Fortune Cookies > Art Dubai 2012 > Part 2 ( @ArtDubai )

Another look back at Art Dubai 2012. We'll start with fortune cookies by artist UBIK...
The fortune cookies intrigued us! This, one of Art Dubai's Projects for 2012, is about the Dubai-based UBIK presenting a portrait of himself 'Portrait of an Artist' through his Statements. This edible project documents the "precarious and symbolic relationship that artists share with their bank balance on a daily basis." After that yummy and fun art treat, we proceeded to the booths...

"Navigating an art fair is a little like a Pac Man game: be prepared to consume and be consumed. Be careful which way you turn so you don’t get jammed in social chit-chat and lots of air kissing – the clock is always ticking." -Art Dubai
