Bahrain’s exhibition

We are pleased to announce that the Kingdom of Bahrain will be the guest of honor of our next edition, hosting a pavilion dedicated mainly to contemporary art but also to the heritage of this Gulf country. The agreement signed on the occasion of the inauguration of the ArtBAB fair, Art Bahrain Across Borders, between Mathias Ary Jan, President of SNA and Kaneka Subberwal, ArtBAB fair director, will present under the nave of the Grand Palais more than a hundred works by Bahraini artists. This pavilion will be designed and organized by Kaneka Subberwal and Tasneem Al Shuroughi, director of the Art Select program, in collaboration with a French curatorial team. Artifacts and collectibles from The Bahrain Room, a new showcase of Bahraini arts and crafts, will also be featured in this pavilion.

Why does La Biennale Paris support ALIPH?

Crimes against cultural heritage, particularly in the Middle East and the Sahel, are unacceptable. They put our common heritage at risk. La Biennale Paris wishes to support ALIPH’s efforts to protect, rebuild and restore this heritage, and hence contribute to reconciliation and peace.
