CIRS Book Explores Art & Cultural Production in the Gulf

CIRS recently published a new book titled Art and Cultural Production in the Gulf Cooperation Council, which offers a comprehensive and multi-disciplinary study about these evolving fields. The book highlights issues of importance to Gulf societies, including cultural appropriation, identity formation, the emerging museology, aesthetics of censorship and circumvention, the question of authenticity, contemporary art and engagements with migrant labor communities, as well as reflections on the phenomenon of public art in the Gulf.
