SUMMARY:Henok Melkamzer
DESCRIPTION:Featuring more than 100 works\, many on view for the first time\, this exhibition is the largest solo presentation of artworks by Ethiopian telsem artist Henok Melkamzer. Traditionally termed as healing or talisman art\, telsem is a sophisticated visual art form that incorporates philosophy and intricate themes and includes various symbols\, drawings and texts imbibed with deeper meanings. Combining ancient inspirations with modern idioms\, Melkamzer’s canvas works reconstruct the conventions of this traditional art form and broaden the understanding of ‘modern’ art through their visual sophistication and complex conceptualisation. \nOrganised in collaboration with The Africa Institute\, Sharjah\, the exhibition is curated by Elizabeth Giorgis\, Associate Professor of Art History\, Theory and Criticism at The Africa Institute. \nTo 10 March.

SUMMARY:Vantage Point Sharjah (VPS 11)
DESCRIPTION:Sharjah Art Foundation’s annual photography exhibition returns for its 11th edition\, featuring artists “whose work challenges established notions of photographic practices” – four individuals and one collective\, chosen through an international open call that received more than 350 applications. \nThis year VPS identifies and supports early-career photographers from Africa and Asia (those who were born there\, who are currently based there\, or who are part of the diaspora). “The selected artists embody diverse approaches but share overlapping tendencies\,” say the organisers\, citing “the pursuit of contemporary image-making techniques\, the recontextualisation of found or inherited images and engagement with the visual afterlives of colonialist legacies”: \n\nOumaima Abaraghe (b.1999\, Casablanca) uses collage techniques and digital manipulation to reconstruct Morocco’s fragmentary colonial archive\, signalling its inherent fallibility\nYashna Kaul (b.1995\, Mumbai) unearths the secrets embedded in her family’s photo album and reveals how the framing of a moment can shape personal histories and collective memory.\nMohamed Mahdy (b.1996\, Giza) uses emotive storytelling to document the displacement of the fishing community of El Maks\, Alexandria\, and captures the generational impact of urban redevelopment policies.\nClea Rekhou (b.1988\, Paris) contrasts a series of soft-lit\, intimate family portraits with narratives of generational violence\, suggesting the complexity of human relationships.\nPostbox Ghana – Nana Ofosu Adjei (b.1993\, Accra)\, Courage Dzidula Kpodo (b.1999\, Kumasi) and Manuela Nebuloni (b.1986\, Milan) – resituate popular postcard images of post-independence Ghana within the country’s contemporary urban landscape and question the aspirations of nation-state imagery.\n\nWorks by these emerging artists will be displayed in two exhibition modes: independent presentations of the artists’ individual practices and a communal storytelling space that interweaves their combined practices. \nVPS 11 also introduces a one-on-one professional mentoring programme. Participating artists will be paired with cultural practitioners or industry professionals of their choice so that they can improve their skills and take advantage of a unique learning experience led by experts in the field. \nThe exhibition is open 9am to 9pm\, Saturday to Thursday\, and 4-9pm on Friday; it runs to 14 January. \nAbove: Oumaima Abaraghe\, History as they present it (2022)

SUMMARY:Cross Cultural Dialogue: From Ancient Script to Contemporary Art
DESCRIPTION:A really interesting panel discussion presented by Museum of the Future as a contribution to Dubai Culture’s ongoing Calligraphy Biennale. The session promises to explore the role of calligraphy across diverse cultures\, local communities\, and heritages\, looking at how it serves as a catalyst for cross-cultural dialogue\, fosters intercultural understanding and paves the way for meaningful collaborations. The discussion will also illuminate the evolution of traditional calligraphy in contemporary art and design. \nThe panel: \n\nVictor Ekpuk artist (above)\nProf Rachel Ama Asaa Engmann Director of Christiansborg Archaeological Heritage Project\, Ghana\nProf Awam Amkpa Dean of Arts and Humanities NYUAD\nAlia Al Shamsi Cultural Programming Manager at Louvre Abu Dhabi\nProf Antoine Abi Aad Assistant Professor in the College of Arts and Creative Enterprises at ZU\n\nRebecca Anne Proctor moderates. \nIt’s free\, but in the Museum’s Auditorium; we think this means you’ll have to pay for general admission (AED 149).

SUMMARY:Laughter Factory: “Menace To Society” Tour
DESCRIPTION:First of two final Dubai gigs for the latest Laughter Factory tour – Dana Alexander (originally from Canada\, now based there and in the UK) tours a lot and has been a hit in Dubai before; her style has been described as “smart\, irreverent and revolutionary” which bodes well. Jimmy Mcghie is another hard-working international tourer\, whose 2017 Edinburgh Festival Fringe show was reviewed in the Scotsman as “one of the most accomplished hours of comedy you will find here this month. Or\, to be honest\, anywhere\, any time …” If loose Women was more outrageous\, Dubai’s very own Bronwyn Byrnes would be a regular – we’re promised “a hilarious journey of life in Dubai”. Also UAE-based is Miqdaad Dohadwala\, who founded the comedy collective VDesi Laughs and has been seen regularly at gigs in Dubai.

SUMMARY:Amr Diab
DESCRIPTION:The Egyptian singer (and songwriter\, and actor) has a magnetic stage presence and a great back catalogue\, based on more than 30 albums and four decades of contribution to the Arabic and global music scene – and especially his way of fusing traditional Arabic songs with modern pop and electronic styles. Should be a good gig.

SUMMARY:Nine Nodes of Non-Being
DESCRIPTION:A group exhibition with works by nine artists\, thinkers\, filmmakers\, and researchers from East\, South\, Southeast Asia\, the MENA region\, and South America. Curated by Ritika Biswas\, it conceives of climate-related extinction through various states of negation and excess emerging from each of the nine artistic nodes to examine ways of existing more equitably within our ongoing crises. “The artistic worlds presented here are not merely signifiers of extinction but real propositions for the unknown … Through these excessive modes\, we think about ways of non-being and the climate apocalypse itself in ways we have likely never considered—through kitsch\, rest\, cringe\, bathos\, abstraction\, silliness\, melancholy\, madness\, and the weird”. \nThe artists: \n\nMariam AlZayani\nFayçal Baghriche\nClemencia Echeverri\nUNMAKE LAB\nMalik Irtiza Zara Mahmood\nAmba Sayal-Bennett\nApichatpong Weerasethakul\nAyman Zedani\n\nNine Nodes of Non-Being emerged from a year-long journey as part of the 421 Curatorial Development Exhibition Program in collaboration with The Bombay Institute for Critical Analysis and Research (BICAR). \nTo 31 December.

SUMMARY:Sharjah International Film Festival for Children and Youth (SIFF)
DESCRIPTION:SIFF is back for its tenth edition on 22 to 28 October with an official selection of 81 films from 37 countries (slightly down on last year\, which saw 90+ from 47 countries). But “the new edition promises to exceed audience expectations” said Sheikha Jawaher Bint Abdullah Al Qasimi\, SIFF’s director\, in her press statement; certainly there will be three world premieres and no fewer than 53 Middle East premieres. \nThere are screenings in seven categories\, all competitive – Student Films\, GCC Short Films\, International Shorts\, Animations\, Animated Features\, and Feature Films. There’s also a Green Carpet platform which will offer audiences the chance to see films (four of them) with a director’s Q&A; there are also eight talks and ‘open discussions’. \nWe can’t currently tell you much more than that; the website does list what films are being shown and when\, but otherwise it’s largely bereft of useful information and clearly has some very outdated pages (including the director’s message\, which still refers to the online-only Festival of 2021). Apparently ticket prices are the normal charges for Vox films and you can book them online via the Vox website as usual; the main location is Vox City Centre Al Zahia but we understand Mirdif City Centre and City Centre Ajman will have the screenings as well. \nAbove: still from Titina\, dir Kajsa Naess (Norway/Belgium\, 2022)

SUMMARY:Asma Belhamar: Solid Void
DESCRIPTION:This solo exhibition captures the tensions between shifting natural geographies and dynamic urban environments\, featuring new works inspired by the UAE’s architectural history. It narrates the topographic evolution of the UAE\, as influenced by Western classical modernity\, contemporary traditionalism in Islam\, and the historic trade relationships that shaped much of that landscape; the artist’s interpretation reveals the diversity and fragmentation of the design sensibilities that have made the nation’s aesthetic identity what it is today. \nSolid Void is the result of the 2023 edition of 421’s Artistic Development Program\, organised in collaboration with The Institute for Emerging Art. \nTo 31 December.

SUMMARY:Karama Arts Club: Local Matters – The Making of a Music Scene
DESCRIPTION:The intelligent networking session for creative peers is back after its summer break with an extended evening session – a social (with private bar) for members and guests (5.30 to 8.30) followed by the meat of the evening\, a panel discussion on the music scene locally. Panellists will “get right back to basics to dissect the current climate and present practical solutions to work towards a thriving local music scene” including “how the relentless pursuit of imported acts has overshadowed the potential of local talent and stunted the growth of a vibrant homegrown music scene”. \nThe panel: \n\nCharl Chaka Dubai-based creative\, artist\, and DJ who’s had a hugely influential role in shaping the local music scene since 2004. He’s responsible for INFUSION magazine\, too\nRima Rached Founder of Third Eye Crew and the Electric Days events (now rebranded as Vibe Series). Rima’s talent for spotting emerging artists has contributed to global dance music’s growth in the Middle East\nJayesh Veralkar Another of the top movers n shakers in Dubai’s alternate music scene. Part of the Dolby Middle East & Africa team\, founder of Vinyl Souk DXB\, co-founder of and a resident selector at Honeycomb Hi-Fi\nKaram Toubba A producer at Phenomena Productions\, creators of the Last Seen Live platform for local musicians. He’s played in bands since 2004\, was Music Director for Decibel DXB\, curates MiZa Community Radio\, and DJs himself\n\nTarik Omar moderates. His chops include Bahrain’s FarmFest\, establishing community arts space Malja in collaboration with Red Bull\, working with MUTEK’s DigiLab in Dubai\, and a day job as AV Coordinator at the Sharjah Art Foundation. \nThat should run from 8.30 to around 9.45pm\, and afterwards the private bar is open till 11. Incidentally\, KAC has stuck a new label on its panel sessions – the ‘Arts Unfiltered Series’\, which better describes the vibe they want to nurture. \nAccess to the Club’s evenings is free\, sort of\, but (a) you have to be a member … and membership is free\, too\, but you have to be nominated by an existing club member since this “ensures the sound\, organic growth of a trusted community”; and (b) the venue requires a minimum F&B spend in advance. These packages start at AED 75 for three soft drinks or AED 110 for two alcoholic drinks. But hey you were going to buy a drink anyhow\, right?

DESCRIPTION:Exactly what it says: a regular Monday evening of scenes\, stories and narrative improvisation influenced by audience suggestions and featuring the Courtyard Playhouse’s most experienced improv performers plus guests. There’s a new angle to the event for this season – as well as the standard improv there’s the Courtyard’s first ever bilingual improv format featuring the three Ahmeds. \nClassic Courtyard stuff.

SUMMARY:Mathilde Magnier: What We Leave Behind
DESCRIPTION:This series of images of the UAE\, started when Mathilde Magnier Rabate moved to the Emirates in 2014\, attempts to document the impact of the country’s rapid transformation on the Emirati traditional landscape and ecosystems. In a part of the world where nature long remained untouched\, the photographer’s aim is to question how such changes may transform the local environment as well as the relationship between people and their natural habitat. \nMathilde Magnier Rabate was featured at this year’s RAK Fine Arts Festival. We were also impressed with a thoughtful and sharply-realised essay on change shown at Alliance Française Dubai a year ago. This one should be as good. \nTo 13 November.
