Thirty artists from all over the world will transform humanitarian tweets by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, into works of art for the second annual Dubai International Art Symposium.
The exhibition, titled Coloured Tweets, will be held at the Rashid Centre for the Disabled next month. The line-up of artists includes Fatma Lootah, a well-known Emirati painter who lives and works in Italy but is constantly contributing to the art scene here; and Salma Al Merri, another Emirati artist, who graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts in Cairo and is a member of the Emirates Fine Arts Society.
