A home from home is explored in the Little Bangladesh exhibition which starts in New York City on Monday night.
An exhibition opens in New York City on Monday night that explores a day in the life of an otherwise uncelebrated spot in Abu Dhabi – a small square boasting a supermarket and a single tree.
The exhibition, part of a research project that explored how people related to spaces in the UAE, is the work of University of Abu Dhabi associate professor of architecture, Yasser Elsheshtawy.
Little Bangladesh – Mapping Abu Dhabi featured videos, photographs, architectural plans and an opening-night lecture to reflect on work on what the professor terms “informal public spaces”. Details
