(MENAFN- Mid-East Info) Venice – September 2026



The internationally acclaimed Saudi visual artist Shalimar Sharbatly is participating in a contemporary art exhibition taking place in Venice, Italy, on September 3rd, 2026, as part of an exceptional artistic and cultural celebration hosted at Palazzo Donà dalle Rose. The event brings together contemporary art, artificial intelligence, immersive technology and live music, with the participation of a distinguished group of artists and creatives from around the world.

Sharbatly will be exhibiting alongside artists Devy Man and Rosa Mundi in an exhibition that highlights emerging trends in contemporary art and creates a platform for dialogue between visual creativity and modern technologies in one of the world's leading cities for art and culture.

Sharbatly's participation reflects her great international presence in the contemporary art scene and her commitment to presenting an artistic experience that goes beyond traditional boundaries. Her work explores the relationship between art, movement, technology and modern spaces in line with her artistic journey of innovation, experimentation and creative renewal.

The organizers of the Venice Biennale have highlighted internationally acclaimed visual artist Shalimar Sharbatly in the event's promotional materials. Her name has been featured in printed brochures and videos produced for the Biennale, alongside a selection of prominent international artists participating in the event. This promotional presence reflects Sharbatly's standing on the international art scene as a contributor to innovative artistic experiences that combine authenticity, renewal and openness to contemporary technologies and creative approaches.

Shalimar Sharbatly said:“I am delighted to participate in this distinguished artistic event in Venice, one of the world's most important capitals of art and culture, and to be part of an experience that brings together contemporary art, artificial intelligence and technology. I believe technological development opens new spaces for artists to express themselves and explore innovative forms and approaches. However, technology remains a tool in the hands of the creator, while human vision and artistic sensibility remain at the heart of the creative process. This participation represents an important opportunity to engage in dialogue with artists and creatives from around the world and explore new horizons for the future of art.”

The event coincides with the AI Film & Ads Awards, an international initiative dedicated to exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence and cinematic creativity. It will be held at Palazzo Donà dalle Rose in the Fondamenta Nove area of Venice and is organized by The Unique Team in collaboration with Fondazione Donà dalle Rose. The night will begin with screenings of AI films, followed by the AI Film Awards ceremony. The cocktail reception and art exhibition, featuring Shalimar Sharbatly and the other participating artists, will begin at 7:00 p.m.

The program will also include the LED Frame immersive experience, taking visitors on a journey through light, color and artistic transformation, followed by a live musical performance entitled“Healing Light” at 9:00 p.m., presented by artist Laura Maria Redini, known as“The Healing Voice.”

The competition is organized by KM Universe and focuses on the growing role of artificial intelligence in developing storytelling, visual language and modern production techniques, while fostering innovation across the audiovisual creative industries.

Since its inaugural edition in Cannes, France, in May 2024, the AI Film & Ads Awards has expanded its international presence through events held in major cities including Cannes, Venice, Dubai, Marrakech, Paris, Bali, Hong Kong and São Paulo, among others.
