Here is the DAMN’s lead on the story about design in the Middle East featuring Droog al Arab:

Droog al Arab

On Design and Art in the Middle East

But those with business class destination-deficiency syndrome do not dictate life and art, and as Mark Twain quipped ‘reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated’. Surveying the fortunes & development of the regional art and design scenes, one resident expatriate also profiles the work of ‘local’ artists Rokni & Ramin Haerizadeh and Hassan Sharif.
