ALYA SEBTI

Alya Sebti is a Berlin-based independent curator who in 2014 was the artistic director for the 5th edition of the Marrakech Biennale. She recently curated the solo show "Caverne" of Hicham Berrada that is still on view at Wentrup Gallery in Berlin until January 2016.

While, as Alya Sebti states, the art system’s pace gets faster, exhibition making becomes dictated by hyper productivity and the curator is expected to perform within a frenetic temporality punctuated by curatorial turns, she proposes slowing down and investigating the role of the curator since 2000 in her one-week summer academy course.

In this interview you can listen to Alya Sebti talking about the current North African art scene.
