Signs: Seven Renowned Artists from the Middle East
A groundbreaking exhibition that provides a rare glimpse into the world of Middle Eastern art, curated by Karin von Roques in association with Sundaram Tagore Gallery. Grappling with aesthetic philosophy, mysticism, tradition, and issues of everyday survival and existence, all seven artists challenge convention and create new visual language. For centuries, the written word has played a defining role in Islamic visual culture - a legacy that persists even today. Working with different media, including paint on canvas, collage, ink on paper, wood and gold leaf, these artists take traditional Arabic script and symbols as their point of departure. The roster of artists includes: Ahmad Moualla (Syria); Ayman El Semary (Egypt); Hassan Massoudy (Iraq); Khaled Al-Saa'i (Syria); Ali Hassan (Qatar); Georges Fikry Ibrahim (Egypt); and Yousef Ahmad (Qatar). This will be the only West-Coast Showing of the Signs exhibition.
