Canvas delves into Modern Madness – the who’s who of modern and contemporary art exhibition at the Fondation Louis Vuitton. Next we visit the 56th Venice Biennale to see what’s on show from the Middle East and interview our seventh group of young collectors from the regional art scene. We also review the 12th edition of the Sharjah Biennial, Shirin Neshat’s major new commmission for Yarat’s permanent space in Baku, Wael Shawky’s films and Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian’s first museum retrospective in the USA. At just two years old, Gypsum gallery in Egypt is set on becoming a game-changer in the country and last but not least we profile artists Lamia Joreige, Nazgol Ansarinia and Yazid Oulab.
