'Cross Scripts' at Lawrie Shabibi, Dubai, United Arab Emirates on 6 Jun–31 Jul 2026

Lawrie Shabibi gallery in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, presents 'Cross Scripts', an exhibition running from 6 June to 31 July 2026. The show is organized by Ocula and explores themes of script, text, and calligraphy in contemporary art.

This exhibition matters because it highlights the intersection of language and visual art in a region known for its rich calligraphic traditions, offering a platform for artists working with script-based practices. It also underscores Dubai's growing role as a hub for contemporary art in the Middle East.
