PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
The Opera Gallery, located at the Dubai International Financial Center, presents a series of paintings by renowned Spanish artist Lita Cabellut. The exposition of Lita Cabellut's solo exhibition, “Memoirs Covered with a Gold Leaf,” includes her best works of art devoted to the female image in a hijab. 30 paintings of the art exhibition, the size of which sometimes reaches 1 m by 1.5 m, reflect the unique vision of the image of a Muslim woman by a Spanish artist. Lita Cabellut used artificially obsolete wood and paper, among the elements of the paintings were shreds of gold foil.
A MASTERPIECE IN THE SAND
The world's largest portrait of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the first president of the UAE and father of the nation, appeared in the Emirate desert. The famous artist Sylvain Tramble created a 12 x 10 m painting of sand and glue. The portrait is clearly visible from a light aircraft. It will be installed on an 80-meter sand dune in the Art Hub art space in Liva, the oasis of Sheikh Zayed. The artist also voiced the idea of creating a new masterpiece on the helipad of the Burj Al Arab hotel. It remains only to wait for new achievements.
