By Pablo del Val, Art Dubai’s Artistic Director
Every year, we collaborate with independent curators across specific sections of the fair, with the aim of pushing the boundaries of contemporary artistic creation and helping to redefine art-historical concepts through a present-day lens.
Art from the Global South is at the heart of Art Dubai, and we aim to showcase this underrepresented geographical area, and to echo the DNA of our rapidly changing home city, Dubai. As a platform dedicated to work from across this wide area, we have a unique vantage point from which to present, question and redefine what constitutes “Global South”, and to provide artists and galleries with a platform to interrogate this very concept and how it continues to evolve.
As such, we are pleased to announce the curators for our 17th edition, which will take place from 1 to 3 March 2024 (with preview days on 28 and 29 February).
