- Summary:
- The Louvre Abu Dhabi's exciting exhibition programme explores the enduring dialogue between Eastern and Western artistic expression. 'Abstraction and Calligraphy' brings together a rich array of works, from 10th-century ceramics from Samarkand to paintings and drawings by Kandinsky, Matisse, Miró, Twombly, and other modern masters. The ways in which these artists respond to Eastern calligraphic traditions enriches our understanding of the dynamic between modern art in the West and long-established forms from Asia and the Near East. In collaboration with Centre Pompidou, Paris. Exhibition: Louvre Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (15.02.2021 to 12.06.2021).
