Our new initiative, Dubai Collection Nights, underscores Dubai Collection’s mission to build a community of committed patrons of the arts and ignite creativity across the city.\u00a0 It is created to offer a new platform for local audiences to explore the stories in the collection and connect our communities of artists, collectors, and art professionals.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first edition will feature panel discussions on institution building and collecting by influential art professionals, insight into the A.R.M. Holding corporate collection – demonstrating how corporates are becoming an integral part of Dubai’s creative landscape, film screenings, rare opportunities to visit the private collections of our patrons, and visits to the studios of renowned UAE-based artists.<\/p>\n

Benedetta Ghione, Executive Director of Art Dubai<\/strong>, said: \u201cDubai Collection Nights is the first dedicated initiative that will bring together the wider Dubai Collection community in the city for the first time. The line-up of activities is an important opportunity for our local audiences to see the collection and connect with Dubai-based artists and patrons.\u00a0 Talks and debates will bring to the fore the voices of professionals and collectors committed to changing the landscape of institutional collecting, whilst every day during the week-long event there will be an opportunity for the public to see artworks and learn more about the collection. \u201d<\/p>\n
