Nabil Anani

Autor Anani, Nabil Contribuţii de Barghouti Mourid, Makhoul Bashir
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 mai 2018
Considered by many as a key founder of the contemporary Palestinian art movement, Nabil Anani is one of the most prominent Palestinian artists working today. A painter, ceramicist and sculptor, Anani has built an impressive catalogue of outstanding, innovative and unique art over the past four decades, pioneering the use of local media such as leather, henna, natural dyes, Papier-mache, wood, beads and copper.

Nabil Anani's development as an artist has run in parallel with major events in recent Palestinian history. Palestinian art exhibits, as a consequence of its extraordinary political and historical context, distinctive artistic responses to issues of exile, dislocation, conflict, memory and loss. Indeed, Anani's work, embracing a wide range of media and artistic expression as well as a commitment to public art, embraces those critical political and psychological areas, which constitute the lived Palestinian experience. His artistic vision restores and celebrates a denied and often-forgotten reality, his work re-igniting memory.

Published to coincide with the 70-year anniversary of the Nakba, this book brings together over 150 of the pioneering artist's works from 1976-2016, as well as essays from leading experts in contemporary Middle Eastern and Palestinian art. Filling a critical gap in Palestinian art history, this monograph is essential for the expert and enlightening for the general reader.
