Gallery Information
AB Gallery has spaces in both Zurich and Lucerne. The gallery’s main focus has for some time been the exchange between Europe and the Arab world. Due to its lack of exposure in the international contemporary art arena, art from the Arab world is often unjustly met with prejudice. The dynamic nature of artistic practice in the area still goes largely unnoticed by the Western art community. The AB Gallery was established as an initiative that strives to trace and discover the highlights in the Middle Eastern art community, to bring outstanding Arab artists to the attention of the international art market. Both the Lucerne and Zurich gallery programmes include a variety of artistic positions ranging from traditional painting to performance art. Additionally, in 2010 AB Gallery Zurich opened AB Projects which constitutes a platform for young innovative art from the Arab world.
