Doha: The Museum of Islamic Art (MIA), in cooperation with the Seashore Group, recently carried out a clean-up operation to restore international artist Richard Serra’s “7” sculpture, located at MIA Park along the corniche.
Commenting on the restoration works, Ahmad Musa Al Namla, CEO of Qatar Museums, said: “Public art is one of Qatar Museums’ main pillars in which we aim to expand the traditional mission of museums by taking art beyond four walls and breathing life into shared urban spaces. Richard Serra’s installation celebrates the significance of the number seven in Islamic culture and is considered to be his first artwork in the Middle East. We are pleased to cooperate with the Seashore Group to clean this striking sculpture.”
