Cultural Connections

WHAT: On first inspection the Aegean Sea and the Qatari Desert don’t seem to have much in common. But in his photography exhibition at the Benaki Museum of Islamic Art, Prince Nikolaos is asking us to think twice about this. By placing images of the sea and the sands next to each other in his new exhibition, Prince Nikolaos asks us to explore the beauty, similarities, and individual elements of both. This exhibition will be showcased in both Athens and in the Qatari capital city, Doha. In Athens it will be held inside a typical Qatari bedouin tent, and in Doha inside a traditional Aegean windmill.

WHEN:10th October 2019 – 19th January 2020
