The opening of SB11 marks the inauguration of the Sharjah Art Foundation's (SAF) five new multi-functional art spaces in the Al Mureijah neighborhood. The five exhibition buildings provide a range of interiors to experience art along with a variety of exterior spaces including courtyards, alleyways, open squares and an inter-connected roofscape.
With approximately 20,000 square feet of interior space, the new buildings dialogue with both the existing physicality of the urban fragment as well as its history and past use in order to reactivate the area and invigorate the reception of contemporary art, which is befitting within the culturally rich, multi-layered urban context.
