Arabicity reflects on four decades of the aesthetic, conceptual,
and socio-political concerns of contemporary Arab artists.
Beautifully produced, it features over 200 artworks by more than 35
Arab artists including Bahia Shehab, Ayman Baalbaki, Hassan Hajjaj,
and Raeda Saadeh, who explore their cultural heritage, and themes
such as memory, destruction, and conflict, with great warmth,
humour and visual poetry. Whether through video art, painting,
photography or installation, these artists challenge the confines
of their identity, resist stereotyping, and reshape the parameters
of their cultural traditions. In their diverse media and subject
matter, their works reflect the pulse of the region. In chaos they
discover what endures.
