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4a94faf4-6e07-41a9-b0ea-1bc1d44a7895.jpg?v=1685032192","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/traces-of-survival-tamara-chalabi-9780300218206","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
