A Radical Intimacy of Hanging Out: Group Exhibition at Aisha Alabbar Gallery

The Aisha Alabbar Gallery is set to unveil 'a radical intimacy of hanging out,' a collective exhibition curated by Salem AlSuwaidi, showcasing Emirati artists Asma Khoory, Taqwa Alnaqbi, and Sultan Al Remeithi. Scheduled to commence on April 15, 2025, and continue until May 23, 2025, the exhibition delves into the irony of 'killing time' as both a subtle and rebellious act. It reflects on how ordinary interactions can transform into significant expressions of intimacy and shared potential. Amidst the rapid urban development in the Gulf, the exhibition challenges the notion of whether time is truly lost in moments of presence or if these experiences defy finality. The press release also alludes to GCC Collective's views on Gulf Futurism, emphasizing the conflict between optimized living and unregulated pauses. Featured works include Sultan Al Remeithi's 'scorecard' (2024, acrylic, 167 x 65 cm).
