Head Above Water offered a weekly course of seminars running throughout the

9-months of the program. Seminars were divided into four intersecting modules

that dealt with text, image, sound, movement and interdisciplinarity in Seeing,

listening, writing, moving; the category of the artist in Histories of the artist; the

histories, conditions and effects of life and the future under ‘technologies’ were

elaborated in Technologies, life and the future; and Financialization introduced

the move to financial capitalism, the logic of the derivatives markets, the

relationship of art markets to the art sphere, and more. In addition, five Visiting

Professors were invited to offer workshops around their artistic methods and

practices, and to elaborate themes of their choice.

Home Workspace Program (HWP) is an independent arts study program

initiated by Ashkal Alwan in 2011. The program admits artists and other cultural

workers who wish to develop their formal and critical skills in a supportive

environment in Beirut. Organized annually, the HWP curriculum consists of an

opening preface, a series of workshops and seminars, guest lectures, group

critiques, and a range of other activities that are in large part open to the public.

Each year the program is run by a Resident Professor, and invites a Resident

Artist to mentor the HWP fellows. Tuition at HWP is free.
