SUMMARY:Public Art Abu Dhabi Biennial: Globalisto – a Symphony for a Community
DESCRIPTION:This listening session\, performance\, and talk draws on the philosophy of Globalisto – the interplay of sound\, memory\, and identity in diasporic communities – developed by multidisciplinary artist and curator Ntshepe Tsekere (DJ Mo Laudi). Field recordings and Afro-electronic compositions are interwoven during this reimagining of the club as a site of shared resistance and healing that encourages sonic mindfulness\, ‘post-apartheid transitionalism’ dialogue\, and global sociopolitical subcultures.

SUMMARY:Zazie dans le métro: dir Louis Malle (1960)
DESCRIPTION:Classic surrealistic slapstick from France: Zazie is a brash and precocious ten-year-old (Catherine Demongeot) who comes to Paris for a whirlwind weekend with her rakish uncle (Philippe Noiret); he and the viewer get more than they bargained for\, however. Louis Malle anarchic\, surrealistic comedy\, based on a popular novel by Raymond Queneau that had been considered unadaptable\, rides roughshod over the City of Light. Made with real flair\, Zazie dans le métro is stream-of-consciousness slapstick\, full of great visual gags and editing tricks … Highly recommended. In French\, with English subtitles.

SUMMARY:Les Demoiselles de Rochefort: dir Jacques Demy (1996)
DESCRIPTION:Delphine is a dance teacher ; her sister Solange composes and teaches the piano. Maxence\, a poet and a painter\, is doing his military service; Simon owns a music shop. They are all looking for love\, without being aware that their ideal partner is very close … Demy’s extravagant tribute to the Hollywood musicals that had so enchanted him in his youth featured not just singing\, but also dancing\, multiple interwoven storylines\, and roles for some of his favourite actors – Michel Piccoli\, Jacques Perrin\, Gene Kelly\, Catherine Deneuve and more. The result is regarded by many as the best French film musical ever made. Screens in the MOVE ON FILM season.

SUMMARY:Rumors!
DESCRIPTION:Complices Théâtre presents Neil Simon’s farcical package of gags\, twists and zingers. A group of friends gathers for a dinner party\, only to find that something is not quite right – the kitchen staff have vanished\, the hostess is missing\, and the host has shot himself in the head (accidentally\, as it turns out). That’s just the start of the evening; as more guests arrive\, each adds their own twist to the unfolding situation … It’s really a very good play\, with clever dialogue and moments of tension amid the comedy. Jihane Tehini directs. \nThere are performances on 22\, 23 and 24 November at 8pm\, with a matinée at 2.30pm on 24 November. It’s played in English\, with subtitles in French too.

SUMMARY:Nico Van Lucas: I PAINT COLORS
DESCRIPTION:Twelve paintings by the Italian artist featuring his trademark explosions of vivid colour\, including his take on the UAE flag (above). He says his works place attention not on the subject\, but rather on the gesture: “painting becomes the intermediary\, while the arm\, which lashes the colour on the canvas\, becomes a connection with the boundless spaces of the imagination …”

SUMMARY:Abu Dhabi Art: day four
DESCRIPTION:The 16th edition of Abu Dhabi Art has 102 galleries\, the largest number to date. It has five principal sectors: \nModern & Contemporary: for established galleries (who have been operating for at least seven years) with curatorial framework for booth presentations. This is the main section\, with more than 30 galleries showing \nSpecial Projects: solo or dual artist presentations by individual galleries – we count 28 of these \nEmerge: for artworks priced under $3\,000 – nine participants this year \nBidaya: for emerging galleries (operating for less than three years) who are first-time participants. There are two exhibitors \nFocus: galleries invited to participate with specific artists chosen by a guest curator. There are Focus sectors for Hong Kong\, Latin America\, Women Artists and Sustainability (some very interesting selections here\, curated by Riccarda Mandrini) \nThis year there’s also a new regional section called Something Bold\, Something New; eight participating galleries – most of them regular participants in Abu Dhabi Art – will present works by modernist artists “whose practices and legacies are long overdue recognition and appreciation”. \nSilk Road; Drifting Identities is another new section\, this one for artists and galleries from Central Asia and the Caucasus. “These seem important debuts\, because they open long-forgotten discussions around the Silk Road\, which has come to represent a journey of self-discovery for travellers\, a search for identity\, and a time of metamorphosis”. \nThe Collectors Salon is perhaps the most interesting innovation. It’s described as a response to the Louvre Abu Dhabi’s lead in exploring connections between civilisations and cultures across time; so eight exhibitors will present manuscripts\, astrolabes\, historical objects\, rare books and 19th century Orientalist paintings. \nAs well as the conventional art fair\, Abu Dhabi Art places a lot of emphasis on its public engagement programme – installations\, commissions\, exhibitions\, talks and events throughout the year. Worth catching are the Beyond Emerging Artists exhibits at the Manarat (this programme provides three emerging artists in the UAE – Dina Nazmi Korchid\, Simrin Mehra Agarwal\, Fatima Al Ali – with a platform from which to realise ambitious art projects) and installations in Al Ain (site-specific artworks at Al Ain Oasis and Al Jahili Fort)

SUMMARY:Into The Beat | Dein Herz Tanzt: dir Stefan Westerwelle (2020)
DESCRIPTION:A great coming-of-age movie – teen destined for ballet stardom discovers hip hop dance. She finds a new passion that challenges everything she knows. Torn between ballet and hip-hop\, Kaya must decide which path to follow: the one set by her family or her newfound love for dance. The feel-good vibe is matched with a strong but deftly handled ideological message: the hip hop culture is full of new age dynamism\, and it tears down the class barriers that still surround classical ballet. Screens in the MOVE ON FILM season.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Artist’s Rooms: Sancintya Mohini Simpson
DESCRIPTION:Sancintya Mohini Simpson is a descended from indentured labourers sent from India to work on colonial sugar plantations in South Africa; her work navigates the complexities of migration\, memory and trauma\, moving between painting\, video\, poetry and performance to address gaps and silences within the colonial archive and reflect on her lineage. Her artist’s room showcases three significant works by her – Vessel (iteration #5)\, Jahajin and Ṭāpū – that reflect on the exploitation of indentured labour by colonial sugar industries.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Artist’s Rooms: Augustine Paredes
DESCRIPTION:Augustine Paredes’ artist’s room brings together his own personal histories and stories that explore his relationship to identity and family via his personal journey as a migrant\, navigating constantly between time\, places and identities. Gradually moving away from the camera as a main source of image-making\, he has embraced a more process-based approach that focuses on the inherent qualities and agency of materials used within his work. \nThe exhibition’s central work is Mother – a portrait of Marife\, an all-important figure in his life and one that embodies his connection to home and sense of belonging. Other works present traces of burns\, verses of poems\, paintings\, ink stains\, fibres\, pearls and wool threads. Together\, these works explore the artist’s reflections on guilt\, desire and devotion.

SUMMARY:Abu Dhabi Art: day five
DESCRIPTION:The final day of the 16th edition of Abu Dhabi Art. It has five principal sectors: \nModern & Contemporary: for established galleries (who have been operating for at least seven years) with curatorial framework for booth presentations. This is the main section\, with more than 30 galleries showing \nSpecial Projects: solo or dual artist presentations by individual galleries – we count 28 of these \nEmerge: for artworks priced under $3\,000 – nine participants this year \nBidaya: for emerging galleries (operating for less than three years) who are first-time participants. There are two exhibitors \nFocus: galleries invited to participate with specific artists chosen by a guest curator. There are Focus sectors for Hong Kong\, Latin America\, Women Artists and Sustainability (some very interesting selections here\, curated by Riccarda Mandrini) \nThis year there’s also a new regional section called Something Bold\, Something New; eight participating galleries – most of them regular participants in Abu Dhabi Art – will present works by modernist artists “whose practices and legacies are long overdue recognition and appreciation”. \nSilk Road; Drifting Identities is another new section\, this one for artists and galleries from Central Asia and the Caucasus. “These seem important debuts\, because they open long-forgotten discussions around the Silk Road\, which has come to represent a journey of self-discovery for travellers\, a search for identity\, and a time of metamorphosis”. \nThe Collectors Salon is perhaps the most interesting innovation. It’s described as a response to the Louvre Abu Dhabi’s lead in exploring connections between civilisations and cultures across time; so eight exhibitors will present manuscripts\, astrolabes\, historical objects\, rare books and 19th century Orientalist paintings.
