Artist Day with a number of Emirati artists.

About

‚Portrait of a Nation‘ offers a glimpse into the creative practices of 50 contemporary artists from the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The visitors are invited to explore the country through the individual perspectives of the participating artists who call it home. The exhibition is divided into seven themed rooms: Nation & Unity, Geography & Nature, Architecture & Urbanism, Portraiture & Identity, Religion & Spirituality, Language & Calligraphy, and Tradition & Heritage. 

The exhibition of contemporary Emirati art features works from the collection of the Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Foundation (ADMAF). Founded in 1996, it is among the oldest, non-profit cultural organisations in the Arabian Gulf and organiser of the Abu Dhabi Festival.
