It’s been almost 30 years since the 1991 Gulf War, and those years brought U.S. sanctions against Iraq as well as the Iraq War of 2003. In “Theater of Operations,” both Iraqi and U.S. artists tell their stories in over 300 works. Culture, politics, identity, oil, the internet, news cycles, and more are the subjects at hand. –-E.C.
