Saadiyat Island Cultural District Exhibition

We visited the Saadiyat Island Cultural District Exhibition, which was held at the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi on 7 Jan 2008. It was an exhibition detailing the Cultural District masterplan for Saadiyat Island opened as part of ongoing plans for a new museum to be built in the capital of the United Arab Emirates, the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi Museum. The Cultural District will include a square-mile ensemble of four museums, a five-stage performing arts center, and a biennial park with pavilions for exhibitions and programs, created in collaboration with some of the world’s most prominent art institutions and designed by some of the world’s most renowned architects.
