About

Louvre Abu Dhabi was founded in March of 2007. The foundation of Louvre Abu Dhabi on Saadiyat Island is the pinnacle of the UAE and France's historic collaboration for cultural exchange. Through the agreement, France's museum and art industry know-how would be combined with the UAE's audacious ideal of cultural advancement and openness. It would examine the universal themes that make humans visible and interconnected.

The outcome is Abu Dhabi's Louvre. It celebrates the rich multicultural legacy of the area while illustrating the dynamic character of the modern Arab world. The UAE museum's artwork loan is arranged and managed by Agence France-Muséums, a consortium of 17 of France's most esteemed cultural establishments.

Louvre Abu Dhabi, an innovative and ambitious project, is intended to be a place of discovery, exchange and education. It will also play an important social role in the United Arab Emirates. In this respect, it can be seen as a product of the 18th-century Enlightenment in Europe. This movement gave birth to the principle of the encyclopedic and universal museum housing diverse collections of artworks for the purposes of public display and scientific study.

Louvre Abu Dhabi offers a global vision of the history of world art, one that is inevitably evolve over time. This evolution will be shaped by the different loans and the gradual enrichment of the collection, and, above all, by the acquisition of new knowledge and the adoption of fresh approaches.​
