RADIO

This year’s Art Dubai Radio was programmed by Campus Art Dubai Core’s
class of 2014-15. UAE-based artists, writers, researchers, curators and
architects worked with the Core class themes of slowness and the
construction of heritage, set by lead tutors Uzma Z. Rizvi and Murtaza Vali;
each participant contributed to the Radio programme through a range of
interviews, readings, mixtapes, performances, and unique sound works.
Listen to the radio programmes as podcasts here.
Campus Art Dubai is held in partnership with the Dubai Culture & Arts Authority and is supported by Dubai Design District (d3).
