FA Gallery - ARTSHARKS ARTHouse









Starts Sunday, March 27th at 7:00PM - April 3rd at 10:00PM

'A Launching of Art' Exhibition at FA Gallery, Gulf Road, Sharq Area, next to Al Amiri Hospital.
ARTSHARKS aims to 'Bridge the Art Gap' by providing a network and exchange where members are exposed to art from all over the world. Our mission is to introduce art to people's lives; and we travel the world in search of talented undiscovered artists and provide them with the necessary exposure to support themselves through their art.

ARTSHARKS aims to dispel the myth that to ‘make it’ one has to know the right people or have the right exposure, and that art is only meant for an elite few. In addition to representing artists and their work, the ARTHouse periodically commissions artists to execute ideas with ARTSHARKS founder Manayer AlSharekh as the Creative Director. The ARTHouse also works with clients and artists to produce unique, custom commissioned art based on clients’ needs.

There is a great deal of talent in our world today that too often goes to waste because of factors out of people’s control. There’s no need for in-depth knowledge about Art, just a passion for creativity. Reaching out to both art enthusiast as well as people who feel that they “cannot be part of that world because they know nothing about Art”, we established the ARTSHARKS Blog ( http://blog.artsharks.net/ ). The ARTSHARKS Blog is the product of volunteer contributing writers who are passionate about art and creativity, and want to play a role in ARTSHARKS quest to 'Bridge the Art Gap' by incorporating a creative piece of artwork (film, photo, painting, etc) into everyday life.

This is the first exhibition hosted by The ARTSHARKS ARTHouse to showcase works from 12 of its contemporary Arab artists.
