Structured around three thematic axes—Global History of Museums and Collections, Circulation of Styles, Images and Texts and Precious Materials and Routes of Exchange—the program will address key topics of art historical scholarship, while also advancing and cooperating with research initiatives beyond the museum’s walls.
At the core of this program are the Louvre Abu Dhabi research facilities, which include the museum’s Resource Center, the Library, the Conservation Center, and a Scientific Laboratory allowing for the material analysis of artworks—the first of its kind in the Gulf region. The activities planned for the first five years of operation encompass symposiums, workshops, and publications aimed at stimulating dialogue and disseminating knowledge around Louvre Abu Dhabi’s collections and related themes.
To start the program in 2024, Louvre Abu Dhabi is launching a comprehensive fellowship initiative to support research endeavors for scholars and museum professionals. This encompasses short and long-term fellowships, along with future initiatives with partner institutions.
