On view | ‘A Momentum for the Horizon‘ by Alaa Itani, currently presented in the Artist Room.

Working with reverse glass painting, Itani (Alaa Itani علاء عيتاني) applies ink to the glass before selectively wiping and erasing areas of the painted surface. Clouds, air, and expanses of sky emerge through these acts of subtraction, allowing unobstructed light to pass through what has been removed. At once transparent and obstructive, physically present yet visually elusive. Light travels through the transparencies, casting shadows and producing doubles of the painted image, appearing fainted, partial, or momentarily displaced. The landscapes are not tied to specific locations or viewpoints. Instead, Itani approaches the horizon as a recurring condition: something perceived but never reached.

Until November 4, 2026

On view | I Bloom Where You Hold Me by Tirdad Hashemi & Soufia Erfanian is now open.

The ‘Flower’ series unfolds against walls covered with hand-drawn graffiti, extending the sense of inhabiting the space. Small drawings pinned among dense flower paintings explore physical closeness and acts of attention, tracing the ways relationships are formed, tested, and sustained.

Until November 4, 2026.

Opening tomorrow | ‘Giving Life’ at Dib Bangkok (Dib Bangkok), with a monumental commission by Bassim Al Shaker (Bassim Al Shaker - Artist | Painter), titled ‘The First Sky’, among other works by artists from across the world.

‘Giving Life’ traces a lineage of art in motion, from Alexander Calder’s early mobiles to contemporary performance and relational practices. Bringing together 160 works by 33 artists, the exhibition explores how movement, transformation, and material change allow artworks to behave less like static objects and more like living forms: vulnerable to time, chance, unpredictability, change, and the presence of others.

On view until May 3, 2027.

A Momentum for the Horizon
Preview: September 23, 6-9pm

‘A Momentum for the Horizon’ (2023) is a series of reverse glass paintings by Alaa Itani (Alaa Itani علاء عيتاني), exploring the horizon as both boundary and promise, a visible line that remains perpetually distant. In dialogue with the landscapes of Lebanese modernist painter Rafic Charaf, Itani considers landscape as a condition of memory, perception, and temporal displacement. Begun in October 2023, the series captures a sense of anticipation, as blurred horizons and moving cloud formations appear to register a change not yet fully arrived.

Opening | I Bloom Where You Hold Me
Tirdad Hashemi and Soufia Erfanian
September 23, 6–9 pm

Join us this coming Wednesday for the opening of ‘I Bloom Where You Hold Me’, the first solo exhibition by Tirdad Hashemi and Soufia Erfanian at the gallery, bringing together collaborative works from their ongoing ‘Flower’ series.

Begun in 2022, when tending to plants became part of the artists’ daily lives, the series draws a parallel between caring for plants, sustaining relationships, and maintaining an artistic practice; each requiring patience, attention, and a faith in growth.

Bodies gather, embrace, dance, withdraw, and hold onto one another within unruly fields of flowers. Drawn from lived moments of friendship and chosen family, these intimate scenes form a choreography of closeness and retreat, allowing togetherness to coexist with isolation, resilience with fatigue, and tenderness with the pressures of the outside world.

Yet, flowers do not offer an escape from difficult realities; they grow alongside them. ‘I Bloom Where You Hold Me’ considers care as a way of enduring and the possibility of becoming softer in the presence of another without becoming less resilient.

Remembering Hassan today, and always.

Today marks 10 years since Hassan Sharif’s passing. His work and thinking remain a vital presence, continuing to resonate across generations and shaping how we understand artistic practice in the UAE and beyond.

Haleh Redjaian participates in the 7th Sculpture Triennale (Skulpturen-Triennale Bingen) in Bingen and Rhein, Germany, with a new installation ‘Underneath the Arches’ (2026), curated by Sara Bernshausen (Sara Bernshausen) and Lutz Driever (Lutz Driever) and on view until October 4.

Redjaian () constructs an open, walk-in, dome-like structure beneath the arcade-like vault of the Kapuzinerkirche St. Laurentius. Threads dyed in natural tones are stretched across arched metal frames, creating an architecture that is at once permeable and protective. In a time marked by social division and exclusion, the work offers a temporary shelter.

The sculpture draws inspiration from both the architecture of sacred memorial spaces and the majlis. Rooted in a longstanding tradition within Islamic culture, the majlis functions across private and public contexts as a space for social gathering, political debate, teaching, and discussion.

Work details: ‘Underneath the Arches’ (2026),
Steel, plastic netting, thread/yarn and paper.
