It serves as the primary platform for artists in the region and has been a catalyst for the growth and prosperity of the local art scene on the international stage. Based in Dubai, Canvas sets the benchmark for high-quality in-depth features and is at the forefront of art education and cultural conversations with contributions from leading figures in the art world.
