  • Dubai's Museum Types
    Dubai’s Museum Types: A Structural Analytic John Biln and Mohamed El-Amrousi This is a pre-print version of the following article, published in print form and available online: http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/berghahn/armw/2014/00000002/00000001/art00007. Biln, John, and Mohamed El-Amrousi. “Dubai’s Museum Types: A Structural Analytic.” Museum Worlds: Advances in Research 2 (2014): 99-112. Abstract Dubai is often characterized as a city of artificiality and repackaged public spaces – a city without a past. The old historic Dubai has essentially disappeared, lost in the shadows of iconic resort projects and popular shopping malls. This article asks the following question: how do Dubai’s museums function in relation to an urban field for the most part bereft of historical fabric, and in which the history that is made visible within the public realm is largely fictional or highly sanitized? We argue that to make sense of the ways history is represented and circulated in Dubai’s public spaces, the traditional categories of ‘museum’ should be extended to include both large-scale history-themed malls and small heritage houses. Taken altogether, Dubai’s museums and museum-like institutions constitute a conceptually complete and closed system that manages to ‘resolve’ the apparent paradox of an urban context characterized by absence and historical loss, in which, paradoxically, expressions of historical fullness are everywhere. The rapid urban development and commercial repackaging of public space in Dubai has resulted in a city of overwhelming artificiality. Iconic projects such as the Palm Island, Burj al-Arab, Burj Dubai (now Burj Khalifa) have collectively given a compelling image to Dubai’s global pretensions.

  • The Louvre Abu Dhabi
    INTRODUCTION Dubai is located on the Eastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula, in the south west corner of the Arabian Gulf. It is extremely well known for its warm hospitality and rich cultural heritage, and the Emirati people are welcoming and generous in their approach to visitors. With year-round sunshine, intriguing deserts, beautiful beaches, luxurious hotels and shopping malls, fascinating heritage attractions and a thriving business community, Dubai receives millions of leisure and business visitors each year from around the world. The local currency is the dirham, which is pegged at AED 3.67 to 1 US dollar. Dubai is tolerant and cosmopolitan and all visitors are welcome. However, Islam is a way of life in the city, and therefore tourists should adopt a certain level of cultural and religious sensitivity for the duration of their stay. Dubai Rulers : Since 1833 the reigning Al Maktoum family have ruled Dubai. Under their wise and progressive leadership Dubai has prospered and it is now the business and tourism hub for a region. Dubai History: Some 800 members of the BaniYas tribe, led by the Maktoum Family, settled at the mouth of the creek in 1833. The creek was a natural harbor and Dubai soon became a centre for the fishing, pearling and sea trade. Dubai Economy: The past few decades have witnessed incredible growth throughout all sectors of the Dubai economy. The emirate’s government is constantly working to improve its commercial transparency and introduce dynamic regulations that aid the formation of small and medium enterprises. Dubai’s economy is no longer reliant on oil, but is more diversified, relying heavily on trade, services and finance sectors.
