Doha Exhibition – Told / Untold / Retold: For an Arab Contemporary Art

Is there such a thing as Arab contemporary art? Yes, answers Diptyk #9, back from “Told/Untold/Retold”, the inaugural exhibition of Mathaf in Doha, a key moment in the history of modern and contemporary Arab art. This February–March 2011 issue profiles Mounir Fatmi and his machinations, on the cover, and meets Younès Rahmoun, a mystic with a highly constructed body of work. It also publishes Raed Bawayah’s portfolio. On the market side, it covers Arco and Art Dubai, the major events of the year.
