As the Sun Appears from Beyond celebrates over 20 years of contemporary Islamic art, illuminating its enduring legacy, creativity, and spiritual resonance. Making its North American debut after opening at the 18th Al Burda Award ceremony, which took place at the Louvre Abu Dhabi, the exhibition is presented in collaboration with the UAE Ministry of Culture.

Epic and intricate, monumental and meticulous—the paintings of Kashmir-raised, London-based artist Raqib Shaw offer fantastical meditations on identity, transformation, and the redemptive power of beauty.
