Art writes with unexpected languages, and this artistic exposure may strip humans just as happened with the Jordanian Princess Wijdan Ali, the diplomatic artist whom practiced the charm of a Princess with her own artistic style, and incorporated her world in an unfamiliar... way.

In the framework of the cultural program of Shaikh Ebrahim Center for Culture and Research, Bahrain artist Ebrahim Bu Saad opens his new exhibition to express a new and unique experience, where he gives voices to the pages of “Dove Collar”, the book of Ibn Hazm from Andalusia. And so the exhibition holds the same name (Dove Collar).. and as the book is one of the most important heritage books that spoke about love, its qualities and meanings, and through this exhibition, Ebrahim Bu Saad did achieve the expressive harmony of the text and the technique of the painting, where in the formulation of his paintings he adopted the legacy of what was written in its firm construction, its configuration, and the flow of the manuscripts, using natural materials in the preparation of the paper and Islamic colors relating to the design and decorative graphics; thus, time factor became clear on the appearance of the painting
that gives a sense of antiquity and history. And so the present Arabic calligraphy remains the master of the situation in this experience, which took a lot of time and effort to reach this level of rapprochement between the word and the image.
The experience of (Love.. The Lasting Permanent), and its continuity that is humanity in its urbanism and morality, on the 11th of January, will fulfill the memory of (Bin Matar House) in Muharraq.

The Manama, Capital of Arab Culture 2012 is celebrating its first themed month, showcasing this collection from the Arab World Institute (Paris) in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture, Bahrain.
What had been the essence of European Art in the modernist period- art making concerned primarily with qualities of colour, shape, and line applied systematically or expressively, and marked over time by an increasing concern with flatness and a declining interest in subject matter, the refusal of the realistic illusion, and the tendency to obscure understanding- was in essence appropriated by the early contemporary Arabic masters.
Therefore the works highlighted in this exhibition are presented in themes: The Letter and the Sign, About Abstraction, Mental Landscapes, What Bodies Say, and The Fantastic and the Imaginary. Ultimately, these central ideas complete a dramatic picture of the significance of the first and second generation of contemporary Arab artists.

The art of sculpture or the culture of three-dimension vision is another experience that undermines angels’ sanctuary to humanize art, bring it down to earth. It is the industry of the sense that blends touch and smell.
In sculpture, characters and cultures grows on the faces of the things. And practicing is the act of experiment and discovery, and a plan can drift beyond the first vision or the second or maybe the tenth.
Visitors can connect to such experimental space in the Bahrain International Exhibition of Sculpture, which completes half a decade in "Manama.. the Capital of Arab Culture for 2012”, re-arranging its materials, discovering new spaces, where artists bend down to feel this world and re-insert it in the cultural scene of the year.
At this exhibition, which inaugurates a strange and unique manifestation of art; visitors and connoisseurs of art pass in the paths of the different sculptors who publicly and openly practice their carvings, erasing features and create others before the vision is completed to uniqueness.
The Ministry of Culture is used to organize this exhibition every two years with a very different material from wood, to marble, to clay, and others as long as a Bahraini, Arab or a global creator is present. Only then professionalism expresses itself to say in the silence what can be said or done.

Art is a transformative medium that promotes connectivity and elicits positive change and healthy investigation of various realms. It facilitates discussion, sharing and growth between people and transcends boundaries; art itself does not judge but allows all who engage with it the chance to develop.
It is this reason why Art seems to be a perfectly chosen theme for the first month of this year’s Manama, Capital of Arab Culture. There will be several events related to “Art” occurring this month, starting with the 38th Annual Fine Arts Exhibition, focusing on the Woman. Bahraini artists-young and more mature- were given the chance to create works related to what they believe is the essence of woman in the contemporary social world, or to re-formulate preconceived notions of women. Since 1972 Bahrain has been promoting the empowerment of talent.
This year is no different as a committee has been selected to judge the 38th session headed by artist Shaikh Rashed bin Khalifa Al Khalifa along with Mr. James Koch from the Beyeler Foundation, Mr. Georges Ranunkel, Mr. Geoffroy De Farncony from Modern Art Exhibition in Paris and Mrs. Salwa Al Moqdadi, director of the Culture & Art Program from the Emirates Foundation for Philanthropy. Other exhibitions opening on the same day are: the “5th International Sculpture Symposium” and “The Approach of Reality and the Color of the Dream” organized by the Arab World Institute, Paris and the Ministry of Culture. Later in the month a Jordanian Fine Art Exhibition will take place to mark the end of the celebration of the month of “Art”.
