 N.\n\nThe Invisible Dog Art Center\, Fisher Center at Bard\, and Under the
  Radar Festival are thrilled to present the New York City premiere of Tani
 a El Khoury's Cultural Exchange Rate\n\nThe cruelest of borders are invis
 ible to the eye and present in everyday life. The death traps set within a
  moving body of water and the concealed militarization of faraway border v
 illages. Cultural Exchange Rate is an interactive live art project in whic
 h artist Tania El Khoury shares her family memoirs of life in a border vil
 lage between Lebanon and Syria. One marked by war survival\, valueless cur
 rency collection\, brief migration to Mexico\, and a river that disregards
  the colonial and national borders. The audience is invited to immerse the
 ir heads into one family’s secret boxes to explore sounds\, images\, and
  textures of traces of more than a century of border crossings. Cultural E
 xchange Rate is based on the artist’s recorded interviews with her late 
 grandmother\, oral histories collected in her village in Akkar\, the disco
 very of lost relatives in Mexico City\, and the family’s attempt to secu
 re dual citizenship.\n\nCredits:\n\nProduction Design: Petra Abousleiman\n
