الأيام تستمر | The Days Go On
20 Years of Ayyam Gallery
Ayyam Gallery presents الأيام تستمر | The Days Go On, an exhibition celebrating the gallery's twentieth year, on view from 16 November 2026 to 1 January 2027. The anniversary exhibition honours a journey defined by continuity, resilience and artistic exchange. Like the gallery's programme itself, it is conceived as a visceral experience — a story that has withstood the test of time. Working alongside co-curators Safwan Dahoul and Ali Kaaf, director Maya Samawi brings together works by the artists who have shaped Ayyam over the past two decades. Each curator represents a continuous artistic timeline in which past and present complete one another and remain inseparably connected. The exhibition is accompanied by an archive that traces this history as fully as possible — not merely the story of a gallery, but of the artists, people, places, relationships and circumstances that have formed it. Ayyam's twenty years are not simply a measure of time; they constitute a living history that continues to unfold. Participating artists include Youssef Abdelke, Safwan Dahoul, Mounzer Kamnakache, Fadi Yazigi, Abdullah Murad, Assad Arabi, Nassouh Zaghlouleh, Mouneer Al Shaarani, Walid El Masri, Kais Salman, Nihad Al Turk, Mouteea Murad, Mohannad Orabi, Omran Younes, Abdul Karim Majdal Al-Beik, Ammar Al-Beik, Asma Fayoumi, Samia Halaby, Tammam Azzam, Leila Nseir, Moustafa Fathi, Othman Moussa, Oussama Diab, Khaled Takreti, Thaier Helal, Nadim Karam, Rima Salamoun, Elias Izoli, Sadik Kwaish Alfraji, Mohamad Badr, Lara Zankoul, Lara Attallah, Ammar Abd Rabbo, Farzad Kohan Mousawi, Afshin Pirhashemi, Faisal Samra, Abdulnasser Gharem, Fathallah Zamroud, Shurooq Amin, Mohammad Bozorgi, Sama Alshaibi, Noor Bahjat, Rula Halawani, Khaled Jarrar, Rashed Al Shashai, Roshanak Aminelahi, Abdalla Al Omari, Rashid Al Khalifa, Muatasim Alkubaisy, Khaled Akil, Athar Jaber and Ali Kaaf.
