Arada // Street Smart is a project by Marco Di Nunzio & Adelaide Di Nunzio that narrates the lives of street hustlers in Arada, the old city centre of the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa.In March 2024, Arada was razed to the ground to create space for new infrastructural and real estate developments.
This exhibition at CENTRALA is an attempt to preserve some of the narratives and memories lost with the recent demolitions.
On 7 May 2024 we invite you to the exhibition opening and artist talk taking place at Centrala Gallery in Digbeth at 6pm.
Photographer Vanley Burke and development studies scholar Biruk Terrefe will be joining Marco and Adelaide for a discussion about photography, ethnography and what is to document inner cities during times of radical changes and unjust developments. The event will be moderated by Anita Shervington.
The exhibition is funded by the University of Birmingham and has been organised in collaboration with the PRISM Photography Network.
