This year’s edition of Art Dubai brings together a diverse collection of galleries, showcasing the very best in cutting-edge contemporary, modern and digital art from across the region, and beyond.

Presenting over 100 galleries from more than 50 countries, the line-up showcases the geographic breadth that is core to Art Dubai’s DNA as a place of discovery.

Over 20 galleries are exhibiting at Art Dubai for the first time in 2025, and visitors can look forward to established and emerging artists from the Gulf, Africa and South Asia. As the art market in Dubai continues to mature, there is once again strong representation from Dubai-based galleries, alongside a growing number of Emirati artists.

In keeping with Art Dubai’s commitment to placing untold art histories of the region in conversation with important art movements globally, we are pleased to welcome this year’s distinguished curators; Mirjam Varadinis, for Bawwaba’s highly curated solo presentation of works made in the last year, Magalí Arriola, Nada Shabout, who have set the curatorial framework for Art Dubai Modern looking at influential modern masters, and Gonzalo Herrero Delicado to curate the fourth edition of Art Dubai Digital, expanding its exploration of new media art and technology.
