Masa lies as a massive four-legged animal in the form of a phony museum crafted with fake objects. In fact, we are on a suspicious ground that the tickets to non-existing concerts and unwritten newspaper articles are laid out in front of us, and actually it doesn’t really matter if the audience believes in them or not.

Bringing back one of the most iconic works related to politics in modern art history, Guernica (the original was previously exhibited in 1939 at the Whitechapel Gallery), is both a reference to the history of The Whitechapel Gallery’s space, as well as to the current relation of art, propaganda and politics.

Adel Abidin. Symphony, 2011

The project is the accumulation of a year long process of research and production with two separate phases. It began to take shape immediately after the incident and emerged first as a two-part project presented in different media. This first phase consisted of a sculpture-based installation and a video installation as part of the artist’s solo exhibition at Arter, Istanbul in November 2012. In the second phase, additional research led Abidin to discover fresh sources and new points of departure, bringing him deeper into his subject. Then he presented the second and final phase of the journey in a different location, in Lawrie Shabibi, Dubai. In this book, writers and curators such as Nat Muller, Arie Amaya-Akkermans, Daniella
Rose King, Didem Yazici, and the curator of the project, Basak Senova discuss and respond to this specific project. Through different viewpoints, they focus on Abidin’s artistic approach and working methodology, the works that the project inhabits, the curatorial approach and spatial design of the presentation along with the conceptual basis in a critical framework. The book starts with an interview with Abidin which reveals the evolution of his motives, ideas, and objectives.

The publication coincides with an exhibition of the same title by Adel Abidin and curated by Basak Senova at Lawrie Shabibi, Dubai 18 March - 18 April 2013. Copyright © 2011 Lawrie Shabibi, writers and artist.
