The Double Tap 4 launch will be held at Malja Bahrain on November 7, at 7pm, featuring imagery collected from artists via Instagram. The brief was simple: express your immediate reaction to the statement ‘Here and Now’. Artists of all ages, backgrounds and nationalities were invited to post images on Instagram of as many works as they wanted in any medium they desired, simply ensuring that they include the hashtag #malja_hereandnow and a brief description of their work. The resulting works communicate emotions, current sentiments, common grounds, unity despite diversity and the immediacy of social media in connecting artists worldwide. Shared thoughts, sentiments and themes arise that, regardless of borders, nationality or culture, pose similar philosophical questions. Visit http://malja.redbull.com/event/ doubletap4. When?
