Curatorial Ethos
The gallery serves as a platform for both established masters and emerging talents, fostering a dialogue between traditional Middle Eastern artistic heritage and cutting-edge contemporary practices. Its mission is to make contemporary art accessible to all segments of society while encouraging local artists and raising awareness of fine arts in Kuwait.
Boushahri Gallery is a commercial contemporary art gallery located in Salmiya, Kuwait City, established in 1982 by sculptor Jawad Boushahri. It operates as one of the oldest private art galleries in the Middle East, featuring paintings, photography, and sculptures from regional and international artists. The venue includes an on-site library and offers educational programs, school visits, and self-guided tours with informational placards.
