The second in a three-part roundtable titled Sharjah Biennials in Retrospect, this session features Hoor Al Qasimi (President and Director, Sharjah Art Foundation), Peter Lewis (curator), Jack Persekian (Director, Al Ma'mal Foundation) and Suha Shoman (Founder and Chair, Darat al Funun, The Khalid Shoman Foundation). The speakers focus on the three editions of the Sharjah Biennial that were held after 2003, when the Biennial changed from the traditional model of nation-state representation into a curated exhibition with an overarching theme and collateral events. The session is moderated by Tarek Abou El Fetouh (curator).
