Abu Dhabi Art 2013 Poised To Enthrall Saadiyat Cultural District
The fifth edition of Abu Dhabi Art 2013 scheduled to be held this November in Saadiyat Culture District will bring together world’s top galleries, artists, notable cultural icons, collectors and visitors from across the globe.
Much more than an art fair, Abu Dhabi Art is a unique platform for modern and contemporary art and design as well as a carefully curated public programme. The international platform is aimed at creating awareness, education and continuation of artistic and cultural interest through the selected exhibited galleries, vast showcased works and talking platforms by art world academics, connoisseurs, patrons and leading and emerging artists from all fields of the visual arts.
The fourth edition of Abu Dhabi Art firmly established Saadiyat Island and Abu Dhabi’s legacy as the cultural destination of the future. An unprecedented level of interest to Abu Dhabi’s museum projects reached an all-time high with an audience of over 1,000 attended the panel discussion featuring the world’s top three architects - Frank Gehry, Jean Nouvel and Lord Norman Foster.
The presence and participation of such members from the art world only confirmed the development and commitment to culture in Abu Dhabi.
Organised by Abu Dhabi Tourism & Culture Authority, the Abu Dhabi Art is held in the Saadiyat Cultural District (currently home to the Manarat Al Saadiyat exhibition center and UAE Pavilion), and the future home to the Louvre Abu Dhabi, Zayed National Museum and the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi.
