Fatima El HajjViolon III
About the Item
Née au Liban en 1953, Fatima El-Hajj a obtenu en 1978 son diplôme à l’Institut des Beaux-arts de l’Université Libanaise, puis celui de l’Académie des Beaux-arts de Leningrad et enfin en 1983 le diplôme de l’Ecole nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs de Paris. Elle enseigne à l’Institut des Beaux-arts de Beyrouth de 1985 (année où elle obtient le Prix Picasso à Madrid) jusqu’en 2017. Depuis 1986, elle expose régulièrement au Liban, dans plusieurs pays arabes où elle est connue et reconnue (Koweit, Emirats A. Unis, Bahreïn, Syrie, Maroc, Qatar…), en Espagne et en France. Son travail est présent dans les collections permanentes de l’I.M.A. entre autres.
Her paintings show an absence of concession, a search for a personal world, for a harmony that is born from contradictory sentiments, between tranquillity and revolt, dreams and doubt. She paints most often in a large scale, on canvas or panels, as comfortable working with oils as with acrylics. As a colorist, she does not ignore the effects of her materials. Movement, light, and suggestions of form work together in her pieces, sometimes to the point of taunting abstraction. The exhibition “The Gardens of the Soul” offers a faithful summary of the work of Fatima El-Hajj, who is seen in her country as the fruits of her French schooling.It is, however, important to note that, having been born and raised in the East, and as she lives there now, she has naturally known to stray from the “orientalist stereotypes” that are ultimately nothing more than a superficial glimpse of one culture upon another, with its inevitable distorted prism, and its received ideas. However, such a classification would be insufficient by far. We must instead find within her art a bridge between two worlds, the East and the West, the visible and the invisible, a style of painting that aligns itself with the universal goal of art."

Ghazi Baker, a proponent of Neo-expressionism, was born in 1967 in the vibrant city of Beirut, Lebanon.

In 1991, Baker graduated with distinction from the esteemed American University in Beirut, earning a degree in architecture (B. Arch). This academic pursuit not only honed his technical skills but also instilled in him a profound appreciation for spatial dynamics, form, and structure—a foundation that would later shape his distinctive artistic style.
Artistic Journey:
Despite his architectural training, Baker felt an irresistible pull towards the realm of visual arts. Fueled by an innate passion for creativity and expression, he embarked on a transformative journey into the world of painting.

Neo-expressionist Evolution:

His works reflect a profound engagement with the human condition, exploring themes of identity, displacement, and the universal quest for meaning. Through his dynamic compositions and visceral imagery, Baker invites viewers to delve beneath the surface.
International Recognition:
Over the years, Baker's distinctive style has garnered widespread acclaim, earning him recognition on the international stage. His works have been exhibited in galleries and museums around the world, captivating audiences with their raw energy and emotional resonance. From New York to Paris...
