"I think it will show people who come that there is a common human ground. That Arabs are people who have a culture — who produce art, who dance and sing, who write fiction and do photography,  -Ahdaf Souief. Egyptian Author

From the Arabian Gulf to the Levant to North Africa-this region of the world is the birthplace of human civilization and features extraordinary diversity in geography, traditions, landscape, religion, and contemporary aesthetics.
