Description

You're invited to Part 2 of Letters from Albania: The Manifesto Collective on Art, Politics, and Trust—Albanian Trilogy: A Series of Devious Stratagems (2011–15) by Armando Lulaj, on September 19, followed by a reception. One of Albania’s most internationally celebrated contemporary artists (having represented the country at the 56th Venice Biennale), Lulaj was a key organizer of the Manifesto Collective. Grounded in years of meticulous research, this trilogy—an ambitious cinematic time capsule of Cold War Albania—interlaces fiction and documentary to probe collective memory, socialist mythologies, and the post-socialist condition.
