Abu Dhabi Art 2010
This November, Abu Dhabi Art 2010 will expand on last year’s programme, while following the concept inaugurated in 2009. The platform will have at its core the art fair with the main show as well as “Signature”, a section dedicated to innovative and challenging contemporary works by emerging international artists in a one person show, and “Beyond”, a selection of outdoor installations.
Around the main show, Abu Dhabi Art will present a series of exhibitions, public programmes including workshops, panels, lectures involving leading artists and figures from the international art world and the region, as well as book launches, film screenings and performances. Abu Dhabi Art 2010 will expand “Art, Talks and Sensations” to a three day event, integrating some of the main show artists within the daily programme.
Similar to last year, Abu Dhabi Art will continue to develop the design platform. This part will involve workshops within the Design Studio, a space in which the audience can actively participate in the creation process, meet international designers such as the Campana Brothers and representatives from the Khatt Foundation and Studio Formafantasma, and engage in panel discussions and talks.
Abu Dhabi Art is an innovative new platform for modern and contemporary art. Bringing together an exclusive selection of high-level art galleries and innovative emerging galleries from the four corners of the world within an ancient and modern crossroads of culture and trade, Abu Dhabi Art is a new-model curated art fair, which reflects the dramatically changing geography of today´s art world.
Organised exclusively by TDIC (Tourism Development & Investment Company) and ADACH (Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture & Heritage), Abu Dhabi Art 2010 will be presented under the patronage of His Highness General Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces.
Abu Dhabi Art 2010 will be open to the public from Thursday 4th November to Sunday 7th November from 3-10pm daily.
Opening reception and preview takes place on 3rd November (by invitation only).
The art fair is located in the ballroom and on the terrace of Emirates Palace, Abu Dhabi.
