Louvre Abu Dhabi
"The complete guide of the extraordinary collections of the Louvre Abu Dhabi. This ensemble of books will showcase Louvre Abu Dhabi, a museum that will play an important role in the artistic discoveries, education and exchanges between peoples. Louvre Abu Dhabi has been conceived as a museum city or Arabic medina, inspired by the world and for the world. It will be the first Arabic museum of a universal vocation, located in the Saadiyat Cultural District, conceived as a bridge to the future with the purpose of linking knowledge and civilisations. Designed as a global art history handbook across the museum's collections, The Guide will take the reader through a cross-cultural journey through the entire museum, gallery by gallery. The museum will be a place of dialogue between cultures and civilizations and it will offer a transversal vision of art history."--Provided by publisher.

Louvre Abu Dhabi
This album of the Louvre Abu Dhabi collection of works allows readers to fully enjoy what the museum offers its visitors: an encounter with the universal across epochs, cultures and civilisations. The discovery - or rediscovery - of the works exhibited in the Louvre Abu Dhabi is a unique experience: on one hand because they are seen in a new light, that of Abu Dhabi filtered through the dome designed by Jean Nouvel, and on the other because their dialogue with works with which they are not usually presented increases their polysemy.
Worlds in a Museum
Held on the occasion of Louvre Abu Dhabi’s first anniversary, the symposium Worlds in a Museum addressed the topic of museums in the era of globalisation, exploring contemporary museology and the preservation and presentation of culture within the context of changing societies. Departing from the historical museum structure inherited from the Enlightenment, leading experts from art, cultural, and academic institutions explore present-day achievements and challenges in the study, display and interpretation of art, history, and artefacts. How are “global” and “local” objects and narratives balanced – particularly in consideration of diverse audiences? How do we foster perspective and multiculturalism while addressing politicised notions of centre and periphery? As they abandon classical canons and categories, how are museums and cultural entities redefining themselves beyond predefined concepts of geography and history? This collection of essays arises from the symposium Worlds in a Museum organised by Louvre Abu Dhabi and École du Louvre.
