SUMMARY:Reflections: Modern and Contemporary Art from the Villain Collection
DESCRIPTION:Modern and contemporary works from Syria\, Lebanon\, North Africa\, and the UAE selected from the impressive private collection of Fairouz and Jean-Paul Villain – a pair of collectors for whom the acquisition of works has been a way of engaging with artists and the places they call home. As the Foundation puts it\, “their collection brings together works that speak to personal histories and cultural exchange … while inviting you to experience the region through their eyes”. \nTo 31 May. \nAbove: Mohamed Ahmed Ibrahim\, Pinky Boulevard (2020)

SUMMARY:Khozema Al-Aaed: We Walk on Stories
DESCRIPTION:Khozema Al‑Aaed’s solo exhibition reimagines cartographies\, reminding us that land absorbs our movements\, our wounds\, our hopes\, “becoming a living archive of human presence” as the gallery puts it. “The compositions resemble traces of cities once inhabited\, imagined\, or departed. Lines recall footsteps and pathways that may no longer exist\, yet continue to shape identity and belonging. Land appears not as a passive surface\, but as a living archive that absorbs stories\, wounds\, and hopes over time …” \nThe exhibition has been curated by Lina Mikati. \nTo 13 April. \nAbove: Khozema Al-Aaed\, Cities 2 (2025)

SUMMARY:Luis Olaso: Photosynthesis
DESCRIPTION:New work by the Spanish artist\, which the gallery says marks a pivotal moment in his practice. They were created in his new studio in Cádiz\, surrounded by olive\, almond\, and orange trees\, allowing nature to enter physically and psychologically; rather than depicting this environment directly\, Olaso allows it to act as a catalyst for emotion\, intuition\, and subconscious response. As the artist puts it: “Even when I work with plants\, flowers\, or everyday elements\, I am not aiming for literal representation; they are a vehicle to express abstract metaphors of myself and the moment I am living while creating the work”. \nTo 9 March. \nAbove: Luis Olaso\, Composition for a field of red poppies (2025)
