GREEN ART Gallery opened its Fall 2011 program with a solo exhibition for the acclaimed Syrian painter Ahmad Moualla, presenting a new body of large scale paintings. Marking the artist’s third solo exhibition at the Gallery, the exhibition opened on September 19th and will be on view until November 10th 2011.
Ahmad Moualla (b. 1958), a Syrian artist based in Damascus, has become well known for his beautifully-painted and highly dramatic canvases. Composed on a grand scale, Moualla’s theatrical paintings wrestle with the often strained relationship between society and the individual; his works tackle the power of past and present icons through the increased blurring of the line between reality and fiction, and the conscious and subconscious mind.
Born in Syria in 1958, Moualla is considered to be one of the leading post-modern artists in Syrian expressionism. He was the first to introduce performance in his work, first exhibited at Atassi Gallery in 1997 with the exhibition entitled “A tribute to Saadallah Wannaous” ( the late Syrian playwright). Moualla graduated from the Damascus University of Fine Arts followed by the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux Arts in Paris. Since then he has participated in various exhibitions in Dubai, Cairo, Paris, Istanbul and Graz (Austria) among others. Recent exhibitions include “Signs: Contemporary Arab Art” at Sundaram Tagore Gallery, New York (2009) and “New works” at Green Art Gallery Dubai (2009).
