Ibraaz and the Kamel Lazaar Foundation are pleased to be the online media partners, alongside the International New York Times, for Art Dubai’s 2014 Global Art Forum 8. Ibraaz will stream the forum live from the Dubai venues on the newly launched Ibraaz Channel. The live stream can be viewed on the following link: www.ibraaz.org/channel/1, alongside the full programme.
Titled Meanwhile…History, Global Art Forum 8 will explore a timeline of turning points in history—significant decades, years, days, minutes or seconds that shifted an understanding of the world. Co-directed by curator-translator Omar Berrada of Dar al-Ma’mun and artist Ala Younis, and commissioned by writer Shumon Basar, the forum will also reflect on the philosophy and fiction of making history matter.
In April and May, Ibraaz will publish bi-lingual transcripts of the talks and discussions—in English and in Arabic—alongside exclusive video interviews with the panellists, individual panel discussions, and reports on the Global Art Forum and Sharjah March Meetings respectively. Ibraaz will also launch Platform 007 in May, which will address the future of art infrastructures and audiences in North Africa and the Middle East. Sign up to the newsletter here.
Global Art Forum 8 will take place at Katara Art Center, Doha, on 15 and 16 March, and at Art Dubai, Mina A’ Salam, Madinat Jumeirah, from 19 to 21 March. For the full programme, follow this link.
The Kamel Lazaar Foundation is also pleased to announce the launch of its quarterly newsletter. Sign up to receive regular news on the Foundation’s activities and events, updates on artists’ research projects and collection highlights.
