Hand In Hand: Ben Eine

16 March - 15 April 2015

Tabari Artspace Gallery collaborated with British urban artist, Ben Eine in 2015.

 

Eine is one of the world’s most prolific and exciting urban artists, and collaborated with Tabari Artspace Gallery on the presentation of a brand new body of public art at the Dubai Design District (d3).

 

Eine showed a brand new series of original works each featuring his inimitable, typographical style using spray-paint and hand-cut stencil on canvas. Especially for this exhibition, and in collaboration with Tabari Artspace Gallery, Eine incorporated Arabic influences into this series of canvasses, making them geographically relevant and completely unique.

 

Eine shot to international fame when the British Prime Minister presented one of his works ‘Twenty First Century City’ (below) to President Obama as a gift on his first official visit to the White House. Eine has left his mark worldwide on public walls from New York to Tokyo as well as in museums and galleries from the UK’s renowned Lowry Museum to the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. On his debut in the UAE, Eine comments; “Working in a totally new environment is always exciting and getting to meet and share ideas with a brand new audience is an artist’s dream come true.”
