Urban Artists event by Brownbook at Tashkeel
Published in The underground arts scene in Dubai just got hipper! Last Wednesday, Dubai-based arts and culture magazine Brownbook, hosted an event titled Urban Artists at Tashkeel gallery in Nad Al Sheba, showcasing the works of emerging talent from the region, who explore a new dimension of art, its underlying message and most importantly the identity of the artist themselves. The most remarkable thing about the exhibition is that even though the artworks have a very obvious contemporary character, the soul remains Middle Eastern.
Here’re some snapshots of the event:
