Dates, timings and all the information you need about the ongoing Green Art Expo 2024
Since 2010, Green Abu Dhabi has moved to address environmental concerns.
Now in its third installment, Suhail Jashanmal, an artist and producer, has formed a coalition in 2010 and 2013, focusing on mangrove health and initiating a pilot program with the government and private sector.
Aligned with the UAE government’s COP 28 focus in 2023, Green Art Expo 2024 aims to emphasise recycling as a crucial challenge. The event aims to raise awareness of individual waste footprints to simplify recycling efforts.
Generations – An Art Exhibit about our contrasting perspectives on Sustainable Development is curated with contributions from eleven artists of diverse backgrounds, including two Emirati, one Omani, three Indian, one Austrian, one American, and one British artist.
Through the exhibition, visitors can explore the many different perspectives on the UAE’s growth and sustainability.
Inspired by H.H. Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s quote, “He who does not know his Past cannot make the best of his Present and Future, for it is from the Past that we learn”, this curated exhibition encourages public action.
Funds generated through merchandise sales and art purchases will support a one-year pilot recycling program in partnership with universities. Community engagement, as witnessed in Green Abu Dhabi 1 and 2, is crucial for the success of Green Art Expo 2024.
Green Art Expo 2024 builds upon the success of Green Abu Dhabi I and II. As both artist and curator/producer for the exhibition, Suhail Jashanmal is supported by the Indian Embassy of Abu Dhabi and Manarat Al Saadiyat, a creation of the Department of Culture and Tourism of Abu Dhabi.
