This exhibition guide highlights recent acquisitions and rarely seen historical works from the Sharjah Art Foundation Collection, intricately woven to narrate the significance of drawing as a practice. In Drawing Time: Duets, concepts of the ‘double’ are explored through works by 15 artists from diverse geographies and cultural backgrounds, including Amal Kenawy, Baya, Claudette Johnson, David Koloane, Eduard Puterbrot, Farideh Lashai, Hassan Sharif, Helen Khal, Ibrahim El-Salahi, Ibrahim Massouda, Kamala Ibrahim Ishag, Kimathi Donkor, Monir Canaan, Omer Khairy and Theaster Gates.


 

The guide includes a foreword from Hoor Al Qasimi, Foundation director; a curatorial note from Omar Kholeif, exhibition’ curator; and an essay from Collection researcher Souraya Talal Kreideh on the process and concepts of the exhibition.
