The 1980s were a groundbreaking decade for contemporary art in the United Arab Emirates, a radical moment when artists in the UAE explored experimental new formats, formed art collectives and founded journals. Rather than a transliteration, this radical reinvention of a traditional bilingual book, which accompanies a show curated by Hoor Al Qasimi, focuses on translating the aesthetics of this important moment in the history of contemporary art.
