Launched in the fall of 2022 for creators, researchers, and culture professionals from across the Arab world, the Recanati-Kaplan prize aims to support artistic and intellectual exchange between the United States, France, and the Arab world. The winner receives both a $15,000 cash prize and a two-month exploratory residency to pursue their artistic project in the US city of their choosing.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough this prize, we are proud and honored to support the work of artists and visionary thinkers,\u201d Thomas Kaplan, founder of the Recanati-Kaplan Foundation, said. \u201cBy envisioning new cultural, artistic and intellectual bridges between the Arab world, the United States, and France, these figures and the people they meet are part of a crucial mission for modern society.\u201d<\/p>\n

The competition was judged by Antoine Artiganave, representing the Recanati-Kaplan Foundation; Ga\u00ebtan Bruel, Director, Villa Albertine; Jack Lang, President, Institut du monde arabe; Fr\u00e9d\u00e9rique Mehdi, Director of Cultural Development, Institut du monde arabe; and Mouna Mekouar, freelance curator and art critic.<\/p>\n

The partners of the Prize are thrilled to name Laila Hida as its first winner. Laila Hida is a Franco-Moroccan artist based in Marrakesh, where she founded LE 18, a collective, multidisciplinary space, in 2013. LE 18 organizes exchanges, exhibitions, workshops, and residencies for artists, curators, and researchers around a range of issues, including image and representation, shared resources, and the spoken word, challenging our understanding of mediation and curation.<\/p>\n

In addition, Laila Hida\u2019s work uses private spaces and narratives to explore the place of the individual within a society gripped by change. She investigates projections and frictions of desire, ideas, and concepts in both local and western contexts through curation, publishing, installations, and photography projects.<\/p>\n

Her residency project, \u201cJourney of the Phoenix\u201d, examines how narratives are manufactured around representations of the oasis, and its mythologization in colonial travel literature and 19th-century cinema. After conducting initial research in Morocco and in Nice, she will pursue her Villa Albertine residency this fall in Los Angeles to study the city\u2019s landscape and the history of its imported palm trees. In doing so, she will investigate the way the city has been constructed out of a notion of exoticism and a reproduced, stereotyped narratives.<\/p>\n

\u201cThanks to the support of the Recanati-Kaplan Foundation, we are delighted to welcome Laila Hida among the residents of our 2023 season,\u201d Ga\u00ebtan Bruel added. \u201cHer career and project have struck a chord with Villa Albertine, as we aim to move beyond the United States and France to open up to other geographies, gathering unique voices around shared challenges.\u201d With its partner foundations, Villa Albertine supports residents from across the Arab world and the African continent.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Institut du monde arabe is proud to be involved with the Recanati-Kaplan Prize,\u201d Jack Lang said. \u201cIt recognizes the outstanding work that Laila Hida has been doing in Morocco, and supports an original project to create a genuine dialogue between the Arab world, France, and the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":61721,"menu_order":0,"template":"","app_discipline":[234,218],"app_city_tax":[220],"app_professional_category":[258],"app_professional_content_type":[254],"class_list":["post-61723","app_professional","type-app_professional","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","app_discipline-all-disciplines","app_discipline-visual-arts","app_city_tax-la","app_professional_category-art-design","app_professional_content_type-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nLaila Hida Wins First Recanati-Kaplan Prize - Villa Albertine<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/va\/professionals\/laila-hida-wins-first-recanati-kaplan-prize-0\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Laila Hida Wins First Recanati-Kaplan Prize - Villa Albertine\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"[Read the article in French or in Arabic] Launched in the fall of 2022 for creators, researchers, and culture professionals from across the Arab world, the Recanati-Kaplan prize aims to support artistic and intellectual exchange between the United States, France, and the Arab world.
