The Noor Riyadh: A New Visual Culture Classic Edition documents the annual light art festival launched in Saudi Arabia in 2021, presenting works from thirty-five countries alongside site-specific commissions by 35 Saudi artists including Muhannad Shono and Ahaad Alamoodi. Its pages feature contributions from internationally recognised artists such as Janet Echelman, Diana Thater, SUPERFLEX, and Carsten Höller, whose installations explore light, time, and space. The volume also records Studio Drift's 'Desert Swarm', which set a Guinness World Record for the largest drone/multirotor bird swarm, marking the festival's status as the world's largest light art festival. A diverse array of images captures the installations' scale and visual energy, reflecting the dialogue between traditional and contemporary artistic perspectives.
