SUMMARY:POSTPONED March Meeting 2026
DESCRIPTION:Sharjah Art Foundation’s annual convening of artists\, curators\, scholars and arts practitioners from around the world to discuss issues in contemporary art focuses this time on effective responses to global challenges in social unrest\, environmental degradation\, systemic erasure and alienation. \nThrough panels\, keynotes\, conversations and performances\, participants will examine how historical entanglements of language\, geography\, economy and social organisation shape our present. How can kinship\, memory and humour sustain connection even as shared stories fracture or fade? What forms of transmission – oral\, visual\, sonic\, literary\, archival – can trace the movement of knowledge and experience between people and places? \nThe March Meeting is always interesting and often insightful; there aren’t many equivalent symposia anywhere in the world (especially when attendance is free).  The provisional programme is here.

SUMMARY:Bashar Khalaf: The Field of Dreams
DESCRIPTION:Khalaf explores the relationship between self\, object\, and other through a focus on ‘steel’ in public spaces: The Field of Dreams\, or “dreams as minefields”\, remind us of the modern structures of unbridled capitalism and the transformative domination of life. This is delivered via two series of oil paintings\, The Junk Garden and The Protective Shield. The latter is particularly powerful\, using garbage bins as symbols of resistance during the First Intifada – juxtaposing their role as protective barriers against the colonial settler machinery with the oppressive use of steel barrels to enforce isolation.\nKhalaf asks questions about humanity’s choices in the face of hegemony and the nature of freedom in contemporary society. \nTo 1 June.
