Emirates Business

With less than a month to go, World Art Dubai 2016 is preparing to present a plethora of multinational artists to showcase their individual work and to connect them with art lovers from all kinds of cultural and social backgrounds.
The four-day event, taking place at the Dubai World Trade Centre from April 6-9, will bring in artists from all walks of life each with their own unique story and approach to contemporary art, as part of the show’s commitment to supporting young and emerging artists as well as those more established in the market.
The Middle East is among the most dynamic regions for the sale of contemporary art with the UAE ranking among the top 50 marketplaces and generating annual revenues exceeding AED13 million.
From Australia to Japan, Germany to France and India to Singapore, World Art Dubai lives up to its name by providing a combination of international artists, Emiratis and those from around the Middle East, the opportunity to present their work to Dubai’s cosmopolitan public. Art work available throughout the fair will range from US$100 to US$10,000. Local artist, SuziFadelNassif, participating in the show for the second consecutive year said: “World Art Dubai is an event that motivates, encourages and offers a big opportunity to regional and global artists to share their art, culture and experience with a big audience.
“The focus is not only on certain galleries but about discovering new and hidden talents as it allows individual artists to participate and showcase their masterpieces to collectors, curators, gallerists and more.”
Oman-based artist, Anna Dudchenko, who is presenting her new collection of pencil drawings based on famous literature characters, also believes that World Art Dubai is of particular significance to solo artists attempting to break into the scene.
