The numerous public art installations are the work of the Qatar Museums Authority, which collaborated with the airport’s steering committee over the past five years to bring several international pieces to Qatar.

Among the most noticeable pieces on display are:

Lamp Bear by Swiss artist Urs Fischer (located at the center of the airport);
Oryx sculptures and Playground by Dutch artist Tom Claassen (in the Arrivals area); and
Desert horse sculpture by Qatari artist Ali Hassan (outside of the airport).
