‘Word’ and ‘Illumination’ exhibitions
Madinah Governorate, Saudi Arabia
January – May 2014
I organized two exhibitions in Madinah, Saudi Arabia consisting of ‘Word’, an exhibition of calligraphy works on loan from the British Museum, and ‘Illumination’, an exhibition of historical and contemporary photography.
Due to the high value of the works exhibited, and this being the first time objects were loaned to Saudi Arabia by the British Museum, the two exhibitions presented logistical challenges. My responsibilities included managing loan agreements, negotiating with insurers and arranging framing and shipping.
