Overview
Aga Khan Centre Gallery formally opened in September 2019 with an exhibition of new work by renowned Egyptian Lebanese artist Bahia Shehab. Our gallery is young and building its programme but we hope you enjoy viewing our programme to date. We hope this inspires you to visit our exhibitions and experience our incredible building and its gardens too. While Bahia Shehab’s show formally launched our Gallery Programme, we also hosted two exhibitions in the gallery space prior to the launch. Please click on the links below for further information.
