About this Event
RSVP HERE:
The talk explores the dramatic changes that happened after the 2006 announcement of plans for a Louvre and a Guggenheim museum in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. In the decade between the museums' announcement and the opening of the Louvre Abu Dhabi in 2017, the ways artists worked changed as did the ways curators promoted their work, and the forms of arts organizations themselves shifted – taken together, the UAE case offers insight into how museum and artistic practice is shifting in the 21st century.
