    LONDON

    Spread across five floors at 58 Brook Street, Barakat London is nestled in the beating heart of London and at the epicenter of the artworld. The Brook Street gallery provides an intimate and personalised platform for the public, scholars, and the worlds leading collectors to access the extraordinary collection and Barakat's expertise. Everyone is welcome in London - all will be personally guided through the millennia to non-prejudicially explore the extraordinary diversity of human creativity.

     

    A fresh young team based out of Barakat London aim to increase the appreciation of Barakat across the board and ensure the rich collections are accessible to new audiences, young and old. The team will work to critically engage with the ways the collection can operate in a contemporary context. The team is in the process of enhancing the London exhbition spaces as well as innovating our core infastructure to ensure Barakat continues to be an exceptional and intimate platform for great scholarship, collection care and critical cultural engagement. 

     

    The ultimate aim in London is to curate and programme a dynamic exhibition space as well as maintain a flagship hub to support scholarship, reinvorgated collection care, the strategic development of Barakat globally. In the process we hope to renliven the sector and ensure our sustainability for another 5 generations.

      Closer

      London 10 February - 6 April 2019
      Today we are more connected than ever before but are we any closer? Despite (or perhaps because of) the dense networking of our society, many still feel lonely and isolated, and finding meaningful relationships in real life, not only online, is perhaps more of a challenge than in previous generations. Given this context, the exhibition aims to look beyond simply being in contact with others and ask what it can mean to be ‘close’ to someone else. Curated entirely from the extensive Barakat Collection the exhibition unites unique and extraordinary objects spread across 8,000 years of human history and celebrates the diverse ways humans come together; physically, emotionally and spiritually. Implicitly it allows a audience to consider what brings us together, more than what keeps us apart.
