Welcome to Euro-Arab Artoday
Art Tales ( 2019 )
I was overwhelmed when I saw my -3 years old- niece Karma holding a book in her little hands as she chattered on with her imaginary tales of the illustrations she beheld_ I wondered: how can these imaginary images inspire her to tell such stories when she can’t even recognize the alphabet yet? Then I recalled an image of an artist working for long tiring hours to ‘present the essence of his knowledge, experience, emotions and perspective of the world through his craft. His visual images told his own story and how it intertwined with the world’s. This is where the name of our exhibition “Art Tales” came to life, here in Rome, the Italian capitaL Thirty tales of thirty artists from different countries, told to the eyes of the beholder, from heart to heart, through their work.
