KHALID FARHAN
Recent Works

16 May

Bin Matar House
Bahrain
IN HIS latest exhibition at the Shaikh Ebrahim Center in Muharraq, Bahrain, Khalid Farhan presents a selection of sculptures in brass and bronze, ranging from small, hand-size pieces to forms that are over one metre high. The use of highly polished brass sphere and half-sphere bases sets up an irresistable contrast with the textured bronze section of Farhan's sculptures, asking the viewers to renew their gaze again and again.

The young artist's three dimensional works were complemented by a new series of delicate works on paper - a visionary twist by Bahrain's most promising artist.
