  • The Museum of Islamic Art and the Discursive Endeavour of Displaying Islamic Art in Qatar Eva-Maria Tepest*
    Museum & Society, 17 (2) 157 ‘Temporary Until Further Notice’: The Museum of Islamic Art and the Discursive Endeavour of Displaying Islamic Art in Qatar Eva-Maria Tepest* Abstract Taking the case of curatorial practices at the Museum of Islamic Art (MIA) in Doha, this study analyses practices of exhibiting Islamic art in Qatar. Drawing on interviews, observations and visual material collected during a stay in Doha in November and December 2015, it sheds light on MIA’s conditions, history, and present. Against the backdrop of Michel Foucault’s writings on power/knowledge, I argue that MIA cannot be understood on the basis of a dominant liberal cultural policy paradigm. Rather, it needs to be understood as ‘a dynamic and contingent multiplicity’ (Barad 2007: 147). Notwithstanding, this multiplicity meaningfully relates to Qatar’s shifting political priorities as well as discourses on Islamic art and the exhibition. Key Words: Qatar, Islamic art, cultural policy, museum, Foucault Introduction Museum establishments in Qatar have caused a great stir in the past decade, with Qatar particularly venturing to establish itself as one of the key actors for funding, collecting, and promoting Islamic art, notably through the establishment of the Museum of Islamic Art (MIA) in 2008. Due to its enormous hydrocarbon wealth,1 Qatar has undergone significant economic growth since the beginning of the 1970s, making it the world’s highest income country per capita as of 2015.2 Enabled by these enormous revenues Qatar, among other things, has invested heavily in the cultural-educational sector. Within this context and following the coup d’état of Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani in 1995, the grander scheme of museum establishments started to get enacted.

  • Gagosian Gallery
    Artsy April 2, 2019 GAGOSIAN How Takashi Murakami Got His Start as an Artist Scott Indrisek “At the studio I rented for $80 a month on Lorimer Street in Brooklyn, uncertain whether I would have anything to eat the next day.” © Takashi Murakami/Kaikai Kiki Co., Ltd. All Rights Reserved. Courtesy of Gagosian. In the second installment of a new series, we continue to shine a light on the tumultuous early days of artists who have since become household names. Takashi Murakami, 57, may now be an international art star and a cultural icon, but he was once a disgruntled student, bored with his conservative schooling and dreaming of better things. Indeed, when he was just starting out, Murakami claimed no special status as an artist. “I was never particularly talented at drawing or painting,” he said; hard work, practice, and determination would sharpen those skills. He had his first solo show in 1989, at Tokyo’s Ginza Surugadai Gallery, and began traveling from his native Japan to New York City around that time. Murakami always thought of New York as one of the art world’s vital centers, and he was willing to struggle in order to absorb what it had to offer. He recalled once renting a studio on Lorimer Street in Brooklyn for a mere $80 a month (“uncertain whether I would have anything to eat the next day,” he added). In 1994, he landed a residency in the prestigious PS1 International Studio Program. These early experiences helped shape Murakami’s unique artistic vision. The hyperconfident artist would eventually become a global brand, his manga-inspired creations taking over the world—one wild sculpture and painting at a time.

  • TAKASHI MURAKAMI the OCTOPUS EATS ITS OWN LEG June 10 – September 16, 2018
    CONTACT: Kendal Smith Lake Manager of Communications 817.738.9215 x167 [email protected] www.themodern.org Fort Worth, TX FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October XX, 2017 Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth Presents TAKASHI MURAKAMI THE OCTOPUS EATS ITS OWN LEG June 10 – September 16, 2018 This summer, the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth hosts the highly anticipated major retrospective Takashi Murakami: The Octopus Eats Its Own Leg, showcasing more than three decades of Murakami’s paintings, from his earliest mature works to his most recent, never-before-seen paintings. Across over fifty works, this seminal exhibition reveals the consistent, universal themes that have guided the artist’s work, reflecting his exquisite level of craft and insightful engagement with history. The exhibition was organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago and curated by MCA Chief Curator Michael Darling. Takashi Murakami: The Octopus Eats Its Own Leg will be on view to the public at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth from June 10 through September 16, 2018. One of the most imaginative artists working today, Murakami has created a colorful cast of characters inspired by folklore, art history, and popular culture that blurs the boundaries between high and low, ancient and modern, Eastern and Western. His signature style, which he calls “Superflat,” pairs traditional Japanese painting techniques with a contemporary, anime-inspired aesthetic within a flattened picture plane. The title of the exhibition is a Japanese folk saying that hints at the process of rejuvenation. An octopus in distress can chew off a damaged leg to ensure survival, knowing that a new one will grow in its place.

    Change the Rule! Opening reception: Thursday, September 20, 6–8pm September 20–November 10, 2018 7/F Pedder Building, 12 Pedder Street, Central Takashi Murakami, The Lion of the Kingdom that Transcends Death, 2018, acrylic on canvas mounted on aluminum frame, 59 1/8 × 118 1/8 inches (150 × 300 cm) © 2018 Takashi Murakami/Kaikai Kiki Co., Ltd. All rights reserved September , When I manage to snatch the tail of an idea, I must then transport a fragment of it to a completely different region of my brain . Once a deadline is met, that region can relax, so I graft the new idea onto that relaxed region in order to nurture and grow it. This is the process I endlessly repeat, and as such, I can never see the end of it; each day of unease is followed by another, and only for a moment when a project is complete do I get to experience a modicum of liberation. As a distant result of such a thankless, humorless repetition, interesting works get made. —Takashi Murakami Gagosian is pleased to present Change the Rule!, new paintings and sculptures by Takashi Murakami. Murakami seamlessly blends commercial imagery, anime, manga, and traditional Japanese styles and subjects, revealing the themes and questions that connect past and present, East and West, technology and fantasy. His paintings, sculptures, and films are populated by repeated motifs and evolving characters of his own creation. Together with dystopian themes and contemporary references, he revitalizes narratives of transcendence in continuation of the nonconformist legacy of a group of eighteenth-century Japanese artists known as the Edo eccentrics.

  • Museums and Cultural Diplomacy Projects in Qatar and the Middle East
    Museums and Cultural Diplomacy Projects in Qatar and the Middle East Sumantro Ghose, Deputy Director, Cultural Diplomacy Projects, Qatar Museums Authority Paper presented at Institute of Cultural Diplomacy Conference, Berlin 17-21 December 2013 Abstract The early 21st century has seen a large expansion in the cultural sector in the Middle East, a development that is most visible in the creation of a number of iconic new museums in the Gulf region, many of which are still under construction. This paper focuses on Qatar and the ambitious projects and cultural exchange programmes of the Qatar Museums Authority, which was founded in 2005 with a remit to develop museums, cultural institutions and heritage sites in the country. QMA has overseen the development of the Museum of Islamic Art and Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art and in 2012 it launched a series of bilateral cultural exchange programmes that include Qatar Japan 2012 and Qatar UK 2013 Years of Culture. In two of the region’s largest new museum construction projects, new outposts of the Louvre and Guggenheim are currently being built in the United Arab Emirates, whilst in Saudi Arabia the King Abdul Azziz Center for World Culture is due to open in late 2015. This paper explores, from a practical rather than theoretical perspective, the degree to which these new museum projects can be seen as tools for cultural diplomacy. The strategic objectives and aspirations of these countries’ cultural initiatives are similar in many respects, as they are driving social development within their own borders, and redefining each country’s relations with the region and wider global community.
