A series of conversations with Al-Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani and people who have been part of Qatar’s architecture & culture development journey.

In this episode, Her Excellency hosts Massimiliano Gioni, Artistic Director of both the New Museum in New York and the Nicola Trussardi Foundation in Milan.

Gioni is an Italian curator and contemporary art critic. For Qatar Museums, he curated Murakami-Ego by Japanese artist Takashi Murakami, in 2012, the major Jeff Koons exhibition Lost in America, in 2021, and, most recently, the spectacular fashion-house survey show Forever Valentino at M7, in Msheireb, in 2022.

The discussion explores the relationship between art and fashion, and the role of cultural institutions in showcasing fashion exhibitions and engaging audiences with art collections. He also shares insights about his latest exhibitions, including "Forever Valentino" at M7 in Doha. 

The Power of Culture Podcast is a Qatar Creates production.
