Work

By Belinda Grace Gardner

" ... The Interdisciplinary, Cooperative is a key moment in Tabtis diverse artistic production, which also includes film and photo installations such as collaboration on projects and opera - as well as currently the case - with the integration of literary materials arbeitet.Ein a general principle of Youssef Tabtis multi-layered approach is - in addition to cooperation with representatives of other artistic sectors, from theater and literature to music and opera - perhaps to see precisely in this: questioning of identity constructs of cultural and collective as well as personal, individual Art "
