Guggenheim Abu Dhabi, clowns, comedy television and theatrical performance were among the diverse subjects discussed during the first day of Culture Summit.
Titled The Universals: What the Arts Tell Us About How We Can Come Together, the discussion was aimed at summarising the universal power of art in the capital. It is one of several short discussions organisers hope will trigger productive thought and future action for the audience, which was made up of international cultural leaders who have flown to Abu Dhabi for the summit from all over the world.
