Five new platforms will showcase emerging local talent.
UAE NOW, a new segment at Art Dubai, is designed to explore the country’s emerging artist-run platforms by putting the spotlight on youth and independent, home-grown subcultures.

The platforms invited to participate and showcase their respective initiatives in the way of their choosing are:
“Visitors will be able to see the real story of the nation’s creative atmosphere, one that is unhindered by commercial obligation, reliant on collaboration and establishing networks in order to create a voice that can elevate itself internationally,” said Al Sayegh, the independent curator of UAE NOW.
