Through art, we narrate the story of the space — curating, commissioning and installing exceptional artworks for hotels, residences and public spaces across the Middle East.
عبر الفن، نروي قصة المكانFounded in 2016 through the merger of The Courtyard Gallery and Rafia Gallery, Courtyard Arts draws on nearly two decades of expertise in Middle Eastern and international art — united by one passion: curating exceptional artworks for exceptional spaces.
Our design approach is driven by research — every concept begins with the story of the space, its culture and its people.
We manage every stage of the project — from initial consultancy and concept design through sourcing, logistics, and final installation — delivering a seamless, personalized experience.
Art Consultancy
Research-driven artistic concepts tailored to each space — its interior, its culture, its narrative.
Concept & Design
From the initial idea to a complete artistic direction — moodboards, schedules and artwork packages for every area.
Sourcing & Commissioning
Original works sourced and commissioned from Middle Eastern and international artists — from emerging talent to Botero and Corberó.
Logistics
Handling, framing, shipping and storage — artworks moved with the care they deserve, anywhere in the region.
Installation
Placement and installation to museum standard — the final act that turns a hotel or branded residence into a story.
