Expect it to be packed with more than 200 works by over 150 artists representing 100 nationalities. Now, DIFC is all business usually, but during these nights, the district completely flips the script. According to DIFC’s Instagram post, it becomes a playground for creativity, live art, immersive light shows, and more. Visitors can witness a perfect blend of culture and conversation at this Dubai destination. This edition is a celebration of art, innovation, and imagination.
Lights, Motion, And Magic
If you love art that’s in motion, you’re here for a full-on experience. There are massive installations curated by Astrid Lesuisse in collaboration with Elevision and kanvas. Expect to see a living canvas of light and motion. Then there’s Phoenix Art Group, which has around 20 artists who will paint live throughout the event. Don’t miss out on Nour Bazarbashi, who’ll be working her magic at the DIFC Art Night.
Not just classic installations, there’s digital art present as well. The UAE premiere of NOWADEUS by Tim Christie & The Grid will deliver sound, story, and visuals.
