Ali El Ghul
Untitled
1996
Ink on silk
110 x 110 cm
Influenced by architectural drawings, el Ghul began experimenting with
different pigments on silk. Skillfully bleeding the colors into each other, they
form translucent layers that serve as compositional elements, figures or
architectural spaces.
Palestinian - Jordanian painter Ali el-Ghul was a born in Jerusalem in 1938.
He studied architecture in Florence, Italy and Newcastle, UK and teaches art
and architecture at the University of Jordan in Amman. Exhibiting at various
venues internationally as far away as Melbourne Australia, el-Ghul is also a
writer, publishing a book on Arabic calligraphy amongst many other articles.
