Doha, Qatar: Qatar Museums has announced its spring 2025 exhibitions programme, which features the third edition of the Tasweer Photo Festival Qatar, a biennial of exhibitions, awards, presentations and workshops that amplify the diverse practices of photographers and photographic communities in Qatar and the West Asia and North Africa (WANA) region.
This year’s theme focuses on the meaning of belonging through six exhibitions on view throughout museums, galleries, and outdoor venues in Doha.
The festival’s anchor exhibition, To Look at the Sea is to Become What One Is, curated by Tasweer’s Artistic Director, Meriem Berrada, will be on view at the Fire Station: Artist in Residence.
The landmark exhibition Latinoamericano | Modern and Contemporary Art from the Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (Malba) and Eduardo F. Costantini Collections will be the first large-scale presentation of Latin American art in the WANA region. On view at the National Museum of Qatar, the exhibition provides an overview of the artistic production of the continent through works by key artists from 1900 until today.
Additional programme highlights include Qatar: Close to my Soul, Art from the Collection of Abdulla bin Ali Al Thani, a survey exhibition of works by Qatari artists from various generations offering multiple artistic styles and trends, and Wafa al-Hamad: Sites of Imagination, the groundbreaking late artist’s first solo museum exhibition, featuring works from the Mathaf Permanent Collection.
Both exhibitions will be on view at Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art.
