An integrated digital and physical programme of exhibitions to inspire any and all to engage with modern and contemporary art. Through the use of technology we seek to break down the barriers between physical and digital art, bring the online exhibition experience much closer to reality and to take our real life exhibitions beyond the “white cube” gallery space.

KID: A Group Exhibition
Location: Dubai, UAE
From Lichtenstein appropriating comic-book style, so allowing him to sit across the high art/low art divide and Warhol using the power of iconic characters such as Mickey Mouse to more easily speak to the masses in his Myths series, the use of comic book and cartoon imagery has only gathered pace amongst contemporary artists in the subsequent decades. From the critique of the codified, narrow role of women locked behind superhero-adorned masks in Sandra Chevrier’s Cages series, to the satirical contrasting juxtapositions of Paco Pomet whose cartoon characters appear engaged in, impacted by or presiding over scenes of real human conflict, the exhibition explores how leading artists are using cartoon and comic figures, or even creating new characters, for their own devices.

BENEATH: A Solo Exhibition By Nick Veasey
Dates: 8th July – 7th August
Location: Dubai, UAE
In a world obsessed with “image”, Nick Veasey’s work breaks through the surface and shows us what’s beneath; behind the mask of the superhero, hidden under the skin of high-fashion and secreted by sleek supercar facades. From lethal levels of radiation emerges the beautiful architecture of life itself and ghostly, gentle images of the framework that makes up the icons of our modern society. His works allow us to journey into a world otherwise hidden and unseen.
