NEW JERSEY---In an area too often known for its endless conflicts, Middle Eastern female artists and performers have found a means to express their feelings about their culture, violence, and gender roles. More than 100 works by these women will be on display at venues in Princeton and New Brunswick through Jan. 13 as part of a half-year-long program sponsored jointly by Rutgers and Princeton universities. “The Fertile Crescent: Gender, Art and Society” will include lectures, film screenings, and special events held in conjunction with the exhibits.
