Type Fusion Exhibition Heralds Modern East
An exhibition of Arabic/English Type Fusion, hosted by Zaman and featuring the work of students from the American University of Dubai, opened in Courtyard 69 of Bur Dubai’s Al Bastakiya on February 2nd 2008 – heralding the launch of Modern East. The compositions on display explored the relationship between the English and Arabic languages and combined traditional and contemporary graphic styles, working as symbolic expressions of the interaction between Eastern and Western cultures. Zaman included the works of the exhibition in an exclusive desk top calendar, which was given out to all those who attended as invitations to join the Modern East debate.

A plausible initiative, bringing to the public domain something that is cherished by of us who live in the region. I can think of many people among my friends and acquaintances who think and live in line with the Modern East philosophy. Yet spelling it out and organising it into a proactive movement is when you really can make a difference.
