SUMMARY:Art Seeding Festival: Al Khayat Chapter
DESCRIPTION:An interesting concept: “art can be ‘seeded’ into the urban environment\, where it evolves over time through interaction with people\, space\, and context … Rather than presenting finished works within gallery walls\, the festival invites artists to engage directly with the city — through murals\, installations\, and site-specific interventions. These works are encountered\, lived with\, and gradually absorbed into the identity of the place …” \nSo Art Seeding is essentially a street art festival. More specifically\, it’s a festival that references Al Khayat Avenue as an emerging cultural district — “extending the creative ecosystem of Dubai beyond established hubs and into new\, formative urban spaces”  via a festival “that moves beyond the traditional exhibition model and into the fabric of the city itself”. In practice this means artists from a range of countries and cultural backgrounds\, selected from an open call earlier this year and supplemented by around 100 students from Beyond Architecture Studio (one of the festival’s founders\, Sofia Tkach\, is also founder of B.A.S)\, will be creating works for the Festival including murals\, large-scale installations\, and studio-based projects (in Warehouse 33); in most cases this will be happening live\, so visitors can observe the artistic process in real time and engage directly with artists. \nThe programme also includes: \n\nPublic talks and panel discussions exploring art\, architecture\, and urban development\nHands-on workshops led by participating artists\nA live performance and public gathering on 19 May (the festival is being presented as a complement to Art Dubai)\n\nSofia Tkach is Director and Head Curator of the festival. The other two founders are Dmitry Melnikov\, the gallerist behind Reinvention Art Gallery (R/A/G); and Maria Kuznetsova\, producer. Between them they bridge architecture\, education\, curatorial practice\, and gallery-driven experimentation – all of which sounds like a decent basis for a placemaking artistic endeavour. \n

SUMMARY:Un monde merveilleux: dir Giulio  Callegari (2024)
DESCRIPTION:Three more performances of this sharp\, witty\, very urban contemporary comedy of relationships. Worn down by 25 years together\, Xavier and Sophie seem to be running on empty: neighbours Adèle and Alban come round for dinner\, and these uninhibited people offer a somewhat risqué proposal that means the hosts are forced to confront themselves … Laure Aellen-Cangini\, Justin Dierckx de Casterlé\, Nicolas Gondard and Anne-Laure Morandeau make up the cast\, Justin Dierckx de Casterlé and Séverine Dentant direct for 33 Productions. (It’s in French\, obviously.) \nThere are performances at 8pm on 13\, 14 and 15 May. Tickets are AED 145 to AF members\, AED 150 to others.

SUMMARY:Wednesday Night Impro: Maestro
DESCRIPTION:The Courtyard’s popular evening of elimination improv. Ten actors converge for a night of scenes\, songs and games based on audience suggestions. After each round you score the players on a scale of 1 to 5\, and the one with the lowest score is knocked out. Eventually only one remains\, to be crowned the Maestro. “Fast-paced\, unpredictable\, and hilarious” says the promo\, and you couldn’t argue with that. As with all Courtyard improv evenings it’s free\, but you need to put your name on the guestlist (via the website); and it’s first-come first-served\, so get there early to grab a seat. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Shalabia Ibrahim: Fields of Memory
DESCRIPTION:Born in Egypt and long based in Syria\, Ibrahim’s practice is deeply informed by the visual traditions of the Levant and the rural soul of the Nile. This exhibition\, curated by Randa Sadaka\, offers a vibrant tapestry of lived experience and imagination\, highlighting her use of colour – “her dense\, saturated palettes do more than fill space” says the gallery: “they structure the image and carry an immediate affective presence\, acting as an emotional anchor for the viewer”. To 21 June. \nAbove: Shalabia Ibrahim\, Untitled (2017)

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE All at Once
DESCRIPTION:A group exhibition that reflects on continuity\, resilience\, and quiet optimism at a time when the world can feel uncertain. Says the gallery: “All at Once speaks to the coexistence of multiple realities – personal and shared\, fleeting and enduring\, grounded and aspirational. Through an eclectic mix of perspectives and practices\, the exhibition embraces this simultaneity\, offering a space where contrasts do not compete\, but instead unfold together”. \nThe artists: \nZhang Ji (China)\nGary Lang (USA)\nConrad Jon Godly (Switzerland)\nKojo Marfo (Ghana)\nSantiago Parra (Colombia)\nSophie-Yen Bretez (Vietnam)\nTim Kent (Canada)\nUr Kasin (Romania)\nRichard Wathen (UK)\nYann Leto (France)\nHenrik Uldalen (South Korea)\nLu Xinjian (China)

SUMMARY:Art Dubai Special Edition
DESCRIPTION:Art Dubai’s rescheduled 2026 incarnation has a basic shape as before – a fair with Contemporary\, Modern and Digital gallery sections – but there are some significant changes. For a start\, of course\, there are many fewer commercial galleries involved: we count 51 rather than the 120 or so originally signed up. Just about all the UAE galleries are there (24 of them\, and there are only a couple of obvious absentees by comparison with the 2025 roster). And despite the obvious issues with air travel and insurance for people and artworks there are a smattering of Europeans too. In total nearly 20 countries are represented. \nBenedetta Ghione\, Executive Director of the Art Dubai Group notes in the press release that “current circumstances mean that this may not be what we had planned to mark our 20th edition\, but the galleries and wider programmes represent what makes Art Dubai both unique and special”. She also pointed out that Art Dubai has always been more than your usual art fair – it’s also been a flagship and a support system for the cultural scene here. So “this special edition will demonstrate the resilience of the UAE’s cultural scene as well as the power of collaboration\, bringing together galleries\, artists and institutions at a time when that role of convening feels more important than ever. Art Dubai’s story is Dubai’s story\, and producing this special edition would only be possible in Dubai …” \nIndeed\, this time Art Dubai has more of a festival vibe\, with a raft of non-commercial elements like installations\, performances\, screenings and its daily programme of talks and conversations – plus the always excellent Global Art Forum\, which will be on the programme as usual. The installations and site-responsive artworks across the fair include some substantial names from the local ecosystem\, with works by Khalid Al Banna\, Hashel Al Lamki\, Rashid Bin Shabib and Ahmed Bin Shabib\, Rami Farook\, Kevork Mourad\, Yaw Owusu\, Neda Razavipour and Sudarshan Shetty. \nThere are also “expanded partnerships” with local institutions to emphasise “the fair’s role as a platform for collaboration and exchange”. Those include unspecified collaborations with Art Jameel\, the National Pavilion UAE\, the Ministry of Culture\, and Expo City’s House of Arts – but also … \n– works from the Barjeel Art Foundation’s probably unparalleled collection of modern Arab art\n– a performance programme with the Sharjah Art Foundation\n– a programme of “moving image works” (aka films?) co-curated with Alserkal Avenue and screened at both venues\n– an exhibition from the Dubai Collection (privately owned works available for occasional loan for public exhibition – it’s run by Art Dubai). Under the title Made Forward and exploring “how societies construct sustain and carry themselves forward”\, this will have art from more than 20 private collections \nArt Dubai Special Edition runs from 15 to 17 May\, with public access 4-9pm on Friday\, 2-9pm on Saturday\, and 12-6pm on Sunday (Thursday 14 May is the VIP-only day). Entry is free on public days\, but you need to preregister here and you’ll need the Art Dubai app too.

SUMMARY:Safwan Dahoul – The Eye: An Aperture Into the Soul
DESCRIPTION:Safwan Dahoul’s most recent body of work continues his Dream series – an ongoing body of work investigating the dream state that he began back in the late 1980s\, exploring “the physical and psychological effects of alienation\, solitude\, and longing that punctuate the human experience at various stages in life”. This solo show features the beautiful and usually melancholic monochromatic style which has become characteristic of Dahoul; it also includes more experimental works that are being shown in the UAE for the first time. \nTo 4 July. \nAbove: Safwan Dahoul\, Dream 283 (Diptych\, 2025)

SUMMARY:In Abstracto\, In Concreto: On Memory and Presence
DESCRIPTION:A summer-long group show for Luke Agada\, Tunji Adeniyi-Jones\, Ludovic Nkoth\, and Naila Opiangah\, curated by Brice Arsène Yonkeu – whose curatorial statement defines the show as “an encounter with works on paper and paintings that move between visibility and erasure\, between the surfaces of lived experience and the abstractions of memory”. It goes on: “the exhibition is less concerned with depicting bodies in their recognisable form than with asking how the body … becomes a vessel for history\, inheritance\, and imagination”; and “rather than presenting a singular mode of figuration or abstraction\, the exhibition unfolds as a spectrum of strategies. Within this spectrum\, three interwoven threads emerge: Memory and Inheritance\, where surfaces register the weight of what is passed down and endured; Myth and Imagination\, where hybrid or surreal forms generate new lineages; and Presence and Care\, where the body is both affirmed and protected as a site of tenderness and resilience.” \nTo 21 September. \nAbove: Tunji Adeniyi-Jones.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE White
DESCRIPTION:The annual Faculty exhibition of the Academy of Visual Arts at the University of the Arts\, Sharjah. The curator is Tor Seidel\, filmmaker and lecturer in photography and video at the Academy\, and his statement includes this summary of the show: “I invited my colleagues at the academy to explore the theme of ‘white’ and to imagine it as a colour\, as light\, as a concept\, and as a memory. A sculptor works with malleable materials\, carves stone\, fires it in a kiln\, and casts it in a foundry. Each process is an immersion in colour and in the questions of line and form\, which light can express in very different ways. A printmaker will consider which colours to use and what role white plays in the tones and in accentuation. The painter faces similar questions; he can draw on chiaroscuro techniques to create a dramatic scene. Painters face similar questions; they can use chiaroscuro techniques to create a dramatic scene. Photographers\, film and video artists\, and animators are particularly dependent on light as a fundamental element of their work: if they don’t want to rely on automated processes\, they face complex issues. But these are merely technical and aesthetic issues that need to be resolved. First\, however\, the artist must fathom the mystery of white …” \nExhibiting: \nGeorgina Abood interior architect\, designer\, researcher\nMohamed Yousif sculptor\, educator\nMuatasim Alkubaisy sculptor\, educator\nAlina Erimia fashion designer\, educator\nMuhammad Asad Iqbal multimedia designer\nThaier Helal painter\nIman Ibrahim designer\, associate professor at the College of Design\nAndreea Lonhardt textile artist\, fashion designer\, lecturer\nTor Seidel artist\, curator\, lecturer\nJoshua Watts visual artist\, printmaker\nMaryam Al Qassimi visual artist

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Anthony Akinbola: Get Well Soon
DESCRIPTION:Durags are stretchable fabrics worn over the head to shape and protect the hair; in Akinbola’s practice\, they are both culturally loaded objects and a material he can reconfigure. For this solo show\, Akinbola assembles durags into compositions that are drawn from the structure of classical floral still-life paintings. Translating this genre into fabric allows the image to form through construction; petals emerge through stitching\, density\, and layering. The flower is not painted; it is built. \nAlongside the floral arrangements\, Akinbola works through another motif: bricks. Says the gallery: “The brick pattern … introduces a different register: a wall\, a structure\, a longing. It gestures toward the search for something that lasts\, and toward the idea of home as legacy … The title Get Well Soon operates as both a cue and a condition\, an everyday phrase that carries hope and uncertainty at once”.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Of Land and Water: Works from the Sharjah Art Foundation Collection
DESCRIPTION:How do borders and ideologies attempt to contain open stretches of land and water\, and segregate those who inhabit them? What ties us to a place\, and what severs us from it? Which ways of living and knowledge can move freely across borders\, unbound by race and political ideas like the winds and tides? \nOf Land and Water brings together works by nine artists and collectives from around the world that grapple with some of these questions\, offering different perspectives on our association with and relationship to land\, water and homeland.
