Louvre Abu Dhabi is a new cultural beacon, bringing different cultures together to shine fresh light on the shared stories of humanity.
A pioneering cultural project
The origins of Louvre Abu Dhabi date back to March 2007. The UAE and France formed an unprecedented partnership for cultural exchange, and the highlight of this would be the establishment of Louvre Abu Dhabi on Saadiyat Island. The partnership would combine the UAE’s bold vision of cultural progression and openness, with France’s expertise in the world of art and museums. It would explore the shared themes that reveal and connect humanity.
The result is Louvre Abu Dhabi. It represents the dynamic nature of the contemporary Arab world while celebrating the region’s vibrant multicultural heritage. Agence France-Muséums – 17 of France’s most renowned cultural institutions – coordinates the loan of artworks to this UAE museum and provides management expertise.
The Louvre Museum is an exceptional manifestation of it. Seated beautifully on Saadiyat Island by the award winning architect, the museum explains the historical times through an array of displays. Resources like the artifacts, objects, statues and paintings re-tell the global creativity from ancient and contemporary periods. The context revolves on four chapters, Archaeology, Medieval, Classical and Modern Age. Travelling back to time, you can find that the artworks are arranged in the chronological order giving you an ease in understanding and exploring the past.
