  • 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.

  • 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.

Establishing Kuwait’s as modern, democratic, and independent nation, paradoxically, depended on a network of international organizations, foreign consultants, and world-renowned architects to build a series of architectural projects with a hybrid of local and foreign forms and functions to produce a convincing image of Kuwait national autonomy. Kuwait nationalism relied on architecture’s ability, as an art medium, to produce a seamless image of Kuwait as a modern country and led to citing it as one of the most democratic states in the Middle East. The construction of all major projects of Kuwait’s nation building followed a similar path; for example, all mashare’e kubra [major projects] of the state that started early 1960s included particular geometries, monumental forms, and symbolic elements inspired by the vernacular life of Kuwait to establish its legitimacy.

  • 1 Speaking About Qatar
    SPEAKING ABOUT QATAR: DISCOURSES ON NATIONAL IDENTITY IN POSTCOLONIAL GULF Erick Viramontes Viramontes A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University July, 2018 1 DECLARATION This thesis is an account of research undertaken between January 2014 and July 2018 at the Research School of Social Sciences, School of Politics and International Relations, The Australian National University, Canberra, Australia. Except where acknowledged in the customary manner, the material presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge, original and has not been submitted in whole or part for a degree in any university. __________________________ Erick Viramontes Viramontes July 2018 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The process that led to this thesis, which began in mid-2013 in the Mexican Altiplano, was full of satisfaction and learning, but also carried with it moments of frustration, difficulty and despair. For this reason, its completion would not have been possible without the unconditional support and invaluable advice from many people to whom I will be forever grateful. I would like to express my deepest thanks to the members of my panel, who provided challenging and enriching insights at every step along this long journey. In particular, I would like to thank my primary supervisor, April Biccum, for her emphasis on the theoretical implications of my research, and my advisor Sean Burges, whose comments helped develop my thinking. I would also like to thank James Piscatori and Mathew Gray from the Center for Arab and Islamic Studies, who put their knowledge and expertise on the Middle East at the service of this project, and Sean Foley, who was a visiting fellow at the Center during my time as a Ph.D.

  • The Case of Qatar National Museum-Souq Waqif Corridor
    Article Place-Making of Transit Towns in Qatar: The Case of Qatar National Museum-Souq Waqif Corridor Khalida Marthya * , Raffaello Furlan , Labeeb Ellath , Maha Esmat and Rashid Al-Matwi Department of Architecture and Urban Planning, Qatar University, Doha 3263, Qatar; [email protected] (R.F.); [email protected] (L.E.); [email protected] (M.E.); [email protected] (R.A.-M.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Over the last two decades, Doha, the capital city of Qatar, has undergone rapid urbanization. The city has capitalized large-scale urban and infrastructural projects resulting in a loss of historical areas of heritage value to people. Recent construction of the Doha Metro is opening avenues for place- making of transit towns through a framework envisioned by the need to shape compact, livable and sustainable neighborhoods and to mitigate the effects of urbanization on valuable historical heritage sites. Due to its historic significance, the Qatar National Museum (QNM)-Souq Waqif corridor is the case study selected for exploring and defining a framework for a contextualized place-making transit-oriented development (TOD) model. The research design is structured by reviewing the literature about TODs and the need for place-making model in Qatar, followed by collecting visual data from municipal authorities, through site visits, and site observations. The data are then analyzed to propose a novel masterplan, rooted in key urban design components of place-making. The insights will contribute to proposals for context-driven design strategies to enhance livability of the site and to extend its application to other potential transit hubs in metropolitan Doha and in the Middle East.

It is also a country whose modern history has been defined by oil, with all the dramatic change that its discovery brought. Today, as we enter a new era, Qatar’s trajectory onto the contemporary world stage has been just as rapid. Already we are in the vanguard of technological advance and are preparing, through the ambitious 2030 Qatar National Vision, an outward-facing, creative and sustainable future for all our people. But a future must grow out of an understood and integrated past. So, as we move forward, we are focusing strongly on culture, in diverse forms. We are delving into our Arab heritage while also exploring the arts as they are evolving today, both within Qatar and far beyond. In particular, we are encouraging our own young artists, many of whom are women.

  • Uhpfrc Cladding for the Qatar National Museum
    RILEM-fib-AFGC Int. Symposium on Ultra-High Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete, UHPFRC 2013 – October 1-3, 2013, Marseille, France UHPFRC CLADDING FOR THE QATAR NATIONAL MUSEUM Dr Philippe Menétrey (1) (1) INGPHI SA, Lausanne, Switzerland Abstract The Qatar National Museum (QNM) under construction in Doha is composed of various lens disposed in order to reproduce a giant gypsum flower as proposed by the Ateliers Jean Nouvel in Paris. The lenses which compose the shape of the structure are covered with precast UHPFRC cladding panels over an area of 120’000 m2. The use of UHPFRC allows reducing the thickness of the cladding to 40 mm without using passive reinforcement even thought the panels are large and the wind and temperature variation are extreme. The use of UHPFRC allows fulfilling all the requirements over the durability of the panel. The project of the cladding system with UHPFRC panels is described in this paper. Résumé Le musée national du Qatar en construction à Doha est composé d’une multitude de lentilles disposées aléatoirement afin de créer une gigantesque rose des sables comme proposé par les Ateliers Jean Nouvel à Paris. Les lentilles qui génèrent la forme de la structure sont recouvertes de panneaux préfabriqués en UHPFRC sur une surface de 120'000 m2. L’utilisation de UHPFRC a permis de réduire l’épaisseur des panneaux à 40 mm sans utiliser d’armature passive bien que la taille des panneaux est importante et que les sollicitations dues au vent et aux variations de température soient extrêmes. L’utilisation de UHPFRC a également permis de satisfaire toutes les exigences au niveau de la durabilité.
