Arte contemporanea dagli Emirati Arabi Uniti in mostra a Berlino dal 13 settembre al 29 ottobre 2017.<\/h3>\n

La mostra offre un raro sguardo alla poetica storia e diversit\u00e0 degli artisti degli Emirati Arabi, considerando contemporaneamente importanti questioni contemporanee di patrimonio e di identit\u00e0. Contesto di un rapido sviluppo e di una globalizzazione, le opere esplorano idee complesse della nazione moderna, visitano paesaggi urbani e rurali e esaminano le principali questioni di unit\u00e0, spiritualit\u00e0 e lingua.
\nLa mostra comprende 20 opere di artisti emergenti e storicizzati. Queste nuove riflessioni sono contestualizzate da pezzi originali che risalgono alla nascita del paese. Sono presenti tre generazioni di artisti rinomati; da Hassan Sharif e dai suoi studenti atelier ad artisti pi\u00f9 giovani.<\/p>\n

The exhibition Portrait of a Nation offers a glimpse into the creative practices of 50\u00a0contemporary artists from the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Visitors are invited to explore\u00a0the country through the individual perspectives of the participating artists who call it home.

Founded in 1971 the UAE is today home to some 200 nationalities. The exhibition offers a rare\u00a0glimpse into its little-known history and diversity while considering significant contemporary\u00a0questions of heritage and identity. Against a backdrop of rapid development and globalization,\u00a0the works explore complex ideas of modern nationhood, visiting urban and rural landscapes\u00a0and examining major issues of unity, spirituality, and language.
\nTracing the nation\u2019s shifting identity, the exhibition includes 20 specially commissioned works\u00a0by emerging and established artists. These new reflections are contextualised by seminal pieces\u00a0dating back to the birth of the country.
