Twenty Years project organised by journalist and activist Antony Loewenstein
For more than 2+ years Antony has been developing the Twenty Years project with Melbourne-based artist Tia Kass and Afghans around the world. This month it finally launches, a timely collaboration between artists and journalists to assess the reality of 20+ years of war in Afghanistan.
Phase one of the project launches now with public events (7 and 8 October, sorry for late notice) featuring Afghans in Australia and the Diaspora discussing the war and new artwork and journalism on civilians affected by the conflict. The Twenty Years website is now live.
