Artspace Gallery was founded in 2003. The Gallery is located on the 9th floor of The Fairmont Hotel, Dubai. Art Space is dedicated to promotion of Contemprary Middle Eastern Art and Artists. The gallery caters to the taste and trends of the sophisticated Dubai art market and the gallery's discerning worldwide collector base. The gallery's diverse clientele includes private collectors, art consultants, corporate art consultants, architects, interior designers as well as business-people, government, diplomatic and social VIPs. Artspace gallery offers the client an extraordinary opportunity to acquire and taste some of the most contemporary Middle Eastern Art. Every three weeks, artist's artworks are exhibited, ranging from to paintings to sculpture. Artspace is a key player in the contemporary art field and has begun to branch out regionally. Local partnerships with highly acclaimed art houses and auction establishments have helped push Artspace into the forefront of the market. In addition to the gallery situated in The Fairmont Hotel, a new Artspace gallery will be opening within the next few months, located in DIFC's ground level Building 3,underneath the Capital Club. Like most aspects of this city, the art scene is booming and Artspace singles itself out from other competitors by offering distinctive and unrivaled services to its clients and artists. The demand for Middle Eastern Contemporary Arts is influenced not only by overall economic conditions, but also by changing trends in the art market as to which kinds of property and the works of which artists are most sought after and by the collecting preferences of individual collectors, all of which can be unpredictable, particularly in a new market. Maliha AL-Tabari , Artspace's Gallery Director, has operated the gallery for five years upon her return from the U.S.A. after completing her B.F.A as well as a minor in Art History at Otis College of Art and Design, California and Ringling School of Art and Design, Florida. Maliha, who is a painter/sculptor herself says; "Ever since I returned to Dubai, I have noticed the lack of contemporary art and felt the need to promote modern Middle Eastern art in the country". Backed up by family as well as professional investors and collectors, all are extremely passionate about Art and focus on the long term success of the art business . Managed by qualified personnel, all contain well-established backgrounds in the field of Arts and all offer consultation.
