Qatar showcases trove of public art ahead of FIFA World Cup 2022

With FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 fast approaching, Qatar Museums (QM) has announced an expansive public art program that will be gradually rolled out not just in the capital city of Doha but throughout the entirety of the diminutive emirate on the Persian Gulf. As envisioned by the QM, the nation’s public spaces—parks, shopping zones, rail stations, hotel plazas, cultural institutions, Hamad International Airport, and, of course, the eight World Cup 2022 host stadiums—will be transformed into what QM described as a “vast outdoor art museum” just ahead of the soccer-related festivities anticipated to attract one million-plus visitors.
