SUMMARY:CLOSING TODAY 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.

SUMMARY:CLOSING TODAY Artist's Room: Bani Abidi
DESCRIPTION:Bani Abidi’s Artist’s Room displays a single body of work\, Trembling hands (2024) – a series of portraits of artists\, journalists\, politicians\, lawyers\, doctors and civil society leaders who publicly spoke out against the genocide of Palestinians\, often using public platforms that exposed them to backlash\, censorship or repression. Drawn in 2024\, the portraits primarily refer to speeches made in late 2023 and early 2024 during the most brutal and deadly period of the Israeli onslaught on Gaza\, also characterised by widespread international inaction. Some of the speakers depicted by Abidi are Palestinian; others spoke in solidarity.

SUMMARY:CLOSING TODAY Afrah Shafiq: Nobody Knows For Certain
DESCRIPTION:Afrah Shafiq’s Nobody Knows for Certain is a multimedia game that draws on the illustrated children’s books that were distributed widely in India by the USSR\, highlighting a little-known chapter of Cold War-era cultural exchange. These richly illustrated Soviet fairytales and folk stories shaped many childhood memories and are now the subject of a thriving subculture of collectors across South Asia. \nNobody Knows For Certain is an anthology of stories developed through a field research fellowship with the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art\, Moscow\, alongside an archive Shafiq has built of Soviet children’s books across Indian languages and oral testimonies gathered during her research. Sitting between interactive fiction\, documentary and point-and-click adventure games\, the work invites players to collect books virtually\, find portals from one tale to the next and move through archival findings and historical backdrops that trace how two seemingly disparate lands were closely tied to one another.
