Born in Amman, Jordan, Mona Saudi (1945-2022) was one of the rare sculptors of her era. She worked exclusively with stone as her medium, and her sculptures often centred around basic shapes, such as squares, circles, cylinders, and rectangles. These dynamic compositions frequently circled back to themes of fertility and growth. Her works are included in the collections of renowned international institutions, such as Sharjah Art Foundation; the British Museum, London; Barjeel Art Foundation, Sharjah; the Institut du monde arabe, Paris; the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts, Amman; the Khalid Shoman Foundation, Amman; the National Museum of Women in the Arts, Washington D.C.; Dar al-Athar al-Islamiyyah, Kuwait; the Museum of Modern Art, Kuwait; and the Ministry of Culture, Cairo.

The work of Filwa Nazer (b. 1972) revolves around exploring emotional and psychological identity within spatial and social contexts. The multidisciplinary visual artist employs digital prints, collages, textiles, and installations as mediums to delve into the ever-evolving boundaries between public and private spaces. Drawing on her experience in the fashion industry, she crafts textile sculptures and geometric embroideries that evoke deconstructed clothing patterns and traditional handicrafts. Her works are featured in prominent public collections, including the Saudi Ministry of Culture, Riyadh; the Al-Mansouria Foundation, Jeddah; the Jameel Arts Centre, Dubai; and the Greenbox Museum of Contemporary Art from Saudi Arabia, Amsterdam, as well as numerous private collections worldwide.

This episode of The Misk Art Library Podcast explores Saudi artist Manal AlDowayan and pioneering Emirati artist Hassan Sharif. The conversation highlights AlDowayan’s evolving practice, the challenges of documenting art histories, and the pioneering experimentation of Hassan Sharif. Together they reflect on how archives sustain artistic legacies and how intergenerational dialogue enriches the contemporary art landscape. 

Their work is celebrated in the Misk Art Library volumes Manal AlDowayan: Participatory Acts and Hassan Sharif: Woven.

22:10 Closing Thoughts

Hassan Sharif (1951-2016) is considered a pioneering conceptual artist and a leading figure in contemporary art in the Gulf region. Best known for his sculptural installations using everyday materials, his oeuvre also includes performance, painting, drawing, and weaving, covering themes such as the critique of mass consumption and industrialisation. Sharif was an influential educator, mentor, and critic who wrote prolifically and translated many critical texts to Arabic to make them accessible to people in the Emirates. He cofounded several platforms for artists to convene and to learn, encouraging innovation and experimentation in artmaking.

Catherine David is a French art historian, curator and museum director. From 1982 to 1990, she was Curator at the Musée National d’Art Moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou and from 1990 to 1994 Curator at the Galerie Nationale du Jeu de Paume, Paris. From 1994 to 1997, she served as Artistic Director for documenta X in Kassel, Germany (1997), and from 1998 she has been Director of the long-term project Contemporary Arab Representations which began at the Fundació Antoni Tàpies in Barcelona. Between 2002 and 2004, she was Director of the Witte de With Center of Contemporary Art in Rotterdam in the Netherlands. She currently works as Deputy Director of Musée National d’Art Moderne, Paris.

Contemporary Saudi artist Manal AlDowayan (b. 1973, Dhahran) embraces themes of invisibility, active forgetting, archives, and collective memory with a focus on the condition of Saudi women and their representation. Through photography, sculpture, textiles, and participatory installations, she explores the spatial and social dynamics of public and private spheres. The artist thus expresses personal experiences and observations of time and space in order to resonate with a potentially broader audience.

This episode of The Misk Art Library Podcast brings Sudanese painter Salah Elmur who talks about memory, imagination, and artistic identity. Elmur reflects on his Sudanese upbringing, his dreamlike paintings, and his reluctance to label himself as an artist. He explores how memory, place, and biography shape artistic voice.

His work is featured in the Misk Art Library volume Salah Elmur: Visual Chronicles available in English and Arabic.

Salah Elmur (born 1966, Al Jarif, Sudan) is an artist, graphic designer, filmmaker, and author whose artistic practice showcases a visual anthology and fabulist interpretation of real and fictive events. Elmur unites disparate, emblematic elements, creating strongly symbolic and colourful paintings that feature figures he extracts from his “cerebral boxes.” Having lived between Sudan, Kenya, and Egypt, Elmur’s creative output is informed by these multiple experiences – of the people, nature, and wildlife. His subjects transport viewers to a new reality in which relations shift and nostalgia prevails. His work carries a deep sense of sympathy for the human spirit, connecting the rich and diverse spectrum of tradition and culture.

Iraqi artist Rafa Nasiri (1940–2013) is considered one of the most influential artists within the sphere of fine arts in the Arab world, largely due to his artistry and his role in establishing some of the most notable art groups. A painter, printmaker, graphic designer, and art teacher, Nasiri also authored several art books, including one on his early experience in China. He is known for his unique abstract works inspired by nature, open spaces, and cosmic scenes in which he incorporated Arabic letters, poetry, and calligraphy. This book documents Nasiri’s career, focusing on the distinction of his experience and artistic visions that reflect the diversity of his creativity and the depth of his awareness, as well as his legacy within the canon of modern art.

Lulwah Al Homoud (born in 1967) is a pioneer of the Saudi contemporary art movement, whose works fuse spirituality, the written word and mathematical calculations in a novel artistic vocabulary, or what she describes as “spiritual art.” Drawing inspiration from the spirit of Islamic art, as well as the oeuvres of poets and philosophers such as Abu al-Atahiya and Jalal al-Din Rumi, Al Homoud constructs dialogues between language and letters, developing a relationship between form, concept, dimension and spirituality. This book is an anthology of her works, and explores the intersections between spirituality and calligraphy.
