Working across video, painting, text and installation, Abu Abdallah’s work is a meditation on our media-saturated present, and the tension between our virtual personas and real lived experiences. Influenced by the online flows of data and images as well as pop culture in the Gulf, her work is an intimate reflection on the anxieties of a hyperconnected present.

Amal Khalaf is the Assistant Curator of the Serpentine Gallery’s site-specific Edgeware Road Project, an international residency and research programme.

Founded in 2015 with the mission of promoting the talent of artists from the region, Kaph Books is a publishing house based in Beirut, Lebanon, and specialising in quality art books on Middle-Eastern artists or art practices. Each book is unique, created in collaboration with the artists and contributors with high technical and design quality.

The Kunstverein in Hamburg is dedicated to supporting those artists who produce work today and help design the cultural heritage of tomorrow. Setting its bearings by international developments in contemporary art, the programme sets out to foster and present high-calibre artistic experiments, which, framed by discussion, further advance the development of contemporary art exhibitions.
