Event Details
Submitted by the Event Organizer
Algerian painter Driss Ouadahi studied architecture before immigrating to Germany, where he continues to live and work. Utilizing a vocabulary of architectural motifs, Ouadahi makes large-scale paintings that borrow from the history of modernist grid painting and traditional Islamic aesthetics, while tackling the difficult and timely topic of human migration.
Hosfelt Gallery will present new paintings by Ouadahi, largely renderings of chain-link fences, that were influenced by the artist’s interactions with Syrian and Iraqi refugees who have re-settled in Germany. Ouadahi’s depictions of the fence are meticulous.
