About the book >.>.> Embodying Poems by Cristiana de Marchi features the innovative art of Hassan Sharif, recognised as the first experimental performance artist in the Gulf region. This work presents a critical exploration of Sharif's contributions to the art history of the UAE, particularly through his performance pieces in the early 1980s. Influenced by Fluxus artists, Sharif engaged with the everyday by using simple actions and gestures?such as walking, jumping, swinging, speaking, digging, and throwing stones. He incorporated everyday objects like a toilet, nylon rope, milk bottle, hair, and stones, reflecting Duchampian ideas that challenge traditional artistic skill and craftsmanship.The text highlights the significance of Sharif's approach, showcasing how he infused mundane actions and found objects into art, thus redefining the boundaries of creativity in the region. By embracing the banal and the accessible, his works invite audiences to reconsider the definitions of art and artistic practice. Sharif's statement on his craft reinforces the notion that art should be approachable and attainable, encouraging participation from a broader audience.This publication serves as both an artistic document and a tribute to Sharif's vision, underlining the transformative impact of his work on contemporary performance art in the Gulf. The synergy of de Marchi?s poetry and Sharif?s visual artistry provides a rich and layered reading experience, reflecting the intersection of thought, language, and artistic expression. With ISBN 9789948137412, this book represents a significant addition to the understanding of modern art practices within the UAE and beyond.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Nakba not only resulted in the loss of the homeland, but also caused the dispersal and ruin of entire Palestinian communities. Even though the term Nakba refers to a singular historic event, the consequence of 1948 has symptomatically become part of Palestinian identity, and the element that demarcates who the Palestinian is. Palestinian exile and loss have evolved into cultural symbols that at once help define the person and allow the person to remember the loss. Although accounts of the Palestinians' experience of the expulsion from the land are similar, the emblems that provoke these particular memories differ. Certain mementos, memories or objects help in commemorating the homeland.…

No Binding. Zustand: Very Good. A set of three original b/w photos issued shortly after the inauguration of Khor Fakkan Container Terminal and start of operations in 1979. Each 252x202mm including white border, with the same printed title label glued to the versos. Very good or better with the labels darkened. The photographer and publisher are not named, but they may well have been issued by the Sharjah Ports Authority. Sharjah's exclave on the Gulf of Oman is the site of the only natural deep-sea port in the region. Advantageously avoiding the Strait of Hormuz, it forms part of the maritime silk route linking the Mediterranean with China. Its construction involved reclaiming land for storage, large cranes, and deep quays for large vessels. The photos show different views of the cargo vessels Emirates Express, Panetolikon, and Lok Nayak berthed at its quays, along with a scattering of dhows.…

No Binding. Zustand: Good. A unique composite colour printed paper pilot's map approx 176x26cm. Good, neatly folded with a couple of fold tears, clearly used with flight lines neatly drawn on, related ms annotations, location references, spot heights, and calculations. No dates are retained, but 1945 based on the edition numbers of the Hofuf and Basra sheets (OCLC 1535521707,1532281630, 234163828). An improvisation like this was a practical way around carrying several standard format charts that could not conveniently show the long linear routes flown. This one is made up of 5 adjacent sheets from the Army / Air Style Asia 1/1M Series, each neatly cropped into small squares and stuck together to form a continuous slightly bow-shaped image without borders. The sheet titles with a couple of editions (identifiable when the joins are held to the light) include in sequence from NW to SE: I-38 Baghdad, H-38 Basra (7th Edition, Army / Air Style), H-39 Bushire, G-39 Hofuf (4th Edition), and G-40 Bandar Abbas. Between them they cover from the environs of Tikrit in Iraq to Buraimi Oasis and beyond. Stretches of the Gulf coasts are retained, including Bushire on the Persian side, and Kuwait, the Neutral Zone, some of Saudi, all 7 Trucial States, and Oman on the Arabian. Two routes are drawn from Habbaniya to Kuwait City, one direct, the other via Shu'aiba (Shaibah), then a single direct route over Gulf waters exactly along the mid-point of the sheets to Sharjah, which has an onward line labelled off sheet "To Jiwani". RAF Habbaniya, a major imperial base 55 miles to the west of Baghdad, housed Air HQ Iraq and Persia. Late in WW2 it was an important stage on the southern UK-USSR route, a USAAF stopover for its large Lend-Lease aircraft between the assembly facility at Abadan and Cairo, and a USAAF transport route to Mehrabad (Tehran). RAF Station Shaibah a few miles SW of Basrah came under Air HQ Iraq and Persia, was significantly expanded during WW2 to support RAF Habbaniya, and after WW2 helped in the evacuation of AIOC personnel from Abadan during nationalisation (1951-53). The RAF did not have a formal base close to Kuwait City, but were able to land there. RAF Sharjah, first established as an important base for Imperial Airways in 1932, played a vital role in supporting British military operations in the Peninsula during WW2 and in the years to independence. RAF Jiwani located in Omani-ruled Gwadar (Balochistan) was a major RAF and USAAF stopover between Sharjah and Karachi during WW2.…

No Binding. Zustand: Very Good. A highly decorative plate celebrating the establishment of the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI) by the Decree of Khalid bin Mohammed Al Qasimi in 1970. The metal is quite soft, possibly tin or pewter, 27cm in diameter with a depth of @2cm, weighing 0.8Kg. The top centres on the old SCCI logo featuring an oil derrick, factory chimneys and crane encircled by a cog wheel with a wreath to the bottom, with blue, white and green colouring. This is decoratively encircled with English and Arabic texts to the broad rim. The base, with a fixed loop for hanging, reveals it was made by FahnenFleck Intl, with their West Germany address and telex number. Although the plate is dated 1970 with no other milestone or anniversary indicated, the manufacturer's postcode D-2080 suggests it was made at some point from 1975 when they moved to Pinneberg in Schleswig Holstein, and certainly before 1990/91. Very good with some light scratches and marks.…

Beautiful glossy press photograph of the Souk al-Markazi, or Blue Souk, in Sharjah. The impressive building was designed by British architects Michael Lyle & Partners, and completed in 1978. Meant to ressemble a traditional bazaar, it is one of the most iconic buildings in Sharjah, and serves as the main shopping centre. The present photograph of the souk was taken in January 1980 for the Sunday edition of Associated Press News (APN). It accompanied an article by Elias Antar (dates unknown) about the United Arab Emirates. The description by APN that would have come with the photograph when it was requested for use, is included on the back.The lower right corner of the photograph is slightly creased, without affecting the image. Otherwise in very good condition. Housed in a clear plastic folder, with a piece of cardboard for protection. One photograph. Pages: 1 photograph.…
