11:00 am - 7:00 pm
'Stereotype' Curated By Contemporary Lab
Featured Artists: Hmoud AlAttawi, Saad AlHowede (KSA) & Madiha Sebbani (MA)
The Exhibition 'Stereotype' consists of a selection of works from Wasm Studio (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) & Contemporary Lab (United Kingdom) and questions identity, confronting the ‘grouping’ of people and the societal dynamics which perpetuates a perception in our global consciousness.
Human generalization creates groups of people in regard to ethnicity, propaganda, culture or religious beliefs. Social psychology explains this behavior as a generalized belief about another particular 'category' of people. The Etymology of a Stereotype is described as a 'solid impression', informed by one or more ideas or theories.
The Cluster Contemporary fair highlights contemporary visual art practices including all mediums from painting, sculpture, performance, sound and new media. The 2022 fair entitled 'Pandemonium & Order' gives young artists from around the world a platform to express their views on the new world order as it emerges from the chaos and ruins of the old world. Based on the concept that the ideology and global socio-economic structures of our current world order are profoundly unsustainable.
Cluster Contemporary wants to champion a new generation of visual artists that explore different prospective realities and break the norms and stigmas defining contemporary culture and ideology.
