SUMMARY:The Climb: Imah Dumagay’s Comedy Concert Feat. Amr Elassal
DESCRIPTION:Dubai’s very own Filipino funnywoman takes to the stage for a Dubai Comedy Festival gig that also features a performance by Amr Elassal (who happens to be her husband). Dumagay’s sharp wit and relatable humour are at their best when she’s talking about her journey from a non-fancy background to navigating a higher-class lifestyle. “A heartwarming and entertaining show that blends humour\, cultural diversity\, and the joy of finding laughter in life’s many ascents\,” says the blurb.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Faisal Samra: Immortal Moment II – Coping with the Shock
DESCRIPTION:A solo exhibition with the second body of work from Faisal Samra’s Immortal Moment project\, artworks created through the accumulation of instances that push the viewer to question the opportunities of a single moment. In the first chapter of this project\, Faisal describes the technique as an expression of emotions; for the current show he defines the outcome as a shock; the exhibition will reveal the process of Coping with the Shock. \n“The dialogue between the abstract and figurative\, conceptually or formalistically\, is essential to Faisal’s work. Time\, being one of the most abstract ideas becomes figurative when Faisal visually notes down specific points in time through the use of charcoal and paint. The result is abstract\, but the final creation becomes figurative through several interventions\, which represent a culmination of temporal instances.” \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Mohammed Kazem and Vikram Divecha: Rest
DESCRIPTION:Two of the most distinctive Dubai-based artists with works that explore the intricate relationship between labour\, rest\, and the ever-evolving urban landscape of the UAE. “Considering the dynamics of human existence\, alternating between cycles of depletion and restoration\, the exhibition highlights the vital role of rest in the perpetual movement of cities\,” says the gallery. “Rest challenges societal norms that discourage rest\, aiming to disrupt the prevailing narrative and explore possibilities on the other side of exhaustion …”

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Jamal Bassiouni: The World of Mirrors
DESCRIPTION:A solo exhibition for the noted Egyptian artist’s vivid and poignant paintings exploring ancient Egyptian beliefs regarding enlightenment and the afterlife. As the artist puts it: “In The world of Mirrors we say what is above is what is below\, a soul to heaven and a body to earth. A journey starts as the sun sets inside of us and we are to receive the resurrection while we live. A process of pain and suffering to happiness and pleasure. Never forget that the words are\nnot the reality\, only reality is the reality; pictures\, symbols\, lines that cut through time\, without a beginning and without an end”. \n

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Ahmad Moualla: Combustions
DESCRIPTION:The Syrian artist’s first solo exhibition with this gallery (and his first show in eight years) is a series of new works on paper created in 2023. Considered one of the pioneers of modernism and expressionism in Syria\, Moualla was the first of his peers to introduce interactive performance to his work; though he no longer incorporates performance\, the act and process of creating his works is a performance in itself – he’s known for his dramatic\, intensely theatrical large-scale canvasses. \n“Blurring the boundaries between fact and fiction\, consciousness and subconsciousness\, Moualla reflects on the ambiguities that are constantly in our minds and part of our daily lives” says the gallery. ” Calling for a reconsideration of socially rooted axioms\, specifically in Arab society and through the process of a war\, the artist intentionally poses questions ideas of power\, free-will\, and choices.” \n  \n

SUMMARY:Liebelei: dir Max Ophuls (1933)
DESCRIPTION:Based on a story by Artur Schnitzler\, Liebelei is a touching love story and one of cinema’s most memorable romances:in pre WWI Vienna\, two army officers meet a pair of pretty girls (one of them played by Magda Schneider\, mother of Romy). A love affair develops between cavalry Lieutenant Fritz and Christine\, the daughter of an opera violinist. … but there’s a tragic ending. The film is a cut above the costume-based tearjerkers common to the era\, though; Ophuls demonstrated a lightness of touch in his filming\, and the plot is surprisingly nuanced (for instance\, Christine’s father is prepared to allow her an exceptional degree of freedom for her age because he feels remorse about being overly protective of her older sister and forcing her into spinsterhood). \nLiebelei screens in a double bill with (1948)\, Ophuls’ Hollywood vehicle for Joan Fontaine and Louis Jourdan. It’s also a bittersweet story\, albeit without the same catastrophic ending … \nThe films show in Goethe-Institut’s CineKlub programme; all films are introduced by film scholar Peter Scarlet\, who curated the series. It kicks movies made by German émigré filmmakers who had successful careers in Hollywood\, and each movie night is a double feature. There will be a Q&A and discussion with food and drink after the screenings.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Kenia Almaraz Murillo: Invitation to a Mystical Dreamland
DESCRIPTION:The first solo exhibition in the region for the Bolivian artist is a group of six new and five existing works that represent “a journey into a dreamlike universe where her dreams blend vivid memories with powerful symbolic language”.

SUMMARY:Amir Khojasteh: Living in a Burning House
DESCRIPTION:“Amidst the unsettled times of an uprising in Iran\, grappling with uncertainties\, sadness\, and paradoxes\, artist Amir Khojasteh sought solace in his studio and tried to make sense of what was happening … In this topsy-turvy world\, the artist persisted in painting and crafting head sculptures of the divs\, as if triumphing over them in a parallel timeline” (a div in Persian mythology is a supernatural creature or demon\, often depicted as a powerful and malevolent entity with magical abilities). Khojasteh’s sculptures symbolise victory over the divs\, capturing the demons in their defeated state. \nAlongside the heads are paintings that echo monotype print accidents and textures on canvas. Every painting can be read as a self-portrait or a commentary on a bizarre situation. “Dazed by the smoke of the ongoing fire\, one will need to find ways to make that situation more apprehensible. Khojasteh laughs at what he witnessed\, and through this laughter\, he exposes its contingency\, its ephemerality\, and irreality [sic]”. \nTo 28 May. \nAbove: Amir Khojasteh\, Head of Div No8 (2024) \n
