At Art Dubai 2013 we are presenting two artists: American-Lebanese Annabel Daou, born in 1968 who lives and works in New York and Bosnian artist Šejla Kamerić who lives and works in Berlin and in Sarajevo. Although both artists are using different media, both works are strongly influenced by their historical and cultural backgrounds. The weight of their themes stands in powerful contrast to their individual aesthetics and to their choices of delicate materials. Recent political events, the question of identity and feminism are important topics discussed within their artistic practise.
