What does it mean to be universal? For Louvre Abu Dhabi, it is a particular way of seeing the world through art; of using human creation from prehistory to the present to highlight humanity through its commonalities, contrasts and connections as a whole, not isolated across cultures, civilisations and time.
This universal mentality can be discovered throughout every aspect of the museum, from its ethos and architecture to its gallery themes and the careful selection and placement of artworks together.
