Magic from Madi

Lebanese artist Hussein Madi has been the star of the show at the Artspace Gallery for the past few weeks, and you’ve still got time to head to the DIFC to catch one of the Arab world’s foremost artists.

Madi’s experiments in colour and form relate to modern artists like Matisse and Picasso but also show the principles of divine
harmony that regularly inform the abstract designs of Islamic art.

A selection of innovative works by the painter, sculptor and printmaker are on show and Abdulla Bin Hamad Bin Sougat, CEO of the DIFC Lifestyle Group says: “DIFC is keen to host exhibitions of the works of renowned artists like Hussein Madi who have raised the global profile of Arab contemporary art through their experimental works.”

The exhibition runs until February 11, visit www.artspace-dubai.com
