ABDUL HADI EL-GAZZAR (1925-1965)

"Let me live in the world of magic I admire. I do not want to know what things are. Knowledge renders life unbearable. This is because the interpretation of knowledge is attainable in the subconscious alone. We are destined to appreciate knowledge in its entirety because we are an inseparable part of the gestalt knowledge."
(Abdul Hadi El-Gazzar)

Abdul Hadi El-Gazzar is among the most important of all Egyptian artists and perhaps the most inventive.  Although he died when young, his astonishing diverse works of the 1950s and 1960s are amongst the most compelling images of twentieth century Middle Eastern art.
