4. About Atkya
ATKYA (formerly known as Ameera Arts) has become a global leader in art consultancy,
able to curate or create artworks in any medium or genre for any client wherever they
may be in the world.
Our rich history begins in the royal palaces of the Middle East, serving our clients’ insa-
tiable appetite for the spectacular and the awe-inspiring. Over the years, our reach has
extended to Europe and beyond, our artists have blossomed and their ranks swelled,
and our client base diversified to cover any individual or organisation looking to express
themselves through the art they display.
We have had the great privilege of working in some of the most spectacular of venues,
and those of a few of our most valued clients including the palace of HH The President
of the UAE in Abu Dhabi, Dresdner Bank in Geneva, the United Nations Building in New
York and the German Embassy in Paris.
Central to the reputation we have built for consistent quality over the years are the tal-
ented individuals working for us – art consultants, spatial designers and the incredible
artists whose exclusive works, commissioned reproductions, or collections are available
through ATKYA.

5. Corporate Clients
When you welcome your clients, customers, suppliers, or even the talented individuals
you hope to attract to your organisation, the judgement they make about your business
may already be formed before your first handshake.
We know how vitally important it is in any competitive marketplace to stand out for all
the right reasons. Make sure the first impression your office space makes is a positive
and lasting one.
Years of experience working with the likes of Millennium Hotel Kuwait, Aramco Com-
mercial & Residential Complex, Kunstkamer Wijdemeren Art brokerage and Gulf Invest-
ment House (GIH), ensure that we fully appreciate the need for establishing the right
blend of impact and sophistication, to select just the right pieces – whether curated,
commissioned or chosen from our immense collection, and to consider the intricacies
of display with equal commitment.

6. “Mr Ali Awad and his team provided JW Marriot with an exclusive
contemporary artwork collection. They selected all of the artwork for
our HQ offices in Kuwait and UAE. We found the ATKYA team to be
both knowledgeable and professional, with an amazing ability to find
and create art that is exciting and meets the aesthetic needs of each
environment. Mr Ali Awad is a delightful person and we always enjoy
having the opportunity to work with him.”

7. Royal Clients
ATKYA’s longest standing and most loyal clients can be found among the monarchies
of the Middle East. Their palaces and private residences have long been blank canvases
for our artistic creativity. And it is from the reputation that we were privileged to build
there that we have been able to expand our business to new continents and client
bases.
Esteemed former and current clients include Prince Abdul Aziz Bin Fahd in Saudi Arabia,
Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayad (UAE), Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin
Rashid Al Maktoum , Prince fahd bin salman Khubar Palace, Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmed
and Sheikh Ali Khalifa Al Sabah (Kuwait).
Precision, discretion and absolute respect for our client’s image and reputation are
always of paramount importance. Our senior art consultants have a great deal of experi-
ence not only in the tastes and expectations of many royal families, but also the cus-
toms and etiquette required when working with such clients.

8. “We have found ATKYA to be a meticulous curator of artworks for us,
with a great eye and attention to all the details required to assemble,
install and care for an art collection. They managed the selection and
installation of artworks at our royal residences. The process went very
smoothly and the artworks have had a significant impact on the look
and feel of the palace and its surroundings.”
