SUMMARY:An Odyssey of Identity
DESCRIPTION:A group show for six African artists\, curated by Celine Azem and exploring the nature of identity. “The exhibition draws on the influential theories of Bell Hooks\, emphasising the importance of compartmentalising existence and acknowledging the ever-evolving construct of individuality” according to the gallery. “The artists’ works reflect the interplay of diverse cultural and social spectrums that shape individual experiences\, showcasing unique perspectives on the concept of identity and inviting critical exploration of the nuanced and multidisciplinary nature of their African heritage.” \nThe artists: \n\nBoris Anje\nCollin Sekajugo\nKansiime Brian Lister\nChristine Nyatho\nFlorence Nanteza\nCarson Buka\n\nTo 5 July. \nAbove: Carson Buka\, Dream Come True

SUMMARY:Rima Chahine: Almaz
DESCRIPTION:A solo exhibition for the self-taught Lebanese-Canadian artist who “explores the human condition through abstract art in vivid colours and bold brushstrokes” that “embody fearlessness\, aggression and an impressionistic style”. Chahine’s works are undeniably emotional\, based on the experiences of her life\,; “each painting has a message\, a name\, and an interior\,” Chahine says. “I can tell which painting is right for someone. When I meet someone\, I know where they are in life and can see what they want\, need and which painting would match their character.” \nTo 5 June. \nAbove: Rima Chahine\, Cardiac (2022)

SUMMARY:The Jazz Garden: Denise King
DESCRIPTION:Ms King is “an expressive\, big-voiced singer who combines jazz with elements of R&B\, blues and gospel” as her blurb puts it. She does sing rather well – she’s from Philadelphia\, which probably helps\, and she’s been on the circuit for a while. She does the standards\, but she’s particularly good at jazzy interpretations of rock and soul hits. \nDoors open at 7pm\, King is on at 9pm with the Alexey Cheremizov Jazz Quartet\, and the evening winds up around 1am. The price buys you a stool and you have to queue for your drinks; pay more\, and you can get served at a shared barrel\, a table\, or the VIP lounge.

SUMMARY:Jameel Arts Centre Youth Takeover
DESCRIPTION:The annual Jameel Arts Centre Youth Takeover – a physical takeover of the Jameel’s spaces by the eight members of The Assembly 2022-2023 – features multiple audiovisual and artwork interventions around the stairs\, passageways and galleries 9 and 10. \nThe Assembly is an annual talent development programme designed to support young artistic leadership in the UAE. Each year\, eight creatives aged 18-24 are selected for a programme that focusses on curatorial practices as a learning exercise\, responding to ongoing discourse while accessing Art Jameel’s network and opportunities. This year’s was designed\, curated and facilitated by Shama Nair\, independent curator\, researcher\, cultural projects manager and an alumnus of the 2021-22 Assembly. \nThe theme of this year’s takeover is composite\, asking “what makes us?”. The principal exhibition\, eight original commissions from young artists\, proposes that the self holds multiple sources and components; “the artworks herein\, compositions in their own right\, exist in dense and relational dialogue. Their layers stack up over time\, like the Earth’s stratas of rock\, compressed over millions of years. In coming together\, these composite voices meld and negotiate substances\, placements\, gain new meaning and condense into a shared form of immensity …” \nThe commissioned artists\, including some Assembly members and young UAE-based artists\, are: \n\nAbdallah El Abora with Dima Abou Zannad\nAlla Abdunabi\nAssi Abogado with Nathaniel Enriquez\nAuguste Nomeikaite\nBilal Bashir with Ali Khaleel\nJoetto with Mariam Haddad\nKarno Dasgupta\nRaghe Farah\n\nThe 2023 Youth Takeover commissions are presented in conjunction with artwork loans from the Art Jameel Collection. The 2023 Takeover also features “public programmes that offer visitors space to nurture and explore their own composite self” — details to follow (check the website). \nThe Assembly 2022-2023 cohort members are artist Hala El Abora\, artist and architect Farah Ali\, visual artist Bilal Bashir\, interdisciplinary researcher and artist Karno Dasgupta\, artist Ronald Ekore\, multidisciplinary artist Nathaniel Enriquez\, photographer\, filmmaker and writer Auguste Nomeikaite\, and visual designer Saba Sayfaiee. \nTo 28 May.

SUMMARY:Georgii Uvs: The Wings
DESCRIPTION:The regional debut for the UK-based abstract expressionist\, curated by Ellen Nash. He says his art can be seen as people’s perception of the material and psychological worlds and their desire to understand the universe through increasing self-awareness; “Uvs’ works of art are not intended to display objects or specific feelings\, they urge viewers to delve into themselves and reach deep within the subconscious\, uncovering primitive sensations and revealing the collective sense of the archetypal visual language”. Characteristic of his style right now is use of UV-sensitive pigments\, such that his painting change when lit by UV … \nTo 24 May. \nAbove: Georgii Uvs\, Wings #24 (and below\, with UV)

SUMMARY:Coded Gestures
DESCRIPTION:A new Dubai gallery space  opens with this group show for five conceptual artists\, curated by Nadine Khalil: Fatma Al Ali\, Mona Ayyash and Khalid Jauffer from the UAE plus Alexander Ugay (Kazakhstan) and Minja Gu (South Korea). The theme is the creative gesture as “a means of invisible labor\, exploring it as a source of repetitive vocabularies\, ultimately becoming a compelling way to look at the disciplining of bodies and forms … The exhibition connects the idea of psychological absence with the presence and absence of the body in performance\, ultimately questioning the core notion of labor itself”. \nThe exhibition opens with a live performance of Minja Gu’s House Tea de la Maison de la Casa (2023) a tea ceremony in which the artist invites all viewers to hundreds of tea infusions\, invoking the role of participatory exchange. It is presented alongside the documentation of a recent site-specific act of tea-making the artist performed in the UAE with the local community\, commissioned by the gallery. \nAlexander Ugay tackles social alienation through imaginaries and archives via the video More than a Hundred Thousand Times (2019-20 – Korean labor migrants in post-Soviet states) and AI-generated imagery of the Korean diaspora (Unknown Return\, 2023). \nFatma Al Ali’s installation of stacked bricks\, My mother told me not to collect bricks (2020) reveals disparities and the embedded relationship between individual and collective systems. Khalid’s piece\, my job is to look at the sunset (2023)\, is an incessant documentation of daily sunsets printed in real time and mounted in the gallery throughout the 44 days of the exhibition. \nTwo other takes on repetition are presented with Minja Gu’s 11-hour documentation of her version of a marathon done in two days in 42.195 (2006) and Mona Ayyash’s pixelated video\, Trampoline (2015) featuring athletes jumping repetitively. \nTo 16 July. \nAbove: Mona Ayyash\, Trampoline (2015).

SUMMARY:Tsuyoshi Hisakado: Polite Existence
DESCRIPTION:Now we think this could be one of the highlights of the art year locally: it will be Tsuyoshi Hisakado’s first exhibition in the region (he shows mainly in his native Japan and the Pacific Rim\, with a foray to the 2019 Venice Biennale as well). The show features a wide body of work using a variety of techniques and materials – among them sound\, light\, sculpture\, drawing\, and large-scale immersive installations. \nAs the Jameel puts it\, “Hisakado’s multi-form practice questions the order of space\, time\, and other natural forces that inform and shape our everyday lives …” His practice also focuses on the seemingly mundane aspects of everyday life\, and his work often highlights subtle\, fleeting experiences. They can be delicate\, forceful\, thoughtful\, and sometimes all three; you could stand for a long time before his ongoing crossfades series of works on paper that feature a spiral of minute numbers derived from the mathematical constant pi – surely an allusion to infinity\, with subtle distortions caused by random splashes of ink. It’s a kind of visual poetry. \nYes\, we’re impressed by Hisakado and looking forward to this show. Polite Existence is curated by Anna Bernice delos Reyes and Yu Iseki following a curatorial exchange between Japan and the UAE in 2022; the exhibition is produced by Art Jameel in collaboration with the Japan Foundation and coincides with the 50th Anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United Arab Emirates and Japan. \nTo 24 September.
