Opera Gallery, located at Atlantis The Royal, is proud to announce the much-awaited opening of an extraordinary exhibition, showcasing the iconic works of the late Colombian painter and sculptor, Fernando Botero. This highly anticipated event is scheduled to begin on Wednesday, 20th September until Friday, 6th October, offering a captivating and immersive experience where art and emotion beautifully converge.
Fernando Botero's worldwide acclaim stems from his unique and remarkable artistic style, characterized by smooth, inflated shapes and a playful shift with scale imparting volume, presence, and reality to his creations. This exhibition provides a rare opportunity to witness the grandeur of his artistic universe, where joy, vitality, and sensuality intertwine with profound reflections on society. Showcasing diverse mediums, including canvases, works on paper, and sculptures, the exhibition is infused with vibrant colors and ample forms that inspire a fresh perspective on life’s richness.
Dubai's ascent from the desert sands embodies a spirit of innovation, progress, and a rich tapestry of cultural diversity, resonating with the essence of Botero's art. Similar to Dubai, Botero's masterpieces exude a celebration of abundance, offering a world of grandeur and joy. From the sumptuousness of a fruit bowl to the vitality of a group of musicians, Botero's works vividly commemorate the essence of life.
Timothy Kelly, Executive Vice President, and Managing Director of Atlantis Dubai, commented,
"We are honoured to host this exceptional exhibition featuring artwork from the late Fernando Botero. We invite our guests to enter Botero’s enchanting world and witness an extraordinary showcase celebrating his iconic legacy."
The exhibition's unique charm lies in the profound connection between Botero's creations and the spirit of the region. Botero's art resonates deeply with the essence of Dubai, where dreams materialise into reality, mirroring the artist's belief in life's boundless possibilities. Botero's art encourages us to embrace the beauty of existence and cherish the shared human experience that unites us all.
Art enthusiasts, collectors, hotel guests, and residents from all walks of life are cordially invited to witness works from one of the world's most celebrated artists and experience the enchantment of Botero's universe in the heart of Dubai.
