Open-Air Art in Jeddah

Jeddah is unique in the fact that is probably Saudi Arabia’s most artistic city, which has an array of bizarre sculptures and modern artworks dotted along the coastal area known as the Corniche. These landmarks are like an open-air museum and are a result of the post-1980s oil boom focus on revitalising Jeddah’s public areas. Artists who feature work in the city include: Jean Arp, Cesar, Alexander Calder, Henry Moore, Joan Miro and Victor Vasarely. Among some of the more famous pieces includes a square block of marble with several cars protruding out of it at odd angles and a giant bicycle. (Source)
