Despite a difficult social and political climate, art from the Middle East and Northern Africa is spreading beyond its borders.
Powerfully creative, the artists entice viewers by intertwining tradition and modernity. Political messages or decorative art, the works are flooding into the international art market. The opening of auction houses in Dubai and Doha as well as the establishment of new contemporary art fairs such as Islamic Art Now demonstrates Islamic art's potential on the market.
