Global Art Forum
19 Mar, 2010
In 2010, the Global Art Forum returns as the Middle East鈥檚 leading platform for cultural debate and discussion, focusing on key issues that bring together the arts scenes of the region with the rest of the world.
Under the banner 鈥楥rucial Moments鈥�, the 2010 Forum explores evolving aspects of contemporary culture including education, mapping modernism, art writing, and patronage. Bringing experts from the art world together with those from the region, speakers will discuss both practical outcomes as well as more theoretical concerns.
As in 2009, the programme will have three days of panel discussions, keynote presentations and roundtable workshops will be held at the Madinat Jumeirah complex each afternoon, followed by evening events at Art Dubai.
