The Islamic Arts Biennale will consist of seven unique components (AlBidaya, AlMadar, AlMuqtani, AlMathala, Makkah al-Mukarramah, Al-Madinah al-Munawwarah, and AlMusalla) spread out through different galleries and outdoor spaces, across 100,000 square meters of dedicated exhibition space.
The event is the first and only biennial dedicated to the arts of Islamic civilization.
Awartani is known for drawing inspiration from Islamic art and its intricate language of geometric abstraction to make works that are philosophically deep and rich reflections of Arab culture.
The curators of the second event are Amin Jaffer, Julian Raby, Abdulrahman Azzam and Muhannad Shono.
