Curated by Dr. Aisha Stoby
Exhibition of Rare Works from Key GCC Institutions Chronicles Nearly a Century of Visual Art in the Arabian Peninsula
● The exhibition, Khaleej Modern: Pioneers and Collectives in the Arabian Peninsula, is curated by Dr. Aisha Stoby, who helmed the inaugural Oman Pavilion at the Venice Biennale this year.
● Prominent art organizations from across the GCC have collaborated on this project, including ADMAF, Bahrain National Museum, Barjeel Art Foundation, Hafez Gallery, Mathaf: Arab Museum for Modern Art, Sharjah Art Foundation, Stal Gallery & Studio, and The Sultan Gallery.
● 57 artworks in this show were loaned from across the GCC, from early and mid-20th century through 2007, many of which have not been shown in decades, and rarely in the context of a history of modern art in the Gulf.
