Edge of Arabia

Christie's Dubai Auction

Edge of Arabia sold by auction six works at Christie's Dubai sale of Modern and Contemporary Arab, Iranian and Turkish Art on 19th April 2011. The sale was a fundraiser to enable the expansion of Edge of Arabia's education programme and art workshops in Saudi Arabian schools and universities. The works shattered all records, selling for just over $1 million, against a pre-sale estimate of around $135,000. The proceeds will go toward nurturing a new generation of artists and curators in Saudi Arabia.
