Between Desert and Sea

A Selection from the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts

In collaboration with the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts, the exhibition Between Desert and Sea comprised modern and contemporary works of various artists from Arab countries around the Mediterranean. The works of artists from Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestine, and Tunisia reflected the questions posed by the artists between past and present; between creativity and the real world.

The exhibition catalogue presents the styles of different generations and the new tendencies in Arab art through paintings, drawings, engravings, ceramics, statues, and installations. This catalogue is a good resource for understanding trends in Arab contemporary art.
