SUMMARY:CLOSING TODAY Habeeb Abu-Futtaim: The Ongoing Performance of Melancholia and Songs in Solitude
DESCRIPTION:Two interconnected exhibitions\, both curated by Mo Reda and supported by the Department of Painting and Printmaking at VCUarts Qatar. Together\, The Ongoing Performance of Melancholia and Songs in Solitude mark the culmination of a two-month residency at Bayt AlMamzar; they present several different bodies of work developed over the past ten years\, drawing from an artistic practice shaped by sustained research\, investigation\, and critical inquiry. \nWorking across painting\, installation\, performance\, video\, and writing\, Abu-Futtaim investigates the construction and performance of collective identities\, examining how inherited symbols\, political imaginaries\, and cultural narratives become internalized as expressions of belonging. Songs in Solitude reflects on the intimate space of artistic practice through playfulness\, imagination\, intimacy\, and selfhood; The Ongoing Performance of Melancholia turns outward to examine the inherited performances of collective identity and the burden of unrealized political futures. Between them the exhibitions move between the personal and the political\, revealing how solitude\, memory\, and collective imagination continually shape one another.

SUMMARY:Youness Atbane: Untitled 14km
DESCRIPTION:The second evening for this work that combines dance theatre\, performance\, and installation in a satirical examination of how contemporary art engages with questions of identity – particularly what is framed as “Arab identity”. Atbane constructs an imagined exhibition at the fictional Museum of North Africa\, Middle East Contemporary Art\, where an Arab-Andalusian poet\, a museum director\, a curator\, and a contemporary artist attempt to conceive an exhibition that re-examines modernism through two parallel lenses: the poetic legacy of the Arab-Andalusian era and the work of established contemporary Arab artists. \nThrough this constructed situation\, Untitled 14km questions legitimacy\, authority\, and representation within the global art system\, considering how identity is shaped through discourse\, competition\, and institutional validation\, contributing to a sharply witty examination of Orientalism in the arts.
