There is no one to blame, but we owe it to ourselves and to the world to raise those stereotypes and project the true essence of who we are, how we live, and what we stand for.Art is a form of expression, a unified language.

The project stems from his desire to promote art in Abu Dhabi by giving the opportunity to emerging artists in the Middle East to have an exhibition. In order to facilitate this, Jalal Luqman initiated an annual event called ‘Jalal’s Art Trip’, during which a select few artists resident in the U.A.E. would go to a location or two to ignite inspiration. The trip is only open to emerging artists who had not yet held an exhibition and needed push and encouragement to establish themselves in the art world. After the trip, over the next five to six weeks the artists are required to create works of art inspired solely by their individual experiences on the trip. The whole trip and every subsequent meeting are filmed, to document 'The Process' that is involved in creating an artwork, from the point of inspiration to the framing and exhibition of work and all that comes in between. This is done to foster a deeper understanding between the artists and the public. A small video of ‘The Process’ will be shown on the exhibition opening night.</div>emiratiartistshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09851675317197634340noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129695826573007419.post-10386716429961939532010-11-02T01:51:00.000-07:002010-11-02T01:52:29.643-07:00The Nationals' GalleryDear Friends,<br />you are invited to attend the National's Gallery by ADMAF from the 3rd until the 7th of November at Emirates Palace, please find below the online invitation and the map to the location.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNAy7WhrQJr9DztSOsc6qnEcWmnRiQ610k6a9DOVr8fch_R6Fg0z73ng2kAhGoem12O7LpHKxc4Ncx46dop9ZCB9nHCbb9rn7dhacKpaSTa6ITWp2Vje0CseMR4DujdSPibQBY3WxN2Hw/s1600/image001.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 287px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534871485747994914" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNAy7WhrQJr9DztSOsc6qnEcWmnRiQ610k6a9DOVr8fch_R6Fg0z73ng2kAhGoem12O7LpHKxc4Ncx46dop9ZCB9nHCbb9rn7dhacKpaSTa6ITWp2Vje0CseMR4DujdSPibQBY3WxN2Hw/s400/image001.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUe-dWCS-rCJrB7JFFfOV7X-kuPQiHSh-UJgdYKEdFU_gKdjC224h7onMjIHueN3jYSXKJLecqHGfnwZFKEVmBeSzHYCAO2QxLo4ipXZC8F9R7153sALTk4q6dVbvok7UOi7OXBCG1Ms8/s1600/image002.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 287px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534871483966466770" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUe-dWCS-rCJrB7JFFfOV7X-kuPQiHSh-UJgdYKEdFU_gKdjC224h7onMjIHueN3jYSXKJLecqHGfnwZFKEVmBeSzHYCAO2QxLo4ipXZC8F9R7153sALTk4q6dVbvok7UOi7OXBCG1Ms8/s400/image002.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgW05-cNASdsbDNuT7JqjH_0HT6KMsZdLgZKLOI1ZiRZ_V9gQ80jhNjrSXwcbgdkCWnWTuwwiAbUlrnaBU29KnkVWIPYuxB7mdpCm3dnmUtTc_vVJz-5S2le9Q7FcRUlo-X5sUQtr47nXQ/s1600/map.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 280px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534871482488989858" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgW05-cNASdsbDNuT7JqjH_0HT6KMsZdLgZKLOI1ZiRZ_V9gQ80jhNjrSXwcbgdkCWnWTuwwiAbUlrnaBU29KnkVWIPYuxB7mdpCm3dnmUtTc_vVJz-5S2le9Q7FcRUlo-X5sUQtr47nXQ/s400/map.jpg" /></a><br />Hope to see you all there,<br />kind regards,<br />Sumayyah Al Suwaidiemiratiartistshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09851675317197634340noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129695826573007419.post-66291118756965776982010-10-04T04:31:00.000-07:002010-10-04T04:32:59.536-07:00All Emirati PhotographersDaman Investments & Tashkeel are sending out a call all Emarati photographers to submit work for inclusion in the DAMAN 2011 calendar.<br /><br />This year, Daman Investments takes pleasure in collaborating with Tashkeel on the 2011 calendar that will feature a selection of photographs by Emarati photographers.<br /><br />The theme for this year’s calendar is the celebration of the fortieth anniversary of the United Arab Emirates as a growing nation.
