i'm truly honoured to be part of the exhibition 'from barcelona to abu dhabi: works from the barcelona museum of contemporary art (macba) in dialogue with the emirates', which officially opened yesterday. organised by the abu dhabi music and arts foundation (admaf), the exhibition is part of the abu dhabi festival programme, showcasing works from the macba collection alongside works by 20 emirati artists, including myself.
selected for the show was my artwork titled 'emirian', originally commissioned by uae unlimited and exhibited at the maraya art centre in 2016. check out my previous post here with details on the artwork when it was first exhibited.
i'm so humbled to be part of an exhibition that showcases works from the macba's collection spanning over ninety years, as well as exhibiting alongside many of the uae's prominent, established artists from different generations. i really wish i was there to see it all in person. a huge thank you goes out to the admaf team, and curator nasser abdullah for reaching out and working on showing my piece in my absence. really appreciate all the effort put into having me be part of the show.
