Hassan Hajjaj presents La Salle de Gym des Femmes Arab (The Arab Women's Gym) in the Aga Khan Park at Aga Khan Museum, ON, Canada, curated by Marianne Fenton.
La Salle de Gym des Femmes Arab (The Arab Women’s Gym), a series by Hajjaj that places women at the centre of the often male-dominated world of sports. Featuring women actively participating in sports like soccer, boxing, and surfing, Hajjaj’s stunning images challenge stereotypes and invite viewers to reconsider their assumptions. His work celebrates the multi-layered complexity of Muslim identity and emphasizes our shared humanity.
The solo presentation is on view from 13 September 2025 through 31 May 2026.
