SUMMARY:CLOSING TODAY Afra Al Dhaheri: Restless Circle
DESCRIPTION:A selection of works by Afra Al Dhaheri that explore the structural effects of tension\, repetition and time provides Sharjah Art Foundation’s first show of Autumn. “Working with materials such as cotton rope\, fabric\, cement and hair\, the artist emphasises slow gestures\, intentional movements and the fatigue that can build from ongoing\, repetitive and even invisible labour …” \nThe exhibition’s title comes from a newly commissioned installation with the same name; that draws inspiration from desert plants that create spiral patterns in the sand as they move with the wind. For Afra Al Dhaheri\, this offers a metaphor for mental exhaustion and collective burnout\, the sense of being endlessly pushed to produce or perform: “in other works\, repetition emerges as a condition of making\, a method shaped by the interplay of tension\, weight and the ongoing rhythm of doing and undoing”.

SUMMARY:Image Keepers
DESCRIPTION:For its inaugural exhibition\, SAF’s Photography Gallery presents a panorama of artistic experimentation and engagement drawn from the Sharjah Art Foundation Collection. Says the Foundation: “the works navigate the sociopolitical terrain of the last six decades against a backdrop of the compressed\, and often fissured\, processes of modernisation and decolonisation”. \nImage Keepers is curated by SAF’s Head of Curatorial Jiwon Lee and Curatorial Assistants Nada Ammagui and Osemudiamen Ekore\, with Souraya Kreidieh and Shahd Murshed from the Foundation’s Collection Department. \nTo 26 April.

SUMMARY:Photographic Encounters along the Gulf Coasts
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of 165 photographs and archival documents from the collection of Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi\, Ruler of Sharjah\, that provides a starting point for research into how photography translates and interprets history. On permanent display at Sharjah Art Foundation’s new Photography Gallery in Al Manakh\, the exhibition features late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century glass slides depicting people\, places and activities along the Arabian Gulf and Indian Ocean coasts; “these images speak in some ways to notions of power\, class\, gender and ethnicity\, signalling the prevailing cultural attitudes of the time” as the press release puts it. \nRight: ‘Busra [sic] creek’\, late 19th to early 20th century
