The Iranian-French translator Leili Anvar researches Persian spiritual literature, including the lives and works of the poet Djalâl ad-Dîn Rûmî and the Kurdish-Persian poet Malek Jân Ne’mati. In her talk, she will discuss the possibilities and impossibilities of literary translation in relation to other translators and, in particular, the text The Conference of the Birds.
The event will be held in English.
The ifa Galleries in Stuttgart and Berlin present contemporary art from a global point of view. The work of the ifa Galleries is based on seeing the world from a diversity and plurality of perspectives, discovering new stories, and shaping emancipatory processes, interactions, and artistic spaces. Our focus is on long-term relationships with artists, partners, and visitors, and our exhibitions and education programmes are developed through practices of collaboration that trace global entanglements and piece them together in new forms of narrative.
