I would like to look at specifically for works from Morocco and Sudan that are currently on the permanent math collection in Qatar. Remember that the goal of these papers is specifically to reflect on what it means to work directly with these art objects, thinking about how individual artworks connect and diverge from the overall art history that we are studying.Choose two works that are currently on view at Mathaf to focus on from artists from (Sudan and Morocco ). Make sure to choose pieces that you feel are relevant to the overview. Be cognizant of the dates of the work and the dates of the history that we have studied – Palestinian artworks from pre-1967 and post-1967, for example, or Lebanese artworks from prior to the civil war versus in the midst of the civil war need to be treated within their precise contexts. Spend time with the works – the goal is to see these works deeply and focus on the objects themselves. In your paper, I would like you to describe these works and put them into the contexts that we have studied. You are required to cite one assigned reading from each unit (that is, if you choose a work from Sudan and a work from Morocco, you need to cite one reading from the week on Sudan and one reading from the week on Morocco – they are attached below. For each chosen artwork you must include artist, title, date, medium – a photograph of the work is encouraged but not required.The critical questions for you to consider: How does the history and art history that you have learned affect how you read your chosen artworks? How does studying the work affect how you understand this history? Does your chosen artwork fit into this history, or does it diverge from the history that we have studied?Criteria -2-4 pages, reflects on the exhibition in mathaf discussing 2 artworks total by artists from Morocco, Algeria, Lebanon, Sudan and Palestine, the artworks are from separate units, the artworks are currently on view at the museum, cites an assigned reading from each unit, reflects on the artworks in the context of the history/art history that we have studied as reflected in the learning objectives for weeks ten to thirteenTake a look at the overview in order to have an idea as to what is expected.Over view 1-Focus: MoroccoArtists: Farid Belkahia, Mohammed Melehi, Mohamed Issiakhem, Mohammed Khadda, Baya MahieddineLearning objectives:-Understand the colonial experiences of Morocco-Understand the broad history of Morocco, including its dual colonization by France and Spain, the regime of Hassan II, the Years of Lead-Understand the focus of the Casablanca School, its pedagogy, and its relationship to the journal SoufflesPainting 1 -Name: Chaibia Talal (1929 Chtouka – 2004 Casablanca) Mon Village, Chtouka 1990 Acrylic on canvas 190 x 191 cmReading to refer to this painting:Moroccan Trilogy (Selections)Over view 2-Focus: SudanArtists: Ibrahim El Salahi, Kamala Ibrahim Ishag, Amir NourLearning objectives:-Know significant artworks by Ibrahim El Salahi and Kamala Ibrahim Ishaq-Understand broad history of Sudan within the larger contexts of both the Arab world and the African continent-Understand the focus of the Khartoum School Painting 2 -Name : Ibrahim el-Salahi )1930 Omdurman – lives and works in Oxford( Behind the Mask 2 2010 Ink on paper 122 x 154 cm MAT.2010.13.7These paintings are visible in this linkhttps://www.mathaf.org.qa/images/collections/gallery/2021/Mathaf_Collection_Summary2_G8.pdfDont use outside sources
