The Presidents: Remix is a programme of video screenings with works by Khaled Hafez, Ahmed El Shaer, Wael Shawky, and Raed Yassin curated by the artist Uriel Orlow following his Pro-Helvetia residency in Cairo. The videos in The Presidents: Remix salvage or restage archival images of the three long term Egyptian presidents Nasser, Sadat and Mubarak and critically explore the relationship between memory, event, authority and representation. The Presidents: Remix is the third programme in the series Historians of the Present (2008-2010).

Additional events and screenings will take place throughout the month.
All events in the Walk-in Cinema are in original language.
