A new generation of artists comes together to explore the connections that shape our shared world
Art Here 2026 returns to Louvre Abu Dhabi from 11 November 2026 to 28 February 2027, once again spotlighting emerging contemporary artists from across the GCC and India.
Presented in partnership with Richard Mille, this year’s exhibition is curated by Kamini Sawhney, founding director of Bengaluru’s Museum of Art and Photography (MAP).
The 2026 theme, Confluences, explores how histories, migration and cultural exchange across the Indian Ocean continue to shape identities and communities today.
Shortlisted artists will present new works that reflect these evolving connections through diverse contemporary perspectives.
The exhibition will also culminate in the announcement of the prestigious Richard Mille Art Prize winner, recognising one standout artistic voice from this year’s edition.
With thought-provoking installations and fresh regional talent, Art Here 2026 continues to cement Louvre Abu Dhabi as one of the UAE’s leading destinations for contemporary art.
