  • Manora Field Notes & Beyond: a Conversation With
    Manora Field Notes & Beyond: A conversation with Naiza Khan In 2019, Naiza Khan became the first British-Pakistani artist to represent Pakistan for the country’s inaugural pavilion at the 58th Venice Biennale. Titled Manora Field Notes, the multimedia archival project was inspired by the artist’s twelve years of expansive research and documentation of the maritime trade and histories she unearthed on the island of Manora, situated on the southern part of the Karachi Peninsula. From 1986–1987, Khan studied at Wimbledon College of Art, before going on to receive her BFA in printmaking and painting from the Ruskin School of Fine Art, Oxford. She recently graduated with an MA in Research Architecture from Goldsmiths’ Department of Visual Cultures. Khan’s work has been widely exhibited internationally, including the Kochi- Muziris Biennale (2016) and the Shanghai Biennale (2012), as well as in exhibitions such as ‘Desperately Seeking Paradise’, Art Dubai, UAE (2008); ‘Hanging Firse: Contemporary Art From Pakistan’, Asia Society, New York (2009); Manifesta 8, Murcia, Spain (2010); the Cairo Biennale, Egypt (2010); ‘Restore the Boundaries: The Manora Project’, Rossi & Rossi Gallery and Art Dubai, Dubai, UAE (2010); ); ‘Art Decoding Violence’, XV Biennale Donna, Ferrara, Italy, (2012); and ‘Set In A Moment Yet Still Moving’, Koel Gallery, Karachi (2017). The artist has been selected for a number of fellowships and residencies, including Gasworks, London; the Rybon Art Centre, Tehran; and the Institute for Comparative Modernities, Cornell University, among others. As a founding member and long-time coordinator of the Vasl Artists’ Collective in Karachi, Khan has worked to foster art in the city and participated in a series of innovative art projects in partnership with other workshops in the region and beyond, such as the Khoj International Artists’ Association, New Delhi; the Britto Arts Trust, Dhaka, Bangladesh; the Sutra Art Foundation, Kathmandu, Nepal; and the Theertha International Artists’ Collective, Colombo, Sri Lanka.

  • ISLAMABAD: Karachi Under the Raj Exhibition Inaugurated
    http://www.dawn.com/2004/10/10/local1.htm 10 October 2004 Sunday 24 Shaban 1425 ISLAMABAD: Karachi under the Raj exhibition inaugurated By Our Staff Reporter KARACHI, Oct 9: The sneak preview of a major exhibition showcasing the history of Karachi from the Battle of Miani to partition was held on the lawns of Mohatta Palace on Saturday. Organized by the Mohatta Palace Museum in collaboration with the Dawn Group of Newspapers, the exhibition is titled Jewel in the Crown: Karachi under the Raj 1843 - 1947. Opening the exhibition, Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz announced a one-time grant of Rs10 million for the Mohatta Palace Museum. He observed that fund-raising was an art, and exhibition co- curator Hameed Haroon excelled in it. He also appreciated the manner in which exhibits had been put on display. The prime minister recalled that he had spent most of his youth in Karachi, adding that the city has become a bustling metropolis. Earlier, Mr Haroon recalled that the exhibition had first been held as part of Dawn's All about lifestyle show the previous year. "Judging from the response of the people of the city - 25,000 visitors in 36 hours - we decided to expand the exhibition, with an accent on the achievements of the sons of Karachi, including Sir Abdullah Haroon, the Aga Khan and Quaid-i- Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah," he said. He added that when the exhibition was formally launched after Ramazan, it would be accompanied by 24 CDs and 18 books, documenting the history of Karachi as well as the southern part of the country.

  • Sustaining Quality Annual Report 2016-17 Annual Repo R T 2 0 1 6 - 1 7 Sustaining Quality
    Sustaining Quality Annual Report 2016-17 Annual Repo r t 2 0 1 6 - 1 7 Sustaining Quality Annual Report 2016-17 Message from the Dean and Director The Institute has long had a reputation for delivering quality education. What does this rest on? For many, this rests on having admissions characterized by selectivity, teaching by discipline and examinations by integrity. These are critical aspects of quality and they stand out in a higher education environment where numerous examples can be given of the opposite. For many, the Institute’s reputation also rests on the success achieved by its graduates in their professional careers. An impressive proportion of leadership positions in Pakistan’s corporate sector is accounted for by graduates of the Institute, decade after decade. Some graduates have also achieved professional distinction in overseas jobs. Where do we stand today? I have the pleasure to report that several objective measures show that we continue to do well in terms of quality. For many years now, we have been strengthening the quality of our faculty. In FY13, we had 81 fulltime faculty of whom 34 had PhD qualifications. In FY17 we had 118 fulltime faculty of whom 65 had PhD qualifications. We have almost doubled the number of highly qualified faculty in five years. Research is internationally considered a mark of quality. The research orientation of our faculty has been rising over time. In calendar 2016, our faculty published 89 papers in journals and conference proceedings. What is more impressive is that 21 of these publications were in high-quality peer-reviewed international journals distinguished by a high rate of citation and, therefore, impact.

  • Playground.Pdf
    !1 Who We Are The playground is a community space, and a university-wide ecosystem, designed for creative collaborative work that helps transform the teaching and learning experience at Habib. It serves as a gateway, and enhances accessibility, to making and design activities across departments and schools. Playground has characteristics of a lab and studio that fosters pedagogical innovation through interdisciplinary design based research, operating between the fields of industrial, urban, interaction, communication and systems design. We aim to understand complex systemic problems in the world by utilizing praxis as a research tool. We believe in "getting our hands dirty" using workshops, exercises, prototypes, simulations and speculations to model the kinds of phenomenon we are studying. As a collaborative platform we aim to show the social relevance of design, where alternative strategies to improve our city and society can be exchanged using design research as a tool for innovation. We give an opportunity to individuals belonging to diverse disciplines and backgrounds to share their ideas and get feedback from stakeholders, and test out prototypes and solutions in the form of designed interventions, as well as gauge the impact of their interventions. We work on projects in cooperation with public partners such as, governments on one hand and private partners like companies on the other. We pursue practice-based research rooted in four core design disciplines: 1) Urbanism/Urban Design 2) Communication Design; 2) Industrial or Product Design; 3) Interaction Design; 4) Service or Systems Design. Similarly, we define and encourage several design approaches at the Playground, with a view to facilitate different forms of inquiry and outcomes: 1) Human-Centered Design; 2) Design Thinking 3) Participatory or Co-Design; 4) Speculative or Critical Design; 5) Design Futures & Forecasting; 6) Transition Design.
