Queen's Palace in Bagh-e-Bagur
1 – 22 June 2010
An exhibition of photo-documentary works from the 2009 Freedom to Create Prize tours to the Queen’s Palace complex in Bagh-e-Babur (or Babur Gardens) in Kabul, Afghanistan.
The Freedom to Create Prize has traditionally received strong entries from Afghanistan such as visual artist Sheenkai Alam Stanikzai who was the second runner up of the 2009 Main Prize and Mobile Mini Circus for Children
We are delighted to bring the Prize exhibition to a historic site in Afghanistan where the stories of our participants can reach and inspire the citizens of Kabul. The sixteenth-century Bagh-e-Babur is where the first Mughal Emperor Babur is buried. Recently restored, the 11-hectare garden not only re-establishes the historic character of the site but also provides the people of Kabul with a space for recreation and cultural events.
Bagh-e-Babur is open to the public every day of the week. Garden entry fees are 20Afs. for Kabul residents and 250Afs. for international visitors. Entry to the exhibition is free.
