The Art World: What If...?! with Hoor Al Qasimi

from The Art World: What If...?! · host Allan Schwartzman and Charlotte Burns

What if we write our own histories? What if we create the change we seek?  In this episode, we talk to the President and Director of Sharjah Art Foundation, Hoor Al Qasimi, under whose watch, Sharjah has become one of the most influential centers for cultural creation and research in the Global South. From revamping art biennials to creating new universities, overseeing architectural triennials, running a fashion house, sitting on international museum boards, to curating large and small scale art projects around the world, Hoor Al Qasimi is perhaps one of the busiest people we have ever interviewed. At the heart of all of this is art, and Hoor's profound belief in its essential ability to change us as people, and her insistence that this needs to be done by working together. Tune in for more!
