AN HOMAGE TO THE INFINITY OF THE DESERT
Through its very essence Infinity des Lumières pays homage to the history, heritage and landscape of Dubai.
The minimalist design of the venue embodies the infinite freedom of the desert, while the architecture is inspired by the iconic Al Fahidi Fort - the oldest standing structure in Dubai - a symbol of people coming together, to share experiences, to grow and expand through visionary ideas.
The feeling of infinity, as experienced on top of a dune in the middle of the desert, is mirrored in the name of the venue, and encapsulated in the signature scent that welcomes visitors in the main reception area, taking them on a bespoke olfactory journey and creating long lasting connections.
Infinity des Lumières transposes the feeling of the infinity of the desert, as poetic and magical, into the comprehensive, immersive experience of art.
INFINITE POSSIBILITIES
Expanding the concept of infinity the venue powerfully epitomizes the universal aspect of art, and the infinite possibilities it has to engage, inspire and transform. Born out of a desire to revolutionize traditional ways of portraying, viewing and understanding art, Infinity des Lumières makes art accessible and inspiring to everyone, regardless of age, language, culture, nationality, educational background or artistic interest and knowledge.
INFINITELY IMAGINATIVE
Infinity des Lumières presents three diverse exhibitions, embodying the infinite beauty of nature. Our main exhibition is dedicated to the genius of Vincent Van Gogh, and traces the evolution of his art from dark tones and sombre themes in his native Netherlands, to bright, vibrant colours in Paris, inspiring scenes of country life and vividly beautiful nature in Provence, showcasing the profound influence of Japanese art on the artist. It includes powerful self-portraits as well as Vincent’s correspondence with his brother Theo. The world of this great master comes to life through 163 images, moving ingeniously across the expansive space, while vibrant colours and delicate shapes waltz and swirl to 15 mesmerizing music compositions.
The second exhibition is infinitely poetic in recreating the dreamlike world of 19th century Japan, through 240 images, set to 8 complementary music pieces. “Dreamed Japan” is dedicated to the fascination of Van Gogh and other European artists of the time with “Japonisme” and the meaning of Ukiyo-e art as “floating world pictures.” Captivating portraits of geishas and fearless samurai warriors seamlessly blend with enchanting landscapes and impressive waves, while wondrous sea creatures and delicate soaring lanterns take you on a curious adventure.
The third exhibition, Verse, explores the wonders of the universe and is created specifically for the Infinity des Lumières Contemporary Room by Thomas Vanz, with ethereal harmonies composed by Vanz and Jonathan Fitas. Showcasing the magical beauty and harmonious movement of the stars, Verse takes us on a captivating journey through the universe, with colossal explosions of colours, reliefs, shapes and sounds.
