Details

Bayt AlMamzar is delighted to announce the exhibition Introduction, a solo show by Saif Mhaisen and the first exhibition of a resident artist of the Bayt.

Curated by Munira Al Sayegh, Introduction is an exhibition of fourteen drawings — the result of a process centered around Saif Mhaisen’s connection to his community.

Conceived as the opening chapter of an ongoing story, Mhaisen’s charcoal drawings are embodiments of his private conversations with the artists, writers, curators and educators that make up this community.

With an unrelenting belief in the value of individual attention at its core, this show marks Mhaisen’s return to art practice, and the beginning of a story of community: told not in snapshots but in relationships embodied, one at a time.
