The fair drives meaningful engagement with the rich cultural heritage and contemporary art practices of the region and extending to territories across Southeast and Central Asia, the African continent, and Latin America through presentations across its gallery sections.\r\n\r\nWhile there has been much art historical focus on Western cities that have supported \u00e9migr\u00e9 artists and shaped artistic styles or movements \u2014 such as London, Paris or New York \u2014 it is well known that non-Western art centres remain understudied. One such example can be found during the Cold War, where both Western countries and the Soviet Union used culture as a tool and began state supported exchange programmes for artists. While much scholarship has been focused on the artistic movements of America and Europe during this post-WWII period, much less has been written about the \u201cEast\u201d, and even less on the international artists who visited as part of public initiatives.\r\n\r\nArt Dubai Modern 2024 aims to contribute to this area of study. Curated by Dr Christianna Bonin, assistant professor of art history at the American University of Sharjah and an expert in Cold War-era cultures and global modernisms, the section will explore artists and filmmakers from the Middle East, Africa and South Asia who took part in cultural exchange programmes with the Soviet Union and how the experience shaped their works and careers. These programmes \u201ccreated intricate East-East and South-South cultural links,\u201d Bonin says.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nFor more information read<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artdubai.ae\/blog\/art-dubai-modern-2024-presents-an-alternative-perspective-on-modern-art-after-1960\/\">here.<\/a><\/strong>","_en_post_name":"the-curator-of-lkham-gallery-will-be-curating-art-dubai-modern-2024","_en_post_excerpt":"","_en_post_title":"Former Lkham Gallery Curator Leads Art Dubai Modern 2024","_mn_post_content":"","_mn_post_name":"","_mn_post_excerpt":"","_mn_post_title":"","edit_language":"mn","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-702","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-1"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/702","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=702"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/702\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1025,"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/702\/revisions\/1025"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/564"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=702"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=702"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lkhamgallery.com\/mn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=702"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
