Riyadh Art

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia’s capital city, has launched Riyadh Art, a public art initiative of unprecedented scale. Comprised of more than 1,000 public art installations across ten programs, plus one annual light and art festival and a sculpture symposium, Riyadh Art is bringing art to residential neighborhoods, gardens and parks, public squares and areas, creating one of the world’s most livable, environmentally friendly and sustainable cities. With a young and rapidly growing population of 7+ million residents, Riyadh is transforming into a creative canvas—a gallery without walls—to enrich lives, ignite creative expression and kindle the creative economy.
