This is the first exhibition and accompanying book that examines family photographs produced by Emiratis during the second half of the 20th century.
These are snapshots focused not on official events or protocol, by virtue of being
taken by amateurs; they are candid, clicked for private viewing and lasting memories.
The exhibition begins by showing the process through which students collected,
researched, curated and authored a book of photographs. The oldest photograph
found in a home was dated 1958; the most recent one was made in 1999, after which
the students could ‘see’ the world into which world they were born.
