Albareh Art Gallery

Albareh Art Gallery was established in 1998 with the primary objectives of celebrating the diverse talent prevalent in Bahrain’s visual arts scene and becoming a centre of excellence for dynamic artistic expression across the Kingdom as well as further a field. Over the last twelve years, Albareh Art Gallery has built a formidable stable of artists, both established and emerging. It has become the definitive destination for loyal devotees, dedicated professionals and adventurous collectors across the Middle East and beyond. Today, the walls of the gallery - located in the residential district of Adliya in Bahrain’s capital of Manama - play host to variety of artistic approaches that tackle the issues and subjects that not only affect the Middle East but the world in general. After all, this captivating world expresses universal values through a universal mode of expression – visual art. Albareh Art Gallery initially sought to spotlight talent through a programme of solo and group exhibitions by established artists from the Arab world as well as their counterparts from other continents. In doing so, it developed an admirable reputation; forging relationships with artists, locally, regionally and internationally. Slowly and steadily, the gallery began to realize its ambition of broadening the viewer’s horizons; creating partnerships with like-minded galleries worldwide; and embedding a professional and strategic approach to Middle Eastern art.
