SUMMARY:CLOSING TODAY Fabian Philandrianos and Pascal Navarro: Beyond the Gaze
DESCRIPTION:“An exhibition exploring the perception and relationship between the viewer and the artwork … an invitation to discover what may appear when we take the time to look beyond the surface.” The two French artists offer a dialogue between the figurative and the abstract\, the intimate and the universal\, movement and stillness: “from the intensity of a human gaze to the vastness of an imagined landscape\, the works encourage us to slow down\, look again and allow perception to shift”.

SUMMARY:Spices and Wonders: Sailing the Indian Ocean
DESCRIPTION:This spectacular exhibition follows a thousand years of maritime history and culture\, charting the routes that connected the civilisations of Africa\, Asia\, and beyond. It documents the evolution of navigation and the techniques that enabled adventurous sailors to explore the unknown; spices were the prize\, and as people travelled\, so did ideas and cultures. Spanning from Antiquity to the 17th century\, the exhibition explores centuries of trade\, movement and cultural exchange through displays of spices\, textiles\, ceramics and other special cargos which crossed the ocean. \nThe exhibition is presented in partnership with the National Museum of Asian Arts – Guimet in France; it is curated by Louvre Abu Dhabi’s Guilhem André and Claire Déléry\, Curator of the Chinese Ceramics collection at Guimet in Paris. A second edition of this touring exhibition will be presented at Guimet next year. \nTo 14 February.

SUMMARY:Wednesday Night Impro: Maestro
DESCRIPTION:The Courtyard’s popular evening of elimination improv. Ten actors converge for a night of scenes\, songs and games based on audience suggestions. After each round you score the players on a scale of 1 to 5\, and the one with the lowest score is knocked out. Eventually only one remains\, to be crowned the Maestro. “Fast-paced\, unpredictable\, and hilarious” says the promo\, and you couldn’t argue with that. As with all Courtyard improv evenings it’s free\, but you need to put your name on the guestlist (via the website); and it’s first-come first-served\, so get there early to grab a seat.
