Safwan Dahoul: Still Dreaming

17 January - 28 February 2011

Ayyam Gallery Dubai DIFC is pleased to announce the forthcoming solo show of prominent Syrian artist Safwan Dahoul.

 

A leading regional painter, Dahoul’s ongoing Dream series has become one of the most recognized bodies of work in contemporary Arab art. Honoring a selection of recent canvases from this seminal collection, the exhibition Still Dreaming will feature paintings that continue to advance nearly three decades of this incomparable aesthetic.   Dahoul’s oversized acrylic-on-canvas works possess a complex visual language that subtly incorporates (and renews) a number of artistic traditions.
