'We Didn’t Know We’re Ready', curated by Silvia Cirelli: Piero Atchugarry Gallery is pleased to announce 'We Didn’t Know We’re Ready' by Tunisian artist Nadia Kaabi-Linke curated by Silvia Cirelli. The expressive journey of Kaabi-Linke delves into the complexities of human nature revealing an “architecture of pain” marked interdependent power dynamics and the struggles of mankind's vulnerability. Her work shows how people are affected by power, memory, and vulnerability. Memory is central to her work — it's the starting point for telling both personal and collective stories. Her artworks act like emotional records, helping us understand hidden parts of our culture today.

'Under Pressure Above Water', Curated by Nilüfer Şaşmazer: The group exhibition Under Pressure Above Water brings together 33 works by 15 artists across various media, including painting, sculpture, and photography, in Arter’s entrance and lower ground floor galleries. Structured around two interrelated sections, the exhibition explores the anxieties provoked by the uncertainties and social injustices of our time, such as environmental disasters, global conflicts, migration, and economic instability. Tracing the impact of challenging social conditions and compounding crises on individuals, it focuses on the questions and propositions that emerge from this context through the expressive possibilities of art.

'Women at Work: Intersection of Fine Art and Craft'. Curated by Wafa Roz: Women at Work: Intersection of Fine Art and Craft is an exploration of the innovative and intricate ways in which contemporary women artists from across the Arab world channel the creative force born at the intersection of fine art and craft. Working across media such as textiles, ceramics, metal, painting, photography, and drawing, these artists engage with materials and technical skills in ways that defy and question the need for boundaries between fine art and craft.

'As I Lay Between Two Seas' curated by Meriem Berrada, offers a poetic exploration of belonging, identity, and home. Featuring works by twenty-five artists from the Arab world and its diasporas.The works presented each display a different expression of movement–whether physical, temporal, or forced. They resist linear narratives and stereotypical depictions of displacement and migration. Instead, they collectively form a new web of meanings and (hi)stories that add depth and contribute to the broader discussions on migratory movements, rapid urbanization, political upheavals, and the lived realities of exile.

Featuring... is a project that redefines the roles within the art field, shifting the dynamic viewers and artists. During my one-month residency in Tunis, I worked closely with six company employees. This series of performances and installations stems from a profound belief that every human is inherently creative. The distinction between artists and non-artists lies in memory: artists preserve the creativity they discovered in childhood, while others may forget, persuaded by the illusion that they lack talent. My deep conviction led to a journey of remembrance, resulting in stunning works. In this project, the employees became the authors, while I served as their instrument, bringing their dream projects to life — like a brush in the hands of a painter.
