No modern society can allow itself to neglect the cultural and artistic elements of its development.
The spectacular changes in our systems of communication and the transformation of our planet into a global village have rendered this dimension much more important, even critical, as it enables us to measure the openness of a given society and its capacity for dialogue with neighboring societies.

There is no question that our Arab society, through its younger generations hungry for knowledge and curious as to what other cultures think, needs and awareness of its own cultural and artistic dimension. Under our very eyes, a rhythm is taking shape, both grave and indisputably original, the vocation of the Arab artist to truly participate in the cotemporary movement of creation, in all its diversity.


It is also the vocation of our collection to assert, with other Arab institutions, our participation in the movement towards an opening up of Arab plastic arts. This is so that, through their diversity and their wealth, we develop our visual relationship with our enviroment, to find increased comprehension of our lives, so that the different sectors of our societies can draw inspiration from this.

We seek to encourage faith in the future through art, and the hope of enriching our lives with more intense communication with one another, that this communication should become a part of us, which will enable us to better understand the necessity for our society to grow without for a moment having to renounce our cultural specifity.

The Kinda Foundation considers that there is no nobler way than artistic expression to demonstrate one's contribution and moral responsibility to a society whose dreams take shape with a singular spiritual wealth, in the midst of a general evolution where no excuses can be advanced for those who are not up to this challenge and the responsibilities it implies.
