Ayyam Gallery Dubai (11 Alserkal Avenue) is pleased to announce Our Night is Long, a collective exhibition exploring how painters and photographers are recording the ongoing conflicts that have distraught the Middle East and North Africa. 

 

The title of the exhibition is adapted from Iraq’s Night is Long, a poem by Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish that mourns the country’s destruction. Highlighting works by Sadik Kwaish Alfraji, Sama Alshaibi, Thaier Helal, Rula Halawani, Fathallah Zamroud, and Tammam Azzam, Our Night is Long reveals some of the many ways artists have addressed the overlapping calamities that are currently afflicting the region.
