Hassan Musa - Installation, Assembled textiles

Musa is one of the most important contemporary artists of both Arabic and African heritage. Musa’s work approaches Western civilization as subject matter by referring to its iconography, thus questioning North/South relations and the dialogue between cultures. Always connected to the contemporary actuality, his works express at the same time his dual African and Oriental identity. This “identity” is also reflected by Musa’s role as an acclaimed calligrapher.
