Call Me by My Name featured in the Royal Academy’s pick of the week’s art events.
‘A London exhibition featuring the stories of refugees who live in the infamous “Jungle” camp in Calais, in northern France, opened its doors to visitors Thursday. The Call me by my name exhibition organized by the Migration Museum Project aims to raise awareness on refugees and the individual stories behind the refugee crisis.’
‘A new exhibition displays work from those camping in Calais, volunteers and emerging artists, forcing us to reconsider both the diluted identities of migrants, and our own high-brow preconceptions of art.’
‘Next month, the Migration Museum will be displaying artwork produced by refugees in Calais and across Europe. Yasir* is very unlikely to see his work displayed, Genevieve Roberts explains.’
