The selection of art has been made by Dr Karin von Roques, Curator for the Art Museum Bonn and a specialist in Islamic and contemporary Arab art.
Dr Von Roques explained: “We have brought together some of the best and most interesting contemporary Arab art – work that will interest enthusiasts of traditional Islamic art as well as modernists. We look forward to welcoming all locally-based art-lovers.”
Dolphin Energy’s CEO, Ahmed Ali Al Sayegh, added: “Dolphin Energy has sponsored this thought-provoking exhibition as part of its contribution to the flourishing cultural scene in Abu Dhabi. I congratulate ADMAF on staging the event, and I believe visitors will be pleasantly surprised at what they will see.”
Dolphin Energy Limited
Dolphin Energy Limited was created to develop substantial energy projects throughout the GCC. Its objective is to create long-term economic wealth and new business opportunities for GCC citizens, far into the future. Dolphin Energy’s major strategic initiative, the Dolphin Project, involves the production and processing of natural gas from Qatar’s North Field, and transportation of the dry gas by sub-sea pipeline across joint UAE-Qatari waters to the UAE, beginning in 2006.
Dolphin Energy’s first initiative, the Al Ain to Fujairah Pipeline, came on stream in January 2004.The pipeline supplies the Fujairah Water and Power Plant on the UAE’s East Coast – initially with natural gas from Oman, and subsequently with Dolphin gas from Qatar. In May 2005, Dolphin began to supply natural gas to the UAE Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah. The gas is being delivered via a tie-in near Qidfa between Dolphin’s Al Ain - Fujairah pipeline and the existing Emarat gas pipeline network.
Dolphin Energy is owned 51 percent by Mubadala Development Company, on behalf of the Government of Abu Dhabi – and 24.5 percent each by Total of France and Occidental Petroleum of the USA.
