Shuruq Harb is based in Ramallah, Palestine. Working with text and photography, her work has taken the city as one of its main subject matters. She is currently working on a limited edition artist book with the working title A Portrait of a City-45 Faces, which documents portraits found on store fronts in Ramallah. The project also traces the circulation and distribution of images from the Internet and into the city landscape.  She is the co-founder of ArtTerritories, an online platform for critical exchange on matters of art and visual culture in the Middle East and the Arab World. Her piece A Book of Signatureswill be showing at Untitled (12th Istantbul Biennial) opening Sept. 2011.
