Dubai plans to add arts district
A message from Dr. Karolos F. Duxen to all members of Global Art Professionals on Dubai Business 'n Investor's Club!
Mishaal al-Gergawi, projects and events department head at the Dubai Culture and Arts Authority (DCAA) has told Reuters that the agency plans to set up an area of galleries and affordable housing for artists, and is developing a legislation to allow foreign artists residency rights if they have only part-time or non-profit work, which is currently not possible. DCAA also plans to build a Kunsthal museum with no permanent collection within the next 24 to 30 months to house temporary exhibits from around the world, he said. Gergawi added that agreements have been signed with the Dresden, Munich and Berlin state museums in Germany to provide exhibits.
