Four conferences will be held from 4 to 13 March, all led by experts from the auction house, which is also a partner of the biennial. The topics are intended to be open, and will include the influence of Islamic art on the modern jewellery industry and contemporary Arab art. Alexandra Roy, Sotheby's Head of 20th Century Art and Middle East Sales, will also take the floor to share her experience as a specialist, notably on the importance of the provenance of pieces.
