SUMMARY:Dhai Dubai
DESCRIPTION:Dhai Dubai\, Dubai Culture’s light art exhibition\, has a very specific remit: just seven works but seven artists\, all Emirati. The theme for this second edition of the show is ‘Light Influences Life’. \nThe artists represent an interesting selection\, and the co-curators Amna Abulhoul and Anthony Bastic deserve credit for their choice. None are associated primarily with light art\, though Ahmad AlAreef would probably regard himself as a multidisciplinary artist who works with photography\, painting\, and sculpture; and both Hessa Alghandi and AlZaina Lootah work in 3D with practices that includes architecture and design. Fatma Lootah\, Mohammed Kazem and Khalid Al Banna are three well-known and well-established names with 2D and 3D work in their CVs; and the wildcard may be jewellery designer Alia Bin Omair. \nThere’s a programme of workshops for kids aaged 3-10\, and one bookable workshop for adults – Mobile Mastery After Dark\, a smartphone photography class that promises to help you master the art of low-light photography. It runs daily 12-18 November\, 5-9pm\, at House of Arts\, Floor 5; it’s free\, but pre-register here for your preferred date. \nDhai Dubai is at Al Wasl Plaza in Expo City\, 6pm to 11pm. \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:Marwan Sahmani: Rupture Into Light
DESCRIPTION:A solo exhibition of works (some never seen before) by the Lebanese artist “whose works emerge from the intersection of identity\, contradiction and modernisation” as the gallery has it. Born in the 1970s in war-torn Beirut\, Sahmani embodies Lebanon’s complex cultural context – where Mediterranean modernism crosses with Arab heritage: his bold abstract expressionism echoes the emotional turmoil of Lebanese history. \n

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Ruba Salameh: Refined Compositions
DESCRIPTION:In the face of genocide\, Palestinian artist Ruba Salameh finds her way forward through abstract painting – weaving her own narrative while connecting across generations to the work of art historian and artist Kamal Boullata. \nThis exhibition reflects primarily on the persistence of certain symbols\, such as the Palestinian flag\, in the work of Palestinian artists. Reducing the colour palette as a gesture encouraged Salameh to revisit an act similar to that of other Palestinian artists before her\, as an act of reclamation. It revealed how\, even with the passing of time\, these visual elements have remained charged with urgency and continue to inhabit the thoughts and practices of Palestinian artists.

SUMMARY:Christos Papadopoulos: Mellowing
DESCRIPTION:In his new production the Greek choreographer Christos Papadopoulos embarks on his inaugural collaboration with the dancers of the Dance On Ensemble\, a group that features performers aged more than 40. Incorporating their knowledge and experience into the creation\, together they explore moments of perception and intensities of the moment that create a lively restlessness\, a permanent vibration in which the spectator is inevitably involved … \nChristos Papadopoulos’ works are fed by an intensely observant approach to movement and often unfold with a lively and meditative power. His attention is focused on the minimal shifts of perception\, the perpetual\, often unnoticed and yet powerful movements that are ever-present in nature\, in everyday life\, within physical phenomena and political contexts. The result promises a memorable and perhaps profound experience. \nIn the theatre foyer at 7.30pm there’s a 20-minute Moving Introduction to the piece. This interactive session invites the audience to explore two to three movement approaches from the choreography – no dance experience is needed\, “just a bit of curiosity”. \nMellowing is presented in partnership with the Goethe-Institut Gulf Region. Use the code MELLOWING20 for a discount on the ticket price. \nAnd if you want more\, there’s a two-hour Choreographic Laboratory 40+ in the afternoon led by Laura Böttinger\, a senior dancer with the Dance On Ensemble. Again\, no prior experience is needed – just a willingness to explore movement. The workshop runs 4-6pm at the Cultural Foundation; it’s free\, but pre-register here.

SUMMARY:Hamad bin Khalifa Symposium on Islamic Art
DESCRIPTION:The theme for VCUarts Qtara’s 11th biennial Symposium on Islamic Art\, Islam and Visual Culture in Contemporary Asia\, aims for a fresh look at how Muslim communities across South\, Southeast\, and East Asia are engaging with Islamic art. The co-chairs\, Hala Auji and Radha Dalal\, have spent a good deal of time on the ground in cities like Hong Kong\, Singapore and Seoul\, meeting with curators\, artists\, and scholars to better understand how Islamic art is being produced\, displayed\, and lived in contemporary Asian contexts; this research has informed a Symposium that is both rigorous and responsive (says the promotional material). It brings together academic insight\, creative practice\, and lived experience to ask how Islamic art continues to evolve across geographies; from photomedia and textiles to architecture and community-based installations\, the programme reflects a spectrum of artistic expression.

SUMMARY:Berklee Abu Dhabi Music Summit
DESCRIPTION:Berklee Abu Dhabi’s “groundbreaking” music summit is intended to explore “the intersection of artistic expression and intelligent innovation” while “addressing the personal and professional journey artists take to discover their unique sound and creative identity”. \nIn practice this means a two-day programme of sessions on performance\, songwriting\, education\, music technology and production\, health and wellness\, and the music business (including rights protection and intellectual property); it’s a curriculum that would indeed seem to offer a practical approach to music and the music business for both emerging artists and more established professionals. \nDay one runs 10am to 7pm\, day 2 is 1pm to 8pm (or later – there’s an outdoor jam session to finish).

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. \nAbove: ‘Busra [sic] creek’\, late 19th to early 20th century

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Elias Izoli: Inside Out ‘25
DESCRIPTION:After a long break from painting\, Izoli has returned with a new body of work centred around “the circus of life” – Izoli uses the circus as a metaphor for the unpredictability and complexity of life as a Syrian citizen. The circus and its family become a symbol of the broader social body\, with each character representing the individuals who comprise the state’s fabric \nRendered in his signature style of fragmented colours\, each portrait speaks of resilience\, illusion\, and “the spectacle of existence”. Each character is confined within their own space\, each gesture reflects the emotional weight and psychological barriers imposed by our world. The figures seem unable to escape or engage with a reality beyond their own world.
