UNESCO<\/a>-Sharjah Prize for Arab Culture at a ceremony at UNESCO on 28 November 2024 in Paris for their contributions to promoting the arts and Arab culture, and supporting their local communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe UNESCO-Sharjah Prize for Arab Culture recognizes recipients\u2019 artistic achievements celebrating Arab art and culture globally. Core to UNESCO\u2019s anti-racism, anti-discrimination and intercultural dialogue agenda, the Prize promotes peace and dialogue to foster mutual understanding and celebrate diversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aya Tarek\u00a0is an internationally renowned Egyptian artist. As a painter and multidisciplinary artist, she boasts a diverse portfolio of art projects, feature films and collaborations that have garnered acclaim in major cities such as S\u00e3o Paulo and Frankfurt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With experimentation being at the forefront of Aya\u2019s artistic endeavors, she explores innovative mediums such as virtual reality and new forms of studio painting, revisiting her classical training roots and pushing herself in unexplored directions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aya introduces the idea of art as a field of experimentation, opening several possibilities for reconceptualizing contemporary Arab culture. Her aesthetic interventions in the urban space should also be mentioned as an example of her social engagement and her creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alidji Alvin Tour\u00e9\u00a0from Mali is the first African laureate to receive the UNESCO-Sharjah Prize for Arab Culture. While his early works are praised for their ability to capture the essence of the city and its culture, his cinematic journey began with documentary projects highlighting Timbuktu’s Arab heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2021, Alvin founded the International Film Festival of Timbuktu for local and international filmmakers to share their films and promote intercultural dialogue. This festival has become a landmark in the cinematic landscape of Sahel, attracting talents from around the world and strengthening bonds between communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In creating social and cultural spaces that are accessible to all local communities, the work of Alidji Alvin Tour\u00e9 promotes collaborative artistic initiatives in contexts of conflict and violence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
