UAE Unlimited is a satellite platform with a mission to nurture and develop emerging artists in the UAE. \u2018Bayn: the In-Between\u2019 is a collaboration between UAE Unlimited and a number of UAE-based artists, curators, and institutions, highlighting the collective nature of the creative community in the UAE today.<\/p>\n

These include Emirati installation and multi-media artist, Asma Al Ahmed, Iraqi architect and designer, Hatem Hatem, Emirati musician and sound artist, Maytha Al Shamsi, Jordanian portrait artist, Saif Mhaisen, Emirati textile artist, Sara Al Haddad, Syrian landscape artist and designer, Talin Hazbar, Bahraini-American documentary artist, Nasser Al Zayani, and Emirati architect and illustrator, Talal Al Ansari.<\/p>\n
Speaking ahead of the exhibition, Shobha Pia Shamdsani, Executive Director of UAE Unlimited said, \u201cThrough UAE Unlimited\u2019s partnerships with local initiatives in the UAE, we are able to offer emerging artists the advantage of working directly with experienced creative professionals whose insights are invaluable to the development of these young artists.\u201d<\/p>\n
Maya Allison, Senior Curatorial Adviser, said, \u201cAn exhibition of emerging artists on this scale is a major, exciting undertaking, particularly with nine entirely new works being produced. Munira\u2019s curatorial concept and commitment to the creative vision of these emerging artists is commendable, as is the commitment of H.H. Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan bin Khalifa Al Nahyan and Shobha Pia Shamdsani to the support of emerging artists, and now emerging curators, in the UAE.\u201d\u2014WAM<\/em><\/p>\n Image: Alamy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The third exhibition organised by UAE Unlimited, entitled \u2018Bayn: the In-Between\u2019, will be held at Warehouse421 in Abu Dhabi from February, 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1653,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[4,1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kt10.khaleejtimes.ae\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1650"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kt10.khaleejtimes.ae\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kt10.khaleejtimes.ae\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kt10.khaleejtimes.ae\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kt10.khaleejtimes.ae\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1650"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kt10.khaleejtimes.ae\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1650\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kt10.khaleejtimes.ae\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1653"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kt10.khaleejtimes.ae\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1650"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kt10.khaleejtimes.ae\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1650"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kt10.khaleejtimes.ae\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1650"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
