Masaha Residents in conversation with Dr. Eiman ElGibreen and Tarfa bint Fahad regarding the importance of art initiatives and opportunities for artists.

Masterclass

Hosted by Munira Al Sayegh

Rooted in Curatorial Practice, this masterclass presents mini-case studies for participants to survey their art ecosystems and propose new forms of cultural instigation, responsive grassroots initiatives, and community engagement. The session invites everyone to revisit their positions as well as negotiate between creatives, decision-makers and ultimately capture the nuance of voices in local and regional communities.

An evening full of creative expression hosted by the creatives-in-residents.

Emerging and early career artists

Pricing artwork is one of the most complex tasks that emerging artists face, especially at the beginning of their career when they begin to work with galleries, institutions, and public. The sessions will give artists an idea on how to price their artwork, considering where they plan on selling it and what other comparable art is being sold in that space. Artists will have a chance to see how art valuation is a process that considers both the effort in creating the work as well as the environment.
