SUMMARY:Youth Takeover 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Jameel’s annual Youth Takeover is the manifestation of the Assembly\, an experimental learning programme designed to foster creative leaders aged 18 to 24 in the UAE\, “inviting the creation and curation of projects reflective of their generation’s areas of interest”. The Assembly 2024-2025 cohort comprises multimedia graphic designer Abrar Kebaili\, visual artist and designer Ayesha Fernandes\, multimedia designer and writer Desirée Barreto\, literary artist Ioanna Orphanide\, poet Jared Maxilom\, researcher and writer Manal Nadeem\, architect and researcher Omar Darwish\, exhibition designer Sanjushrree Subash\, and poet Syed Haider. \nThis year’s theme for the Youth Takeover – a physical takeover of spaces on the Jameel’s ground floor – is titled ‘Spoon Spade Shovel’. It covers experiments in how the Assembly members dig\, sift and stir through the world\, “offering a network of creative experiences as tools for excavation\, reflection and play … The exhibition presents a range of interdisciplinary works that use tools – literal and metaphorical – to question how we make and remake meaning”. These works sit uneasily beside one another\, but their differences are invitations rather than obstacles  “whether you sift or stir\, extract or excavate\, your experience will be shaped by the tool you reach for: its size\, scale\, heft and intent. You are invited to inhabit this instability and co-compose the meanings that emerge … What you take from this exhibition depends on what you bring to it”. \nThe artists are: \nAyesha Fernandes with Svabhu Kohli\nDesirée Barreto with Angie Pais and Mouza Al Hamrani\nIoanna Orphanide with Danae Orphanide and Ilya Akimov\nJared Maxilom with Halo-Halo Experiment\, Vinyl Souk and memoryall\nManal Nadeem with Khaled Esguerra and Jed Bacason\nOmar Darwish with Fatma Al Ali and Maitha Ali\nSanjushrree Subash with Danutė Vaitekūnaitė and Farheen Fatima\nSyed Haider with Hessa Lootah\, Souldier and Aqib Anwar \nBesides the commissioned artworks\, the Youth Takeover 2025 features a public programme.

SUMMARY:Ahmad Nabil: Fetus Exodus
DESCRIPTION:A Jameel Library Commission by the Palestinian artist and educator that explores regional myths and legends through ten monthly texts – chapters in fact\, in digital form – that address an imagined foetus (referred to as a “child of myths”) as it prepares to be born. Through this imagined dialogue\, the foetus is introduced to mythological thought and encouraged to embrace a shared imaginarium. The chapters traverse the entire cycle from creation and birth to resurrection\, encouraging exploration of their commonalities while making space for differences. \nAfter its conclusion on 27 July you can still view the whole project here.

SUMMARY:Shrek the Musical
DESCRIPTION:The final performance of the Abu Dhabi Choral Group’s Summer Revue. This “hilarious and heartwarming” adaptation of the popular film\, a successful Broadway and West End musical (music by Jeanine Tesori\, book and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire) is based on the first Shrek film\, albeit with elements of the sequels: so we have the grumpy but lovable ogre embarking on a quest to rescue the feisty Princess Fiona for the scheming Lord Farquaad. Along the way\, Shrek is joined by a lively cast of fairytale characters\, including his wisecracking sidekick Donkey. There’s a message – “they challenge stereotypes\, discover the meaning of friendship\, and prove that beauty lies within … Shrek The Musical celebrates individuality and self-acceptance” but it’s the jokes\, the repartee\, the songs and the sheer fun that will get you applauding for encores …

SUMMARY:Béchir Boussandel: Tenté par d'autres soleils (Tempted by Other Suns)
DESCRIPTION:The Dubai iteration of this show\, which is presented in collaboration with Kamel Lazaar Foundation and has previously been shown at B7L9 Art Centre in Tunis\, introduces a new body of work in blown glass – a departure from Béchir’s predominantly canvas-based practice. These works centre on the figure of the gleaner\, individuals who collect waste to survive. \nBorn in France but deeply rooted in Bizerte\, Tunisia\, Béchir works across painting\, blown glass\, metal\, and organic materials to tell stories of migration\, urban transformation\, and survival. Through a layered and symbolic approach\, he constructs a material language that feels delicate and durable. The exhibition’s title borrows from French philosopher Claire Marin: “Like migratory birds\, we are always tempted by other suns.” One can’t help but think of the gleaners (known locally as barbechas)\, those who have come from far away\, gleaning from the ground\, some still dreaming of crossing into Europe … \nTo 5 September.

SUMMARY:Dahomey: dir Mati Diop (2024)\,
DESCRIPTION:A timely documentary by French-Senegalese filmmaker and actress Mati Diop which won the Golden Bear at this year’s Berlin International Film Festival. The film follows the return of 26 royal treasures from France to the Republic of Benin\, tracing the impact of colonial plunder and the evolving dialogue around repatriation. The Hollywood Reporter review described it as “richly layered and resonant … This directorial flourish liberates the looted treasures from being mere objects\, with smart use of subjective camera helping to make them come alive as characters”. Recommended.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Hassan Sharif: The Storyteller
DESCRIPTION:Curated by Murtaza Vali\, this exhibition revisits Hassan Sharif’s ‘objects’\, works which expand the definition of ‘craft’ beyond notions of skill\, precision and medium-specific mastery and towards “an experimental\, experiential and embodied practice of learning\, understanding\, and knowing through making”. \nThis exhibition emphasizes materiality\, manufacture\, and form through careful groupings and juxtapositions\, pairing exhibited ‘objects’ with texts that present an account of their crafting and perception. Sharif famously characterised himself as a “single work artist\,” unifying his diverse oeuvre under one conceptual premise. The Storyteller” will attempt to trace some of the myriad material and formal complexities that are otherwise masked by this provocation\, presenting a fragmented biography and (art) history of Sharif through thee works.

SUMMARY:Mama Mia!
DESCRIPTION:The worldwide smash hit arrives in Abu Dhabi with its heartwarming story (the lighthearted and humorous tale of a mother\, her daughter\, and three possible fathers on an idyllic Greek island)\, created by Judy Craymer – who rarely gets the credit she’s due – around the songs of Benny Anderson and Bjorn Ulvaeus. Apparently 65 million people around the world have seen the show\, and there’s a good chance that this extended run on Yas will add substantially to that number … Note that there are separate prices for weekdays (starting at AED 125) and weekends (from AED 200). Before the Friday and Saturday evening performances there’s also an Abba/Mediterranean themed brunch deal of offer at AED 199 per ticket. \nPerformances: \n11 June 7.30pm\n12 June 7.30pm\n13 June 7.30pm\n14 June 1pm\n14 June 6pm\n15 June 1pm\n15 June 6pm \n19 June 7.30pm\n20 June 7.30pm\n21 June 1pm\n21 June 7pm\n22 June 1pm\n22 June 6pm

SUMMARY:Wednesday Night Impro: Maestro
DESCRIPTION:The Courtyard’s most peopular evening of elimination improv. Ten actors converge for a night of scenes\, songs and games based on audience suggestions.

SUMMARY:Tracing the Unseen: Landscapes of Memory and Metaphor
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition brings together four artists from the Atassi Foundation collection – Walid El-Masri\, Farouq Kondakji\, Rida Hus Hus\, and Omar Hamdi – whose work reimagines the landscape not as a fixed geography\, but as a space of memory\, metaphor\, and transformation. Together\, these works resist traditional representations of land or nation; instead\, they explore how landscapes can hold the trace of emotion\, the residue of experience\, and the shifting boundaries of identity. As the Foundation’s blurb puts it: “In this exhibition\, landscape is not where the story begins – it is where it continues to unfold.”.

SUMMARY:Evgeny Khmara: Piano in Motion
DESCRIPTION:The noted Ukrainian double pianist makes classical music accessible without losing its depth\, “blending familiar influences with a modern touch” as the promoter puts it. For this performance he will play both a baby grand and a Roland electric piano\, switching between instruments and sometimes playing both at the same time. We don’t know the programme\, but he’s a talented composer; so it will probably be his own work …

SUMMARY:Mami Wata: dir CJ Obasi (2023)
DESCRIPTION:Much-awarded black-and-white fantasy thriller\, based on Nigerian folklore. Said the LA Times: “That balance between light and dark is how Obasi most potently underscores all his themes: faith and proof\, tradition versus modernity\, the otherworldly alongside the human\, and of course\, Mami Wata’s power to give and take”. \nScreens with Baptized by Fire (dir Kach Offor\, 2024: 15 mins) – a psychedelic exploration of anxiety\, social alienation and the inefficacy of escapism: a regular visit to a dealer in the slums of Lagos takes an unexpected turn and forces this anxious stoner on a different kind of trip. \nThis is the opener for a programme of Friday-evening films selected by Ose Ekore to support the gallery’s current group exhibition time heals\, just not quick enough (runs to 30 July). \n

DESCRIPTION:A chance to see the noted Canadian master guitarist\, composer\, and producer performing live. He’s accompanied by Fethi Nadjem (violin\, mandole)\, Dan Minchom (bass)\, Matt Sellick (guitar)\, and either Matais Recharte or Marito Marques (drums\, cajón\, percussion) – and there’s a special guest star\, top oud soloist Sherine Tohamy. \nKnown for his intoxicating fusion of world music\, Cook has travelled the globe looking for sounds that resonate with him; the result is an innovative mix of flamenco\, jazz\, classical\, and world music from India to Spain\, and on to Cuba and Latin America. “I want to take people to places they haven’t been\,” he said recently: “A place where modern sounds can mix with ancient timbres”. He’s doing two dates here – this one\, and the Cultural Foundation in Abu Dhabi tomorrow (14 June). Highly recommended.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Reynier Llanes: Reverie
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition inspired by French philosopher Gaston Bachelard’s comment on ‘reverie’ – “Reverie is not a mind vacuum. It is rather the gift of an hour which knows the plenitude of the soul”\, a space where imagination and memory intertwine to reveal profound truths about the self and the world. The Cuban painter embodies that vision in this exhibition\, curated by Celine Azem; “his canvases invite viewers into a dreamlike space where personal and collective histories merge … His work does not retreat from life’s struggles but reinterprets them\, transforming them into compositions where emotions\, memories\, and aspirations coexist in harmony”. \nTe exhibition introduces the latest works from Llanes’ The Poet series\, bridging ancestral echoes with contemporary realities; The Poet is an ethereal\, enigmatic figure drifting between memory and imagination\, past and present\, to become a vessel for the viewer’s own reflections. “The Poet is both wanderer and witness\, a keeper of memory embodying the ever-shifting human condition.”

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Thomas Lélu: Calm Down It’s Just Art
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Lélu’s practice interweaves photography\, installation art\, and textual elements\, frequently featuring the appropriation and recontextualisation of imagery from popular culture and media to interrogate themes of contemporary society\, consumerism\, and media representation. His methodology of exploration\, archiving\, and contextualization positions the French artist as “one of the archaeologists of our present epoch”\, as the gallery puts it.
