‘Phantom Limb: some people bring their bodies’, a group show exposing Marwan’s structure- a growing body of limbs and parts that make up the infrastructure that Marwan consists of, materially;
a collection of people holding up the makings of the space: those who do photography, invigilation, curation, policy-making, cleaning, grant-writing, programming, etc.— and continuously shapeshift between — makers, next to their practices and work within Marwan as well.

Marwan was invited to participate in SYSTEMA 2023. SYSTEMA is a consortium of international and non profit art initiatives taking place annually in Marseille. It is a celebration of the many forms of independence the invited projects are bringing along presenting get together installations in historical venues of Marseille’s center. Additionally, SYSTEMA functions as an opportunity for project spaces to test new environments and modes of public programming.
SYSTEMA internally curates their guests each year based on spontaneous or long-lasting affinities.
