Memory Sews Together Events That Hadn’t Previously Met
Until November 20, 2022
Sharjah Art Museum
This exhibition reflects the manifold ways in which artists in the Arab world have responded to socio-political events and the human condition across the twentieth century. The title of the exhibition is inspired by verses from Etel Adnan’s Night, 2016, where she writes:
Memory sews together events that hadn’t previously met.
It reshuffles the past and makes us aware that it is doing so.
