Foreword 

As part of its commitment to 

support the most vital and 

stimulating of today’s Arab artists, 

and to establish a platform on 

which their creations can be more 

widely shown and discussed, 

the Cultural Department of 

TDIC is proud to present the 

new exhibition Disorientation II, 

The Rise and Fall of Arab Cities, 

featuring an exciting and thoughtprovoking 

selection of works by 16 

artists from the Arab world. 

Curated by the distinguished Jack 

Persekian and organised by TDIC 

in collaboration with the Sharjah 

Art Foundation, Disorientation 

II is in many ways an important 

new undertaking for the cultural 

programme of Abu Dhabi. Its opening 

has coincided with the first edition 

of Abu Dhabi Art, the Emirate’s new 

annual celebration of modern and 

contemporary art, and therefore 

came at a moment when artists, 

curators, gallerists, collectors, 

journalists and art-lovers from 

around the world were visiting the 

new global crossroads of Abu Dhabi. 

Moreover, Disorientation II has 

inaugurated Manarat Al Saadiyat, the 

new exhibition centre conceived by 

TDIC to showcase the exhibitions and 

artistic programs that are laying the 

groundwork for the grand institutions 

of the Cultural District. 

But above all, Disorientation II 

represents another step forward 

for TDIC’s initiatives on behalf of 

the artists of the Arab world. TDIC 

has already presented Emirati 

Expressions, the first major survey 

of contemporary art in the UAE, with 

its extensive accompanying series 

of public programmes, and with 

Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and 

Heritage (ADACH) has organised 

Abu Dhabi Art in such a way that 

today’s Arab artists are joined 

together with artists from Europe, 

Asia and North America. Now, with 

Disorientation II, TDIC invites the 

public to see how Arab artists are 

reflecting on themes of vital current 

significance, as they consider the 

interplay in their society between 

unity and division, a generation ago 

and today. 

We welcome you to Disorientation II, 

The Rise and Fall of Arab Cities.

DISORIENTATION II 

BY JACK PERSEKIAN 

Disorientation II * looks at the era of 

Egyptian President Jamal Abdel- 

Nasser as a moment of rupture 

when the repercussions of the 

failure of his pan-Arab unity plan 

and the ensuing Arab nationalism 

fractured fragile structures meant 

to stand up and endure in the face 

of outside hegemony then, and in 

its wake shattered in a succession 

of breakdowns, wars, displacement, 

and miseries. 

Disorientation Disorientation Disorientation II II II counterpoints a 

utopian era with the reality of today. 

The fragile watercolour renderings 

and nostalgic photographs, images 

and settings from the sixties 

and seventies, seen as one is 

ushered into the exhibition, are 

juxtaposed against an imposing 

body of sculptures, monumental 

photographs and installations, 

somber videos and performances 

that follow, and project a certain 

disdain for the helpless, unforgiving 

situation of loss and conflict 

experienced in the Arab world today. 

This text does not try to explicate 

the various artworks and projects 

that the artists have contributed 

towards Disorientation Disorientation Disorientation II, II and in no 

way does it attempt to untangle the 

complex and knotted history that 

brackets this exhibition. It is simply 

a series of syncopated thoughts 

that try to negotiate a path through 

the labyrinth of the artists’ thoughtprovoking 

and intricate series of 

articulations and representations 

that comprise the show. 

The exhibition opens with a 

flashback in time with Hala 

Elkousy’s work On red nails, palm 

trees trees trees and and and other other other icons; icons an intimate 

room full of hundreds of images, 

video screens, side lamps and 

chairs, all reminiscent of a time 

some half-a-century ago, when 

visual representations reflected 

a certain utopia, similar to Jamal

Abdel Nasser’s Pan-Arab unity 

vision. One cannot stop the feeling 

of nostalgia for those days, for 

an era when hope of salvation 

from occupation and western 

hegemony was still possible. 

Art of the era and most other 

forms of visual representation 

showed and expressed optimism 

for the possibilities of freedom: 

liberated societies, equality and 

justice for workers and farmers, 

and democratic rule. We see in 

one of the newspaper clippings 

hanging in Hala Elkousy’s room 

the legendary Che Guevara posing 

for a picture with farmers. Elkousy 

tells that during that period the 

likes of Che Guevara, Jean-Paul 

Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir 

would visit the villagers and 

farmers in Egypt, not only the city 

of Cairo as is the case today. 

As we leave this room, Ali 

Jabri’s sketchbooks, drawings 

and renderings [from the early 

seventies] paint an outsider’s 

perspective of Cairo; Elkousy’s 

hometown. Yet he still captured the 

moment when Egypt in general, 

and Cairo in particular, was at the 

center of the Arab consciousness, 

embodying the values of unity, 

selflessness and revolution. Jabri, 

like an anthropologist, archeologist, 

architect and sociologist, all in one, 

uncovers the intricate details and 

subtleties that made that place and 

that period in time so special. The 

popular saying goes “the devil is in 

the details” but Jabri’s work tends 

to chime more with Ludwig Mies van 

der Rohe’s “God is in the details”. 

Yet a shift took place in Jabri’s 

collages from the eighties. Driven 

by a series of disappointments, 

saddened by the wars in the eighties 

and let down by the duplicity of 

politicians and leaders, Jabri’s 

collages from this period depict the 

hypocrisy, disjointed lives, abundant 

lies and anguish of the time. 

Closure for the period comes 

with Wael Shawky’s Telematch 

Sadat. Sadat The title and staging of the 

work reference the world-famous 

German television competition 

“Telematch” broadcast in the 

seventies and eighties where teams 

from different German towns played 

games in costume. For Telematch 

Sadat Sadat Sadat Shawky asked children of 

a village to reenact the Anwar Al 

Sadat assassination of 1981, which 

symbolically marked the end of 

the period that defined Egypt as 

a leading force in the Arab world 

and ushering in fragmentation 

and disillusionment that became 

the currency of the day. Egypt’s 

expulsion from the Arab world’s 

political arena commenced in 1978 

when Anwar Al Sadat signed the 

Camp David Peace Accords with 

Israel. Egypt was suspended from 

the League of Arab States whose 

headquarters were moved to Tunis. 

Yet more importantly this period was 

to define a decade of bloodshed, 

wars, losses, displacement and 

instability. The Iran-Iraq war came 

at a great cost in lives and economic 

damage to be followed by the 

invasion of Kuwait by the Iraqi army 

in 1990. The civil war in Lebanon, 

interjected by the Israeli invasion, 

destroyed the entire country, 

wasted many lives and resulted in 

the expulsion of the PLO to Tunis, 

thus crippling its influence and 

operations, and definitely leaving the 

Palestinian people living under the 

Israeli occupation feeling stranded 

and in a state of bitter defeat. The 

Sabra and Shatilla massacre come 

to top everything, as the final nail 

in the coffin. The death of Algerian 

President Houari Boumédienne in 

December 1978 signified, in one 

way or another, the opening of a 

Pandora’s box, the ramifications of 

which would spill a lot of Algerian 

blood and destabilize the country for 

more than two decades. The way the 

Syrian regime dealt with the Muslim

Brotherhood’s armed insurgency 

(1976 - 1982) in Hama put a definite 

end to any challenger to the Baath 

party rule there. Jordan witnessed 

the most severe protests and social 

upheavals in its history during the 

1980s, and the People’s Democratic 

Republic of Yemen sustained some 

60,000 casualties in the violent 

clashes of 1986. Sudan witnessed 

two coup d’états and the escalation 

of the civil war between the south 

and the north. And these are only a 

partial account of what happened 

in the eighties. The nineties 

witnessed still other horrific stories, 

catastrophes and fiascos but no 

less than those of the last decade. 

Hopelessness, helplessness and 

a very bleak prospect, if any, for a 

better future leaves many people in 

the Arab world desperate and angry, 

resentful and, if not bitter, deeply 

cynical at the very least. 

There are several references to 

monuments in this exhibition and 

each one is saturated in its own 

way with the prevalent sense of 

disdain, conflict and division. Beirut 

Caoutchouc Caoutchouc Caoutchouc by Marwan Rechmaoui 

is fraught with these divisions, 

and the societal fragmentation of 

Lebanon. A map made of thick, 

flattened rubber is etched to divide 

it into 60 pieces, not simply to 

delineate different neighborhoods 

of Beirut, but to delve deeper into 

the history of the sociopolitical, 

and economic causes of the 

movement, settlement, and division 

of this complex urban cartography. 

Rechmaoui investigates architecture 

and cartography to try to make 

sense of demography and society, 

working like an anthropologist, to 

reveal strata after strata of the city’s 

pseudo-unity. Rechmaoui’s second 

work in the exhibition, A Monument 

for for for the the the living living living is a three-dimensional 

human-size scaled replica of Burj 

Al Murr, a skyscraper at the edge of 

Beirut that was left unfinished due 

to structural weaknesses, and used 

by various militia factions during the 

civil war in Lebanon as a sniper’s 

nest, a prison and a place to hold 

hostages. The building, a landmark 

in the city in a strategic position, was 

left unused and dilapidated after the 

war, with its tower too tall to knock 

down and too dense to implode. 

Thus it became an indestructible 

monument of a civil war that has 

never been resolved or reconciled, 

living on as a hulking memorial in 

the city’s horizon. The monument 

becomes a monument not for the 

dead of the civil war, but for those 

who survived, and in recreating it 

Rechmaoui speaks to the different 

power manifestations a monument 

can allude to, or inhabit. 

Beirut is almost a miniature model 

of Arab countries where different 

classes, ethnicities, and religions 

seem to collide in their attempts 

to reconcile, where migrants and 

refugees - Armenians, Palestinians, 

Iraqis and others - are in constant 

flux, and where corruption and 

power struggles are at play. Yet it 

is very important here to halt the 

flow of the exhibition, to interrupt 

this evolving quasi-narrative of 

the contemporary history of the 

Arab world. One pauses as if to 

observe the minute of silence 

demanded from an audience in 

honour and memory of the dead 

and the martyred in any other 

public event. In Disorientation II 

we are silent in memory of the 

Sabra and Shatila massacre. 

There is no need to explain the 

background and tell the story of the 

massacre in this text, but it is very 

important to mark this event which 

so poignantly encompasses the 

plight and calamities of refugees 

and migrants, while also marking 

a pinnacle of achievement for the 

juntas in their struggle for power. 

Monika Borgmann’s film Massaker 

allows us this possibility, for the

first time, through the confessions 

of the perpetrators. Six people 

who took part in the massacre 

of the Sabra and Shatila refugee 

camps’ Palestinian inhabitants, 

“both on orders and on their own 

personal initiative” as we learn in 

the film, narrate the particulars 

of their heinous acts. They also 

reveal details of the relationship 

between the Lebanese Forces 

Christian militia who perpetrated 

the massacre - the six protagonists 

of Borgmann’s film were members 

- and the Israeli army which was 

in control of Beirut in September, 

1982, and which surrounded the 

camps and provided protected entry 

for the Lebanese Forces Christian 

militia to carry out the genocide. 

Beirut is not the only site of 

conflict though. We learn from 

Hriar Sarkissian’s Execution 

Squares Squares Squares that other places that 

might at first glance seem tranquil 

and serene are fraught with 

power struggles and extremes. 

Sarkissian’s photographs depict a 

number of urban squares in three 

Syrian cities, Aleppo, Latakia, and 

Damascus, where public executions 

of civil criminals take place. These 

landscapes in the early morning 

give a sense of foreboding, and in 

contrast to the busy clamor of the 

day, the squares are empty and 

tense. The untraceable ending of 

lives in those squares comes as 

a counterpoint to Rechmaoui’s 

Monument Monument Monument for for for the the the living. living Here 

Sarkissian attempts to represent 

those whose lives have been 

taken, using the monumental 

photographic format of emptiness. 

We know that the squares and 

streets will soon be filled with life; 

yet there is a certain eeriness to 

the photographs in places which at 

this early hour instead of portraying 

the dawning of a new day ironically 

represent the ending of life. 

Along comparable lines, Rochers 

Carrés, Carrés the photographic series by 

Kader Attia, investigates the human 

interaction with an architecture 

fraught with a history of colonialism, 

a present cursed with poverty, 

and dreams of a future that may 

never be fulfilled. Rochers Carrés 

is a breakwater beach constructed 

by the administration of Algerian 

President Houari Boumediene, of 

huge concrete blocks whose sides 

can be as high as 3 or 4 meters. 

Attia explores the meaning of 

boundary, the space that separates 

the young people who sit staring at 

the sea from the prospect of a better 

life in the continent beyond the vast 

sea. It is ironic, Attia writes, that the 

young Algerians’ exasperation at 

Rochers Carrés is not so different 

from that in the French banlieues 

where most emigrants from Algiers 

end up living, with “the same lack 

of hope in the future, same sexual 

misery, same frustration, same 

lack of social acknowledgement, 

same feeling of failure and same 

suffering.” 

Boundaries, borders and delineated 

territories are an important part of 

the construct of Disorientation II. 

As is the case with Marwan 

Rechmaoui’s Beirut Caoutchouc 

- a map trampled with factional 

divisions and social fragmentation 

- Mona Hatoum’s Present Tense 

speaks of the map awarded to the 

Palestinians as part of the interim 

agreement in Oslo. A simple look at 

Present Tense says it all. Drawn on 

olive oil soap, a perishable material, 

it alludes to the fact that as a 

foundation for the map it is destined 

to dissolve. And it may also allude to 

Pilate’s washing his hands with the 

soap, as if declaring, “I have nothing 

to do with this arrangement or 

agreement. I wash my hands of it.” 

What seems at first to be a strange 

disease that disfigured the surface 

of the soap is actually tiny red glass

eads outlining the areas that were 

handed over to the Palestinians to 

control. These red circles form the 

Palestinian Authority territories on 

the ground, and they come across 

with a single glance at the map 

as totally disconnected, forming a 

noncontiguous group of scattered 

islands in a vast sea of land occupied 

by Israel. The soap should have 

had some scent to it, reminiscent 

of childhood and home when the 

odor of olive oil, the foundation for 

the only soap available then, brings 

to mind a feeling of warmth and 

belonging. But one soon notices that 

time and age have taken their toll 

and now the scent is only a memory 

fading by the day along with hope. 

Ayreen Anastas and Rene 

Gabri take us to investigate the 

Palestinian territories. For their 

project What everybody knows, 

they travel across the country 

talking and video-recording 

conversations with a good number 

of people over a 16-day period. 

The people they meet are from 

many backgrounds - a professor, 

a former detainee, a geographer, 

a Bedouin, an architect... The 

outcome is presented as 16 

one-day trips or journeys which 

together outline a map “about the 

social, psychological, and political 

dimensions of contemporary 

life for Palestinians in occupied 

Palestine.” 

Zooming in on one particular 

location in Palestine, Wafa Hourani 

recreates a model of Qalandia 

refugee camp from cut-out 

photographs and cardboard 

boxes. Qalandia, situated north of 

Jerusalem, gained infamy from one 

of the main checkpoints situated at 

its entrance connecting Ramallah 

and its vicinity to the east and 

south of the country. Yet Hourani’s 

Qalandia Qalandia Qalandia 2047 2047 2047 brings with it a twist. 

His model attempts to represent 

the Qalandia refugee camp in 2047, 

one hundred years after its original 

inhabitants were expelled from their 

homes following the 1948 war, to 

find on this spot of land a temporary 

refuge, hastily setup at that time 

by the UNRWA, which tragically 

appears now more like a permanent 

arrangement. Hourani’s satirical 

solution to the claustrophobic 

situation in the camp is to devise 

mirrors on the separation wall that 

towers over the camp and suffocates 

its residents, thus giving the illusion 

of an uninterrupted skyline and an 

infinite open space. In the context 

of Disorientation Disorientation Disorientation II, II this work can 

be seen as a monument to the 

steadfastness of all those living in 

refugee camps who are determined 

not to leave their arduous living 

conditions for a temporary, 

comfortable life outside the camp; 

instead, they stand by their resolve 

to go only to the homes they were 

driven from in 1948. 

Tarek Al Ghoussein picks up on 

the ramifications of the events 

in 1948 and addresses some of 

the UN resolutions pertaining to 

the Palestinian cause in his most 

recent work (D (D (D II II II series). series) In contrast 

to Hourani’s attempts to address 

issues pertaining to refugees 

and displacement, Al Ghoussein 

inserts himself in the work as a 

son of diaspora Palestinians who 

is not permitted by the Israelis 

to enter Palestine. In this way he 

creates a certain tension between 

the still, desolate landscape, the 

sun-weathered inanimate objects, 

and his intervention, which together 

with the industrial-looking green 

fabric he brings along represent 

a disquieting interference. A level 

of dislocation ensues from his 

presence and his actions, and 

yet in aggregate it doesn’t alter 

much in the vast, uncompromising 

landscape. It is only a matter of time 

before a sand dune will swallow

whatever trace he leaves behind. 

One wishes to see it otherwise - 

but the sign that he holds with the 

number 181 is just a trace of one 

of many UN Resolutions pertaining 

to the Palestinian cause, which 

seem now to be weathering away. 

Soon they will be swallowed up in 

the heap of many other unfulfilled 

UN Resolutions, drifting, formless, 

flattened and scattered by the strong 

winds of a dictated, compromised 

and forced solution that will fall 

from above. 

It is leaders and officials who 

come up with these parachutedin 

solutions and resolutions that 

impose certain realities on people 

and concoct illusions. Grigori 

Potemkin, a minister during the 

reign of Russian Empress Catherine 

the Great, concocted a brilliant 

illusion in 1787 when Catherine the 

Great visited Crimea, which had 

been annexed by Russia four years 

earlier. In order to show her that 

these lands, part of a peninsula 

in present day Ukraine stretching 

south into the Black Sea, were worth 

something, he erected a series 

of fake, prosperous settlements 

along the Dnieper River which were 

really nothing more than facades of 

buildings and strategically-placed 

fires that could be seen during the 

night when the Empress would be 

less likely to spot the fakes. 

Yto Barrada’s Gran Royal Turismo 

partakes in a somewhat similar 

deception when a convoy of three 

black Mercedes cars, obviously 

carrying officials, passes through a 

little treeless town with dirt-ridden 

sidewalks and walls. Palm trees 

suddenly pop up and the sidewalks 

and walls flip to reveal fresh paint 

and clean surfaces draped with 

flags. When the convoy leaves town, 

the trees, flags and fresh paint 

disappear and the town is back to 

its sad and dirty old appearance. 

The beauty of Barrada’s Gran Royal 

Turismo Turismo Turismo is that it’s constructed as 

a circular racing track, creating an 

infinite hollow notion of repetition 

without any possibility for real 

change, thus alluding to tactics that 

some countries and authorities use 

when the country’s own leader, the 

one and only person with the power 

to effect change, visits a poor area 

or a rundown part of town. Instant 

cleanup disguises dismal living 

conditions, and then to the great 

disappointment of the residents, 

all the dress-up weathers and 

disappears soon after the official is 

gone. There are times and places 

when authorities actually remove 

palm trees they planted in order to 

save them in fresh condition for the 

next visit. 

The element of circular movement 

and the notion of hollow infinite 

repetition in Barrada’s Gran Royal 

Turismo Turismo Turismo makes a subtle connection 

with Diana Al Hadid’s work, which 

echoes a rotary movement with a 

spiral in a dilapidated Babel-like 

sculpture. Her Portal to a Black 

Hole Hole Hole consists of a spiral staircase 

made of organ keys positioned in 

the center of the sculpture leading 

to the oculus of the dome. The 

oculus in the Pantheon was the 

only source of light other than the 

door and represented a central 

sun within a concrete sky. It was 

originally a temple to all gods, but 

it was converted into a church. It is 

generally credited to Apollodorus 

of Damascus, a Greek architect, 

born in Damascus, Syria. Al Hadid’s 

sculpture is conceived as a pseudotemple, 

or an “architectural black 

hole” that emits the sounds of B 

Flat, which cannot be heard by 

the human ear. Al Hadid states 

“My structure, while culling from 

the architecture of Greek temples 

and Gothic Cathedrals, purports 

to form a line, not to God, but to 

another undiscovered, impossible

to reach location - a black hole, a 

hypothetical place completely cut off 

from our world and our history. The 

ruined structure appears to have 

been operational one day, but is now 

silent and dysfunctional.” The spiral 

black hole in which Al Hadid depicts 

this church is perhaps ominous as 

to the unpromising future ahead, 

and a commentary on a nihilistic 

view of history. 

Where Where Where are are are the the the Arabs? Arabs? Arabs? asks Samah 

Hijawi in a performance, taking us 

back full circle to Jamal Abdel- 

Nasser’s era, to the beginning 

of the exhibition, to that utopian 

and glorious moment when Arab 

nationalism and unity was still a 

possible dream. However, repetition 

is imbedded in her oratory, identified 

in the recurrence of certain ideas 

throughout the length of the speech, 

and even though in the Arabic 

language and culture repetition 

is normally used to emphasize 

conviction, in her case it can only 

allude to emptiness, boredom 

and futility of the performance of 

certain political figures, as is also 

manifest in the circular movement 

of Barrada’s piece and Al Hadid’s 

dilapidated spiral staircase that 

leads to a black hole. 

And history repeats itself. Tarek 

Atoui Undrum II: the Chinese 

Connection Connection Connection ends with the lowest 

point humanly audible in the musical 

scale, creating a challenging 

connection between the practices of 

several popular political movements 

in the Arab world and the trials of 

opera, music and art masters who 

were adjudicated and condemned by 

the youth of the Chinese communist 

party during the Maoist revolution. 

His physically challenging sound 

performance mirrors his personal 

struggle with the flux of unsettling 

political, social and cultural 

changes, as rough, dense and 

distorted electronic sound textures 

collide with the sounds of trials and 

Maoist propaganda. We can stretch 

our imagination to place Hijawi’s 

speech performance next to Atoui’s 

sound performance in a twisted, 

complimentary way, as if one leads 

up to the other and possibly feeds 

from the other. 

Disorientation Disorientation Disorientation II II II follows a circular 

path, emphasizing the notion of 

repetition of familiar shortcomings, 

the squandered opportunities and 

violent power struggles that lead 

to wasted lives, bitter societies 

and the betrayal of human values. 

If only Ibn Khladoun’s theory 

on the movement of history as 

exemplified in the life of a city, 

would hold in the 21st century, for 

us to witness the inevitable defeat of 

rampant corruption, injustices and 

discrimination and the reappearance 

of people with higher morals, ethics 

and values.

Ayreen Anastas & Rene Gabri 

Ayreen Anastas writes in fragments 

and makes films and videos. Her 

recent text, audio, web, and video 

works have focused on the evolving 

legal and discursive shifts around 

different notions of security and 

the subsequent effects on everyday 

life. She is one of the organizers of 

16 Beaver Group (16beavergroup. 

org). She has no affection for the 

proclamation of victory. Troubled by 

any image of herself, suffers when 

she is named. 

Rene Gabri is interested in the 

complex mechanisms which 

constitute the world around us, 

he is often working alone or 

with others within the folds of 

cultural practice, social thought, 

and politics. Much of his practice 

springs from contact with others, 

dialogues and conversations with 

friends, colleagues, thinkers, 

and individuals he encounters 

by chance. Organizing public 

discussions, readings, and social 

activities has happened largely 

through his involvement with 16 

Beaver.

Hala Elkoussy 

Hala Elkoussy was born in Cairo, 

Egypt in 1974 and currently 

lives and works in Amsterdam 

where she had a residency at the 

Rijksakademie Van Beeldende 

Kunsten from 2005-2007. 

Elkoussy began work as a freelance 

photographer and went on to 

complete an MA in Image and 

Communication at Goldsmiths 

College, London in 2002. She then 

lectured on photography at the 

American University in Cairo and in 

2004 co-founded the Contemporary 

Image Collective (CiC), an 

independent initiative dedicated to 

photography and video. 

Her work focuses on Cairo as a 

metropolis that exemplifies the 

contemporanity of all large urban 

conglomerates in North Africa 

and Eurasia, often using the 

tension between photography and 

reality to explore how identity is 

created. She has been exhibited 

internationally and was part of 

‘Snap Judgments: New Positions in 

Contemporary African Photography’ 

at the International Centre for 

Photography, New York and the 

Museo Tamayo, Mexico; ‘The 

Maghreb Connection’ (2007) at 

the Centre D’Art Contemporain in 

Geneva and Townhouse Gallery in 

Cairo, and her work ‘Peripheral 

(and other stories)’ was shown 

at the Stedelijk Museum Bureau, 

Amsterdam (2006) and was part 

of the ‘Global Cities’ show at Tate 

Modern, London (2007).

Mona Hatoum 

Mona Hatoum was born into a 

Palestinian family in Beirut in 

1952 and since 1975 has lived and 

worked in London. She originally 

went to England on a visit and 

stayed on when the outbreak of the 

civil war in Lebanon prevented her 

returning. 

After studying at the Byam Shaw 

and the Slade School of Art in 

London, Hatoum first became 

widely known in the mid 80s for a 

series of performance and video 

works that focused with great 

intensity on the body. Since the 

beginning of the ‘90s her work 

moved increasingly towards largescale 

installation works that aim 

to engage the viewer in conflicting 

emotions of desire and revulsion, 

fear and fascination. Hatoum has 

developed a language in which 

familiar, domestic everyday objects 

like chairs, beds, cots and kitchen 

utensils are often transformed into 

foreign, threatening and sometimes 

dangerous objects. 

Hatoum’s work has been exhibited 

widely in solo exhibitions in Europe, 

the United States, Canada and 

Australia. In 1997-98 a survey of 

her work was organised by the 

Museum of Contemporary Art, 

Chicago and toured to The New 

Museum of Contemporary Art, 

New York , MoMA, Oxford and the 

Scottish National Gallery of Modern 

Art, Edinburgh (1998). Other solo 

exhibitions include Centre Georges 

Pompidou, Paris (1994), Castello 

di Rivoli, Turin (1999), ‘Domestic 

Disturbance’, Site Santa Fe and 

Mass MoCA (2000-2001), and a 

major survey of her work at the 

Centro de Arte de Salamanca 

and the Centro Galego de Arte 

Contemporanea, Spain (2002-03). 

Her exhibition ‘The Entire World as 

a Foreign Land’ was the inaugural 

exhibition for the launch of Tate 

Britain, London in 2000. 

In 2004 the largest and most 

comprehensive survey of her work 

was initiated by the Hamburger 

Kunsthalle and traveled to 

Kunstmuseum Bonn, Magasin 

3 Stockholm Konsthall and the 

Sydney Museum of Contemporary 

Art (2005). Her exhibition “Interior 

Landscape” was shown at the 

Querini Stamaplia in the context of 

the current Venice Biennale (2009). 

She has also participated in 

numerous international exhibitions, 

namely the 1995 Venice Biennale, 

the 1995 Istanbul Biennial, 

Documenta XI in 2002, the 2005 

Venice Biennale , the 15th Biennale 

of Sydney in 2006, the 3rd Auckland 

Triennial, the 8th Sharjah Biennale 

in 2007 and the 3rd Bucharest 

Biennale in 2008. Also in 2008, the 

XIII Biennale Donna in Ferrara 

was entirely devoted to a solo 

exhibition by Mona Hatoum entitled 

Undercurrents. 

Hatoum was Artist-in-Residence 

on the DAAD program (Berliner 

Künstlerprogramm, Deutscher 

Akademischer Austrauschdienst) in 

2003-2004 and has since divided her 

time between Berlin and London.

Samah Hijawi 

Samah Hijawi is a cross-disciplinary 

visual artist whose recent works 

focus on working in public spaces 

in ways that invite the participation 

of the audience. Hijawi’s work 

explores identity through history, 

politics and socio-religious 

structures questioning definitions 

of the collective identity, memory 

and the notion of a ‘sense of 

belonging’. Hijawi’s works have 

been on display in different venues 

in Jordan, Scotland, France, and 

The Netherlands; and are part of 

collections in Jordan, Dubai, Greece 

and London. 

Hijawi is also a cultural manager in 

several local independent projects 

in the visual arts, and works as a 

consultant with Makan Art Space.

Jordanian art with contributions 

in several local and international 

publications, and lectures in 

contemporary Arab and western Art.

Wafa Hourani 

Wafa Hourani, born in Hebron 

1979 studied at the Ecole d’Art et 

de Cinéma of Tunis (1998-2001), 

and has made several videos in 

his home city of Ramallah (Poster, 

Yousef) as well as in other places 

in Palestine. Along with other 

means of artistic expression he 

uses photography either as such 

or in the form of collage to produce 

composite images or environments. 

His diverse photographic and film 

experiments are organized around 

the concept of ‘Photolife’ that 

reflects the many possible ways 

of using photography (e.g. in the 

area of personal and collective 

memory or that of dreams and 

projections into a future space and 

time well away from the unbearable 

constraints experienced by today’s 

Palestine). 

His Future Cities projects - Qalandia 

2047 was exhibited with Catherine 

David at the Thessaloniki Biennial 

2007 and at Sfeir Semler Gallery – 

Beirut 2008. Hourani currently lives 

and works in Ramallah.

Hrair Sarkissian 

Hrair Sarkissian, born in Damascus, 

currently lives in Amsterdam. 

He attended the Ecole Nationale 

Supérieure de la Photographie 

in Arles, France (2003-2004) and 

in 2010 he will be completing his 

studies in Fine Arts (Photography) 

at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in 

Amsterdam. 

He has exhibited extensively among 

other places, in Syria, Greece, 

Spain, France and Dubai. In 2008 

works from his ‘Unfinished’ series 

were shown at Kalfayan Galleries 

in Athens and Thessaloniki and 

subsequently were presented 

in the group show “New Ends, 

Old Beginnings”, curated by 

November Paynter, at The Bluecoat 

Gallery, Liverpool, UK. In 2009 

he was invited to participate at 

the 11th Istanbul Biennale where 

he first presented the series 

Execution Squares. In Sarkissian’s 

work, landscape and the urban 

environment become stages for the 

expression of historical realities 

and where human presence is 

implied but never overtly depicted. 

Employing traditional documentary 

techniques, his photographs are 

eloquent expressions of a hidden 

paradox that exists between 

the beauty and constancy of the 

surroundings and the social 

realities that they conceal.

SHARJAH ART FOUNDATION 

is a new initiative committed to 

supporting the development of 

a flourishing arts environment 

in the Gulf by nurturing artistic 

opportunities and actively pursuing 

both a regional and international 

program of cultural exchange. 

The Foundation builds on the 

pioneering role Sharjah has 

played in the artistic and cultural 

development of the UAE and the 

region. Recognizing the central 

and distinctive contribution that 

art makes to society, Sharjah 

Art Foundation focuses on the 

production and presentation of the 

contemporary visual arts. 

At the core of the Foundation are 

the programmes developed over 

the past nine Biennials including 

the acclaimed artist production 

programme, residencies and the 

internationally attended March 

Meetings. Cultivating the spirit of 

research, experimentation and the 

accumulation of knowledge and 

experience, Sharjah Art Foundation 

will continue the Biennial’s role as 

artistic and cultural think-tank for 

the region. 

Inspired by the cross-fertilization 

and rich cultural diversity of the 

Emirates, Sharjah Art Foundation 

provides both national and 

international leadership in art 

production while acting as a catalyst 

for cultural exchange both within the 

region and beyond.

TOURISM DEVELOPMENT AND 

INVESTMENT COMPANY (TDIC) is 

a master developer of key cultural, 

residential and tourism destinations 

in Abu Dhabi. The principal goal 

of its cultural programme, up 

to and including the creation 

of the Saadiyat Island Cultural 

District – the world’s largest single 

concentration of premier cultural 

institutions, is to establish an 

international platform in the UAE 

for arts and culture. 

Unprecedented in scale and scope, 

the Saadiyat Island Cultural District 

will include museums such as 

Zayed National Museum, Louvre 

Abu Dhabi, and the Guggenheim 

Abu Dhabi Museum, all due 

for completion in 2012/2013. 

Education is essential to create 

opportunities for the local and 

regional community. 

TDIC’s mission is to engage the 

community in the city’s urban, 

cultural and artistic development 

and help widen professional 

skills and knowledge in the 

community through a dialogue with 

representatives from the world’s 

leading cultural organisations. 

Alongside the Cultural District 

project, TDIC presents a diversified 

programme of art exhibitions, 

events and talks to further engage 

audiences in the arts including 

public discussions with many of the 

world’s greatest artists, curators, 

scholars and museum leaders. 

Already, TDIC has showed a series 

of path-breaking exhibitions: the 

first Middle East showing of the 

great Nasser D. Khalili collection 

of Islamic arts. The first Middle 

East retrospective of the work 

of Pablo Picasso, and the first 

comprehensive survey exhibition of 

the contemporary art of the United 

Arab Emirates and most recently, 

the Talking Art: Louvre Abu Dhabi.
