Art Asia Pacific now available at The Third Line



I just picked up my copy of the Art Asia Pacific Almanac for 2015 from The Third Line gallery in Al Quoz, Dubai. This veritable encyclopedia of all things art across 67 countries in Asia, is a wonderful collection of art, information and reflections from industry leaders. Inside is a 4-page spread by Kevin Jones summing up the last year of art in the UAE as well as similar entries on every country in the region. The Reflections section features Abdelmonem Alserkal, the founder and owner of Alserkal Avenue, talking with pride about the art scene here and there are many more gems to be found.

The most exciting thing is that from now on The Third Line will be stocking the magazine every other month when the new issues come out. Make sure you go get your copy before they run out.
