نبذة الناشر:Chaouki Chamoun is one of the Middle East’s most
renowned artists. Born in Sariine Tahta, the Bekaa Valley
of Lebanon in 1942, he studied architectural drawing at
night school, then joined the Lebanese University where
he won art scholarships to Syracuse University and later
to New York University. Through more than thirty oneman
shows and over ...fifty group exhibitions, his work
has continuously evolved in search of a new aesthetic
vocabulary.
With over 400 plates to illustrate his story, Chamoun
leads us through his own artistic journey, showing how the
schools of the modern era have informed his technique and
imagery, and how he has been motivated and inspired as
much by the tiniest details of a pebble as by the political
turmoil visited on his homeland.
Going beyond a record of his life and art, this book delves
into what drives an artist to create.
