We are excited to present 'By the Movement of All Things | بِإيقاعِ كُلِّ شيئ', a group exhibition curated by Hamzeh Alfarahneh, opening on 16 November at 4–8 PM. The exhibition will feature works by Igshaan Adams, Hamra Abbas, Diana Al-Hadid, James Webb, Bronwyn Katz, Timo Nasseri, and Moshekwa Langa.
Borrowing its title from Aimé Césaire’s Notebook of a Return to My Native Land, the exhibition invites viewers to engage with art as an active form of encounter and learning—reflecting their own lived experiences through the movement of all things.
The exhibition continues Alfarahneh’s ongoing investigation into Global Majority abstract practices, focusing on the affinities and resonances between South African and Middle Eastern non-figurative approaches. It foregrounds lines of contact that complicate established regional and disciplinary narratives.
Here, for the first time in this curatorial sequence, the exhibition is organised through a framework that Alfarahneh terms “structures of knowledge”—a mode of thinking that interrogates what kinds of knowledge exist outside the dominant canon, and what role curators and institutions play in safeguarding, proposing, and presenting non-institutional know-how, thematics, and ancestral wisdoms. Rather than offering neat oppositions, this framework asks how exhibition-making can surface practices of knowing that operate through gesture, lineage, and embodied memory.
