Synopsis

"Edge of Arabia" is the first book to explore the extraordinary contemporary arts culture of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This book centres around the Edge of Arabia project, which has shed new light on a group of pioneering and relatively unknown artists practicing at the center of the Islamic world. Through the voices of curators, collectors, patrons and the artists themselves, this book illustrates the birth of a contemporary art scene in one of the world's most misunderstood countries. Showing the work of 12 pioneering artists and milestone Edge of Arabia exhibitions in London, Venice, Berlin, Istanbul and Dubai, this book offers an inspiring window into the contemporary life of a Kingdom in transition. "Edge of Arabia" will continue to showcase Saudi artists in Europe, the Middle East and across the United States over the next two years.
