A Crossing

ByNatascha Sadr Haghighian

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
A rubber raft filled with passive world leaders, their arms locked in unity. This image—an uncredited mash-up circulated online in April 2015—combines a photo op of western heads of state at the Paris Charlie Hebdo march with a more recent tragedy: the deaths of hundreds of migrants in the Mediterranean. It’s an apt metaphor, writes Natascha Sadr Haghighian, for an EU refugee policy that’s hopelessly adrift. This pamphlet is published by the Walker Art Center as part of its online Artist Op-Eds series, an ongoing project inviting artists in all disciplines to respond through writing to events in the news.
