The largest immersive digital art centre, Infinity des Lumieres, has been inaugurated and is set to open to the public on 1 July.
The art centre was inaugurated by Her Highness Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairperson of Dubai Culture and Arts Authority.
The centre will offer a multi-sensory journey, through the art of Van Gogh’s Starry Nights, Danny Rose Studio’s Dreamed Japan, The Image of the Floating World and Thomas Vanz’s fully digital creation, Verse.
The technology-driven artistic platform uses 130 projectors, 58 speakers and 3,000 HD digital moving images.
Infinity des Lumières will bring digital creatives to Dubai and will provide an innovative platform that would open up prospects for art in the UAE.
The art centre is located on level 2 at Dubai Mall, with the main entrance in front of Galeries Lafayette.

Along with the Authority’s support, we aim to create the ultimate platform for art to merge with diverse industries through unique symposia, partnering with visionary institutions, thinkers, industry leaders, innovators, and emerging local, regional and international artists. We look forward to collaborating with local and regional digital art enthusiasts, who desire a unique cultural experience and seek to participate in shaping a more prosperous future for creativity in Dubai.
