About the Item

With his multimedia portraits, Moroccan artist Hassan Hajjaj thrives in a space between cultures, traditions, mediums, and artistic movements. The subjects of his photography range from underground musicians to friends and strangers he encounters on the street. Remixing traditional Moroccan floor mat textiles with flashy neo-dandy street fashion, the artist mashes up patterns and colors that overwhelm the eye and recall the organized chaos of the urban Moroccan marketplace. Taking a holistic approach to the creation and experience of his artwork, Hajjaj pays homage to the craft traditions that flourished in North Africa, seen in the inclusion of Moroccan textiles the photograph, while juxtaposing these traditions with glimpses of contemporary street style and commercial consumption that are driven by international cultural exchange. Signed and editioned in verso.

Khamsa I (Ali), 2016 digital c print 14" x 11 inches Edition of 50 Set of 3 available for $1250 This image is of a young refugee boy on the shores of Lesvos clutching a (k)hamsa made with life jacket swatches and emergency blankets from the island, the painting was created by tracing the hand of a refugee child and drawing their eyes inside of it. The human condition is the driving motivation behind my work, it’s triumphs, failures, and banality are inexhaustible source material. Using community as a platform for creation, the work is a collaboration with the subjects - as models, fixers, craftsmen, historians, designers - the people who are being described are those who guide the visual narrative. Together, we make work. Aubrey Roemer was born in Rochester, NY.

Nja Mahdaoui original Tunisian artist signed limited edition art silkscreen gold

Nja Mahdaoui original Tunisian artist signed limited edition art silkscreen gold

Located in Miami, FL

Nja Mahdaoui (Tunisia, 1937) Untitled, ca.2000 silkscreen on paper 27.6 x 19.7 in. (70 x 50 cm.) Edition of 99 Good condition Unframed ID: NJA1099-001-099 ______________________________ Born in 1937, Tunis. He lives and works in Tunisia. In 1967, he graduated from the Academy of Arts of Santa Andrea in Rome and the Ecole du Louvre (Department of Oriental Antiquities). He pursued his academic training in Paris, at the Cite Internationale des Arts, on a scholarship from the Tunisian Government. He’s one of Tunisia’s leading artists and a notable Arab contemporary artist. Nja Mahdaoui is a visual artist who considers himself ‘an explorer of signs’ and has been described as a ‘choreographer of letters’. His work inspired by Arabic calligraphy is remarkably innovative as the aesthetic dimension of letters brings forth a sense of the poetic – highly rhythmic – arresting us with its rich abstracts compositions. Famous for his meticulous work in ink on parchment, Mahdaoui stresses the visual impact of his compositions, devoided of actual textual meaning, which he refers to as ‘calligrams’ or ‘graphemes’. Thus, the concept beyond the works reveals how the ideas are conveyed creatively through the artist choice of materials and medium: Canvas, vellum, papyrus, arches paper, silkscreen print, book, poster, design, sculpture, aluminium, brass, melamine, drum, textile, embroidery, tapestry, ceramic, wood, jewelry, stained steel glass, architecture, planes… Nja has been Jury member and Honor guest at many international events and biennales (Sharjah International Arabic Calligraphy Biennial, UAE, 2006, The International Arts Biennial of Tehran, Iran, 2006, Abu Dhabi Art Festival in 1989…) and he was member of the International Jury of the Arts Prize of UNESCO from 1993 to 1995. He has received a number of distinctions and international awards, such as the ‘Great prize for Arts and Letters’ from the Tunisian Ministry of culture in 2006 and the UNESCO great prize for Artcrafts in the Arab world in 2005. He designed monumental artworks such as windows murals for Facebook new Menlo Park Headquarters in California (2018), the window façade of the ALECSO headquarters in Tunis (2015), KAUST University Campus Mosque in Saudi Arabia (2010), Gulf Air aircrafts (50th Anniversary, 2000), sculptures and tapestries in Jeddah and Riyadh airports, Aramco head office in Dahran, and created many logos, designs and posters for theater plays, books, companies, and organizations such as Amnesty International in 1991… In addition, he took part in Art Projects, introducing his work in performing art within the framework of theatre and dance. Performances of ‘Total Art’ and ‘Body-Writing’: interactive communication between Arab and European artists, and artists from North America and Asia on the theme “Language and register in exchanges in visual arts“ in Tunisia, France, Italy, Denmark, Japan, Cuba, Canada, Germany and Jordan… In 2012, he has performed a charity live creation for Noor Dubai Foundation, in collaboration with 4 young Emiratis artists, hosted and organized by Christie’s, under the patronage of H.E. The Minister of Culture for the UAE, Abdulrahman Al Owais. And recently, a performance with the Italian artist Agostino Ferrari, ‘Meeting signs’ at the Living Art National Center in Tunisia and during the ‘Confini Festival’ at the Municipal Theater F. Cilea in Reggio Calabria, Italy. He takes part regularly in seminars and colloquia at universities in Tunisia and abroad and gives lectures. At the American University of Sharjah in 2007, in the AUD American University of Dubai in 2011 – ‘Crossing the Line: Drawing in the Middle East – intersections of transdisciplinary practice and understanding’, and lately at CSUN California State University Northridge and at UCLA University of California, Los Angeles in 2011. Nja participated in numerous exhibitions worldwide including ‘Word into Art’ at the British Museum, ‘The Brush dances & the Ink Signs’ at the Hermitage Museum, ‘Perspectives: Arab & Iranian modern masters’ at the Saatchi Gallery, the ‘Arab Book...
