This exhibition booklet is a record of Sharjah Art Foundation’s exhibition celebrating ten years of Production Programme grants. One of Sharjah Art Foundation’s core initiatives, originally conceived alongside Sharjah Biennial 9 (2009), the Production Programme challenges artists to conceive and realise innovative work that transforms the way art is understood and experienced by offering grants and professional support to artists responding to an international open call. This exhibition includes works by Raed Yassin (2014 awardee), Rula Halawni (2016 awardee), Amina Menia (2016 awardee), Mohammed Fariji (2016 awardee), Marwa Arsanios (2014 awardee), Khaled Kaddal (2016 awardee), Basir Mahmood (2016 awardee), Jacqueline Hoàng Nguyễn (2016 awardee) and Khaled Sabsabi (2016 awardee).
Celebrating ten years of Production Programme grants, Sharjah Art Foundation will present a selection of works from previous editions of the Production Programme this autumn.
Raed Yassin is a video, sound and visual artist and musician whose strongly conceptual work uses image, music and text to explore myriad themes.
In film, photography and installation, Amina Menia considers issues of public space, the cityscape and urban policies.
Marwa Arsanios is an artist, filmmaker and researcher who reconsiders the Middle Eastern politics of the mid-twentieth century from a contemporary perspective.
Sabsabi specialises in multimedia and site-specific installations, often involving people on the margins of society.
