Supporting Artists and Diversity of Artistic Experiences
Through this exhibition, Bilarab Bin Haytham Initiatives seeks to support artists and highlight their works. The goal of this event is to provide access to artistic experiences for various segments of society and create a space for dialogue among artists, architects, and designers, which in turn will strengthen the presence of art in the cultural landscape of the Sultanate of Oman.
Engineer Iyad Al-Rawass, representative of Bilarab Bin Haytham Initiatives, emphasized that holding this exhibition reflects the importance of initiatives in celebrating humanity as the core of creativity. This event provides an artistic space that expands horizons of inspiration and helps articulate the works and creativity of the participants.
Saeed Al-Shanfari, CEO of the Oman Convention and Exhibition Centre, expressed his pleasure in collaborating with Bilarab Bin Haytham Initiatives for this edition of the Muscat Art Exhibition. He pointed to the role of this exhibition in enriching the exhibition experience, highlighting the diversity of the artistic scene, and providing an opportunity for the public to discover diverse artistic and cultural experiences.
This year's exhibition will feature the extensive participation of over 300 artists and will be open to the public for three days from 14:00 to 22:00. Bilarab Bin Haytham Initiatives will have a dedicated pavilion at this exhibition showcasing a collection of selected paintings, each telling a different story that emphasizes that creativity is unique even if its languages and paths differ.
It is worth noting that Bilarab Bin Haytham Initiatives is a leading cultural and social entity focused on Omani individuals.
