    Interview with Hans Ulrich Obrist about Etel Adnan

    "I've been very fascinated by Etel from the very beginning. It was almost like an oracle to meet her."

    Fifteen hours of interviews with Etel Adnan are being shown for the first time to the public. The numerous discussions between Hans Ulrich Obrist and Etel Adnan, testify above all the depth, the accuracy, and the longevity of their continuous exchange, from 2007 until her passing on 14 November 2021.
    In this interview, Hans Ulrich Obrist talks about the exhibition devoted to this archive, which reveals Etel Adnan's many passions, from writing to drawing, from painting to poetry, and especially her love of the world
