Description
This landmark retrospective volume celebrates the five-decade career of Lebanese artist Jamil Molaeb. The publication meticulously curates an extensive selection of his oeuvre, including monumental paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, and etchings. Organized thematically rather than chronologically, the book explores Molaeb’s intuitive creative evolution, highlighting his rhythmic, pattern-like compositions and recurring motifs like birds, cityscapes, and village life. It features over 200 full-color reproductions, archival material, firsthand interviews, and references to the artist’s own writings to secure his place within the history of Arab modern art.
