About This Item
Booth-Clibborn Editions, 2009. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. First Edition. 285mm x 320mm. Book and plates very clean. Binding tight.106 plates. This lavish volume, published to accompany an exhibition at London's new Saatchi Gallery, is a striking collection of contemporary art from the Middle East. As Lisa Farjam, founder of 'Bidoun 'magazine, writes in her introduction, 'The Middle East today is routinely viewed through the all-too-predictable prism of strife, oppression and terrorism, which obscures a great deal.' With works gathered from artists of Middle Eastern origin living all over the world, 'Unveiled' reveals a region of dizzying complexity and energy, characterized by diverse cultural, historical and political influences that stretch back centuries. Diana Al-Hadid, Ahmed Alsoudani, Nadia Ayari, Ramin and Rokni Haerizadeh, Barbad Golshiri and Shadi Ghadirian are just a few of the artists whose work is represented in these vibrant, stunning pages..
