  • Modernity, Wahhabi Islam and Monarchial Power in Qatar
    MODERNITY, WAHHABI ISLAM, AND MONARCHIAL POWER IN QATAR EXHIBITED IN ITS CONTEMPORARY ART ____________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University Dominguez Hills ____________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Humanities ____________ by Christine Crane Fall 2017 This thesis is dedicated to my husband, Mark, whose confidence in me and support made it possible. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to acknowledge my mentor Dr. Patricia Gamon. I would also like to acknowledge the use of the library and graduate tutoring services at Utah Valley University, especially the help and support of Rebecca and Kelsey in the Writing Center. iii PREFACE Because of the laws in the Gulf that do not allow for criticism of any of the Gulf monarchy as well as Islam, in order to maintain their position at Qatari schools or even their research and travel privileges in the Gulf, authors ignore or soft-pedal any serious problems in the Gulf states; this must be taken into consideration when doing any research regarding this region. Another shortsightedness, I have also seen repeated in the scholarship of Qatar is a disregard for the belief in Wahhabi Islam, almost always reducing it to a “culture” or “tradition.” I examine art created and collected within a cultural context that includes the influence of Wahhabi Islam as religion. To this end, I have chosen to use the English word for Allah, which is of course God. My sources are entirely based on English-language sources. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE DEDICATION ......................................................................................................................... ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS....................................................................................................iii PREFACE ...............................................................................................................................

  • The Case of Katara Cultural Village in Qatar
    Architecture Research 2017, 7(4): 109-122 DOI: 10.5923/j.arch.20170704.01 The Role of Public Art and Culture in New Urban Environments: The Case of Katara Cultural Village in Qatar Maryam Al Suwaidi1, Raffaello Furlan2,* 1Candidate in the Master Program in Urban Planning and Design (MUPD) at Qatar University, State of Qatar 2College of Engineering, Department of Architecture and Urban Planning (DAUP), Qatar University, State of Qatar Abstract In recent years, public art has been featured as a trend in urban environments in GCC. During its period of development, the State of Qatar worked on large megaprojects designed to attract global investments and tourists. Also, the current process of globalization has greatly contributed to increasing competition between cities and promoting the development of public art within new urban developments. This research study discusses the role of public art in influencing urban environments in Qatar, namely within Katara Cultural Village. The study explores the extent to which such an approach can raise local communities’ environmental awareness as an indirect input to the process of upgrading the desires of those living in these areas and of international tourists. In addition, it reviews the experiences of different types of catalysts for regeneration, such as art and culture, that can enhance the built environment’s recognition, value, and economic growth. A qualitative evaluation is employed for this research study, which leverages subjective methods such as interviews and observations to collect substantive and relevant data while examining the interaction of connectivity, attraction, and development as they relate to economics and other multifaceted aspects of development.
