Introduction

Sharjah Biennial 12

Beginning with March Meeting 2014 and continuing through March Meeting 2015 (May 11–15, 2015), Sharjah Biennial 12: The past, the present, the possible (SB12) invited over fifty Artists and cultural practitioners from over twenty-five countries to introduce their ideas of the possible through their art and work. The exhibition took place in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates, crossing the emirate to sites in and around the city as well as in the city of Kalba on the Gulf of Oman. Over two-thirds of participating artists presented new works and commissions.

Programming for SB12 included monthly lectures and workshops in various locations around Sharjah from September 2014 to February 2015. All presentations took place at Sharjah Art Foundation unless otherwise noted.

Sharjah Biennial 12: The past, the present, the possible was conceived by Eungie Joo with associate curator, Ryan Inouye.
