A first look at ‘Shifting Sands: A Battle Song’, Manal AlDowayan’s multimedia installation for the National Pavilion of Saudi Arabia.
Jessica Cerasi, Maya El-Khalil, and Shadin AlBulaihed are set to collaborate closely with renowned Saudi artist Manal AlDowayan on an installation that promises to captivate audiences under the theme “Stranieri Ovunque — Foreigners Everywhere.”
Awartani is known for drawing inspiration from Islamic art and its intricate language of geometric abstraction to make works that are philosophically deep and rich reflections of Arab culture.
A collection of works that will be sold at the Modern and Contemporary Art Dubai auction from May 7 to 21 has been displayed at Christie's Dubai in DIFC these days.
Al-Dowayan’s showcase will be located at the Saudi pavilion, which is commissioned by the Ministry of Culture’s Visual Arts Commission.
The Saudi artist took over the museum’s rotunda for one night earlier in the summer to present a participatory art installation.
