We are delighted to be able to attract such a diverse range of artists and galleries from around the world, in part thanks to the important contribution and research of our global gallery repre-sentatives. The presence of so many new galleries at the fair signifies how dynamic the local and regional art market has become over the last 15 years. By working closely with curators, gallery representatives, galleries and artists, we are also ensuring that our gallery presentations offer unparalleled access to art histories and research, ensuring visitors have the opportunity to better understand these wide-ranging global positions.”

Other interesting events of Art Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi Art has just revealed more details around the exhibitions and site-specific works commissioned for the showcase – and we’re in for a treat.

Three artists have been appointed for the Beyond Emerging Artists (BEA) programme: Almaha Jaralla, Samo Shalaby and Latifa Saeed.

Each are currently working on new commissions to be revealed in an exhibition curated by Morad Montazami.

The annual exhibition Gateway, which highlights local and international artists, will be a survey show for Emirati painter Hashel Al Lamki.

Entitled Maqam, after the Al Ain residential neighbourhood where Al Lamki grew up, the exhibition will take you through both his past and current works while examining the interplay between natural landscapes and human intervention.

Dr. Venetia Porter is the curator of this exhibition.

Abu Dhabi Art has also just unveiled this year’s commissioned artists, who will be displaying their work at cultural sites during the fair and for two months after.

This year, Nujoom Al Ghanem and Mohamed Ahmed Ibrahim will have their works on display at Al Jahili Fort and Al Ain Oasis.

Renowned Emirati poet, artist, and multi-award-winning film director, Al Ghanem, commented, “I’m truly honoured to take part in this edition of the fair and I’m looking forward to sharing with its audience the work I’ve been creating since 2020. I spent a lifetime working in solitude under shades of colours and materials without knowing where my work would end up. Without realising it, art has become my magnificent companion and refuge. It has given me another medium of expression which turned out to be the most significant activity of my days.”
