The Jerusalem Show, Outside the Gates of Heaven

The Jerusalem Show (‘Ala Abwab Al Janna) borrows its English title from the vivacious and atypical formats of the Saturday Night Live show and the Muppet Show, whereas its Arabic title ‘Ala Abwab Al Janna (Outside the Gates of Heaven) references the sacramental veneration that is bestowed on Jerusalem. A similar ludicrous dichotomy is ostensible to Jerusalem’s inhabitants (including us at Al-Ma’mal Foundation). Read more

Nabil Annani

Lost Horizon

�Lost Horizon�: Nabil Annani presented two sculptures for his contribution to The Jerusalem Show, made of wood, clay and paint, titled "Lost Horizon". The work represented the ancient walls that reveal the tales of history; with its divided geography, cement walls towers, and villages in harmony with their natural surroundings. The sculptures were presented at the Swedish Christian Study Centre, Jaffa Gate.
