The performance and installation Untitled 14KM raises the question of what a 'contemporary Arab identity' could be.
Four figures – a young contemporary Arabian artist, an Arab curator, a director of a museum for Western contemporary art and an Arab-Andalusian poet from the 7th century – negotiate, argue and fight each other about who has the legitimacy to define this identity, in the context of an exhibition that they must organise together.
