Qatar hosting an ‘inclusive, and creative World Cup’

-

Qatar is hosting a very inclusive, creative and diverse FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, said Qatari fine artist Hassan alMulla. Life in the country has morphed into a coloured painting abounding with vitality, beauty, rhythm and joy, he said.

In a statement to Qatar News Agency (QNA), al-Mulla said the prominent sporting event has brought artists and art audiences closer together, with new bridges of dialogue extended between artists and recipients. “Everyone is asking what did I do for the World Cup, and my answer is the participat­ion in the Qatar collective art exhibition organised by Katara – the Cultural Village Foundation within the framework of its programme, artistic and cultural activities for the World Cup,” he said. The event witnessed the participat­ion of male and female artists from the Qatari art scene.

Al-Mulla added he is participat­ing in the exhibition with eight artistic works that inspire the idea of hosting the tournament, indicating he made an artistic formulatio­n for the new climate in his paintings that put Doha at the centre of the world’s attention.

Al-Mulla’s art works are characteri­sed by beauty and aesthetics, along with the ability to photograph the scenes through honouring the humanitari­an feelings, combining the artistic photograph­y, warmth of emotions and feelings, and the celebratio­n of cultural heritage symbols.

The Qatari Fine Arts Exhibition activities continue at the hall of Katara building 19, and will run until December 18 with the participat­ion of a number of the Qatari fine artists.
