Mahi Binebine (Morocco, born 1959) Untitled
Provenance : Provenance: Property from a private collection, Paris Mahi Binebine is a painter, sculptor and writer. Born in 1959 in Marrakech, he grew up during the reign of Hassan II. He lived in Paris and New York before returning to settle in Morocco. His pictorial work, centred on the human figure, evokes the violence and tensions of the Eastern and Western worlds and the tragic situation of human beings. A major painter of his generation, internationally known for his monumental paintings, Mahi Binebine constantly explores the issue of humanity and extreme conditions. His figures, reduced to silhouettes, intertwining and colliding bodies, are locked in but undefeated. They inhabit a hostile and troubling world. Of great plastic beauty, rich in tension and confrontation, the work of Binebine evokes loneliness and despair, but also harmony and joy. Exhibited in particular in Morocco, France, New York, Germany and the United States, his work has been noticed by important art critics and major collectors and is part of many public and private collections, including that of the Guggenheim Museum of New York, the Bank Al Maghrib Museum, the Kinda Foundation, the Marrakech Museum and the Kamel Lazaar Foundation.
