Efiɛ Gallery last night launched not only their new permanent Dubai gallery space but also a whole new cultural district – the Al Khayat Art Avenue – the first major expansion of the Al Quoz Creative Zone.
The gallery opened with a major solo exhibition, titled Shard Song, of works from renowned contemporary artist, El Anatsui. Curated by Mae-Ling Lokko, the exhibition presented a series of new wooden sculptures that recall Anatsui’s earlier practice in this medium and its continued evolution, complimented by a range of signature bottle cap works.
