XYZ
Eduardo Navarro
XYZ (2015) is an original children’s activity that aims to reprogramme the mechanical and analytical skills used to win a game and in so doing make ‘winning’ once again a byproduct of play rather than its goal.
Collection
The Sharjah Art Foundation Collection’s roots were seeded with acquisitions and commissions from the Sharjah Biennial and Foundation. It has since grown to be one of the Middle East’s pre-eminent collections, serving to enrich the lives of audiences through the acquisition and rotating exhibition of significant works of modern and contemporary art, both locally and internationally. The more than 1,000 works span art movements from the 1920s to the present day in an ever-expanding range of visual culture and forms. Reflecting Sharjah’s history as a major regional trade route, the collection acts as a node that connects cultures through modern and contemporary art. The collection proposes a re-authoring of the history of art, contexualising it from a South/South and East/East perspective while offering an alternative view that shifts the axis of this history to a more inclusive, intergenerational and transcultural one.
Here you will find a selection of works from the collection; our full collection will be available to view online soon.
