IAIA and William White are pleased to present Rahaal, a flagship nomadic museum unfolding across three pavilions, an exhibition space, a salon and a library, in the historic nature reserve of Zekreet, Qatar — just miles from Richard Serra’s monumental East–West/West–East.

Founded by Mohammed Rashid Al-Thani, the founding director and curator of the Institute of Arab and Islamic Art and William Cooper, acclaimed designer and founder of WIlliam White, Rahaal is conceived as a beacon for intellectuals, patrons, collectors and cultural luminaries, as a site where nature, culture, and art converge in a single, transformative experience that reflects centuries of Arab rituals rooted in community building around nature. In the spirit of cross-cultural celebrations, Rahaal offers an unequivocal opportunity for various diverse movements and mediums to meld within a shared visual iconography, bringing perspectives closer in a profound, yet intimate cultural setting. As the only satellite project officially designated by Qatar Museums and Art Basel, Rahaal offers a multi-sensory journey across landscape, language and the space between.
