A host of Yemeni and Italian artists have exhibited their works at Al-Bab Gallery, in the old city of Sana'a after holding a joint workshop at Sana'a Atelier.
The gallery was inaugurated on Sunday Sept 5 by Nabil Al-Faqih, Secretary of the Ministry of Culture, and Mr. Giacomo Sanfelice, Italian ambassador to Sana'a, in the presence of members of the political corpse, and will last for five days.
The gallery featured innovative works of Yemeni and Italian artists that deserved the appreciation of the visitors.
“What has affected my soul is the harmony among works and their accuracy which suggests that art is an open language for communication between nations,” said Nabil Al-Faqih.
Italian artist B. Diodato wrote the following: “(It is) a very successful result of the friendly cooperation and artistic exchange between Yemeni and Italian very prominent artists.”
The gallery was visited on Tuesday by HE Minister of Culture and Tourism Khaled Al-Rowaishan, and Tawfiq Al-Ahmer, who said it ” is wonderful, and reveals chanting horizons of colors that emanate the Yemeni spirit, beautiful color, creative cooperation, and identical emotions of the human in Yemen and Italy.”
