 While Morocco’s COVID-19 response has elicited plaudits from a number of observers, there is still anxiety over repeated extensions of emergency measures. In November, Moroccan authorities started marketing a national vaccination campaign to address citizens’ concerns, saying that the campaign will happen in “a few weeks.” Earlier this week, however, Head of Government Saad Eddine El Othmani declared that health authorities in the country are still uncertain about when they will receive the COVID-19 vaccine doses the government has ordered. El Othmani blamed the delay on the competitiveness of the global market for COVID-19 vaccines, saying that “rich countries” are paying up to nine times the asking price of the vaccines to get the available doses.

FezArtLab presents the collective outdoor mobile exhibition

The FezArtLab presents the collective outdoor mobile exhibition This exhibition aims to highlight the power of art as a vehicle for positive change in times of uncertainty. 

The idea of ​​hosting the exhibit in publicly accessible spaces came in response to the pandemic's social distancing protocol, which resulted in a sharp drop in participation in cultural activities. The arts community has been particularly affected during the pandemic, leaving little scope for interaction with audiences outside of virtual experiences. 

It was important to use the physical environment of this exhibit to elicit a full sensory human experience. Fez and its medina being a cultural centre we hope that these installations will create an artistic experience that will continue to contribute to the richness of the cultural and intellectual rhythms of this city. 

This exhibition presents local international artists in order to create opportunities for dialogue between these artists. Here they present their unique perspectives and imaginations to us. 

About the Fez art laboratory At the intersection of preservation and transformation, the FezArtLab is a space of cultural innovation, dedicated to the conservation of projects that serve the community. 

The FezArtLab focuses on the local promotion of art as a vehicle for positive change. FezArtLab's next projects aim to support the pivotal role of art in the local community in this period of changing routines and social norms. 

Join us this Saturday, January 16th from 6pm - 7pm for our Mobile Open-Air Collective Exhibition closing event!

This is a free event and will be held on Zoom.
