From regional and international gallery showcases to major monuments scattered throughout the emirate, we bring you our guide on what not to miss at this year’s sixth edition of Abu Dhabi Art.
Catering to collectors, art world professionals, and the general public, the upcoming four-day celebration of art and culture will include showcases from 50 galleries, including the likes of The Third Line, Isabelle van den Eynde, and Ayyam, alongside works from masters Edgar Degas, Anish Kapoor, Damien Hirst, and M.F. Husain. While this year’s Bidaya—the emerging gallery spotlight showcase—will go to New York’s Taymour Grahne Gallery.
A key art talk not to be missed will be the panel discussing the Louvre Abu Dhabi, led by its architect, Jean Nouvel. Meanwhile, performance art will include the interactive program, Hours and Colours, which will be performed during the fair at key moments throughout the day and evening.
Expect to see some outstanding large-scale sculptures by the likes of Ai Weiwei, Mohammed Kazem, and Sahand Hesamiyan at the fair’s grounds as well as throughout the emirate as Abu Dhabi Art continues to grow and exceed itself in scope.
