There is an art show opening in Dubai, but it’s an art show with a twist.

13 Dubai painters have outdone themselves by taking masterpieces and reproducing them with their own personal flair. 

The show, curated by Judy Shinnick, brings the old classics to life so if you’re a fan, this show is definitely worth a visit.
