Shaikh Nahyan Bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, Minister of Culture, Youth and Community Development along with Saeed Abdul Jalil Al Fahim, Chairman of Mubarak and Brothers Investment and owners of Deerfields Mall officially launched the first edition of ‘Deerfields Art Exhibition’, at Deerfields Mall. 

The exhibition is a month long showcase, from April 27 to May 27, 2015, of artists within the UAE. During this period, over 40 talented upcoming and established artists will be able to showcase their work on level four of the mall.  

Mohammed Al Haj, Chief Executive Officer, Mubarak and Brothers Investment and owners of Deerfields Mall said: “In addition to the visibility for the artists, we believe such events enrich the lives of our neighbouring communities as well as our visitors, who are a key driving force for us." 

Deerfields Mall has organised this initiative at no cost to the artists and at the end of the exhibition, artists will retain 100 per cent share of their sales. The artists showcasing at Deerfields Art Exhibition are residents of UAE, representing various countries around the world including UAE, Syria, Egypt, Iran, India, Pakistan, United States, United Kingdom and many more. The artists were handpicked by a special Art Committee set up by Deerfields Mall.
