Riyadh Art program announced the installation of fourteen selected sculptures from the Tuwaiq Sculpture Symposium as part of its permanent public art collection across several prominent locations in the city, including Roshn Front, SEDRA Community (Roshn), and the Sports Boulevard. Additional locations that will host further permanent artworks under Riyadh Art will be announced at a later stage.
Executive Vice President for Lifestyle Sector at the Royal Commission for Riyadh City Eng. Khaled Alhazani stated that this initiative reflects the vision of Riyadh Art in integrating beauty and creativity into the urban fabric, creating vibrant public spaces enriched with culture, and making art a natural part of people’s daily experience. He added that the initiative embodies the program’s strategic direction to transform Riyadh into an open-air gallery where art becomes a defining feature of the city’s identity and a key pillar in enhancing quality of life and strengthening the cultural economy.
These artworks form part of Riyadh Art’s permanent collection, comprising sculptures and pieces created by local and international artists during various editions of the Tuwaiq Sculpture Symposium. Originating from raw stone sourced in the Kingdom, the artworks have been transformed into expressive sculptures that now animate and enrich the city’s public spaces.
