Overview

A complete monograph on a major artist and representative of Moroccan modernity Ispired as much by the grandeur of the Middle Atlas mountains as by artists such as Marc Couturier and Antoni Tàpies, Abdelkébir Rabi's work is a universal, med- itative and contemplative quest. It unfolds in an infinite array of blacks of varying degrees of opacity, symbolising the interplay between light and shadow, figuration and abstraction, fullness and emptiness, the seen and the un- seen. Each black line, often executed in a single gesture, contributes to create a pure and profound work, imbued with spirituality. Rabi' sees art as ""a personal matter"", and his solitary approach underlines his dedication to art.
