About

Contemporary Art Stavanger consists of an online art journal as well as a physical residency program for critics, writers and researchers. Through our work, we aim to contribute meaningful conversation relevant to the Stavanger region’s art scene, while at the same time connecting the content to a larger national and international discourse – we therefore publish in both Norwegian and English. In addition to reviews, essays, and interviews, we explore the expansive possibilities of CAS’ online platform and investigate different ways of working with writers, residencies, and the format of art writing and criticism. We at CAS are dedicated to presenting a wide range of perspectives, voices, and subject matter. Read more

Everybody was Invited to a Party – Farah Al Qasimi

September 10, 2020 @18:00 - November 8, 2020 @16:00 CEST Exhibition

About

Everybody was Invited to a Party (2018) av Farah Al Qasimi henter inspirasjon fra 1980-årenes arabiske versjon av Sesam Stasjon (Iftah Ya Simsim). I videoen brukes dukker til å presentere språk og bokstaver som formbare objekter uten en satt betydning. Videoen bruker tekst fra arabisk-engelske lærebøker funnet av Al Qasimi i London under et residency i byen. I videoen presenterer kunstneren øyeblikk der mangelen på kommunikasjon skaper muligheter for nye meninger. Dukkene er håndsydd av Al Qasimi, som også spiller alle karakterene og har komponert musikken som høres i verket.

Farah Al Qasimi (f.1991, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates) bor og arbeider i Brooklyn og Dubai. Hun jobber med foto, video og performance. Arbeidet til Al Qasimi har blitt vist ved Jameel Arts Centre (Dubai), San Francisco Arts Commission, CCS Bard Galleries (Hessel Museum of Art, New York), Helena Anrather (New York), The Third Line (Dubai), The List Visual Arts Center at MIT (Cambridge), Museum of Contemporary Art (Toronto), og Houston Center for Photography.

Al Qasimi har en MFA fra Yale School of Art. Hun har hatt residenser ved Delfina Foundation i London, Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture i Maine, og er en mottager av New York NADA Artadia Prize og Aaron Siskind Individual Photographer’s Fellowship. Arbeidet hennes er kjøpt inn av Museum of Modern Art i New York, Museum of Contemporary Art i Chicago, Massachusetts Institute of Technology i Cambridge og Grey Art Gallery, New York.
