"Whispers of the Past" Sotheby's, Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Literature

Aisha Alabbar Gallery is pleased to announce its upcoming exhibition "Whispers of the Past", presented in collaboration with Sotheby’s Middle East. The exhibition will run from September 11 to November 14, 2025, at Sotheby’s gallery space in DIFC, and will feature works by leading contemporary artists Dr. Najat Makki, Khalid Al Banna, Sara Al Haddad, Sara Aref Ahli, and Samar Hejazi. Whispers of the Past brings together a multi-generational group of artists whose practices engage with the themes of memory, identity, and the cultural residues that shape our present. Spanning painting, sculpture, textile, and glass installation, the exhibition presents a quiet but powerful meditation on how histories, both personal and collective, are carried through materials, gestures, and forms.“We’re excited to partner with Sotheby’s Middle East to present this timely exhibition,” says Shilan Samaei, Director of Aisha Alabbar Gallery. “Each artist offers a unique visual language to consider how memory is held — whether in the body, in the land, or through artistic process itself.” This exhibition marks a significant collaboration between a locally rooted contemporary art gallery and an international platform, offering a moment of intergenerational and crossdisciplinary dialogue at the heart of Dubai’s art ecosystem.
