March 17-19
Showcasing paintings, sculpture, photography, works on paper and video installations from a host of first-timers as well as returning galleries, the fifth edition of Art Dubai features exciting work from emerging artists and museum-quality masterworks.
The fair features over 300 artists, along with 81 participating galleries, with more than a dozen significant, curatorially focused galleries exhibiting in the Middle East for the first time; an increased number of single-artist gallery shows, allowing viewers to delve into an artist’s practice in depth; as well as the strongest presence of galleries from Turkey and South Asia to date.
A highlight of this year’s programming is Global Art Forum-5, a four-day series of discussions curated by a committee chaired by Shumon Basar, which explores how a changed world has changed audiences for contemporary art, how expectations have affected artists and their work, and how art and fashion collide.
Tickets to Art Dubai are available at the door for Dh50 and entry for children 12 and under are free.
