18:45 – 19:15 Talk: Modernist Pioneers in Sculpture
Sophia Contemporary Gallery is proud to present the works of Alfred Basbous (1924 – 2006). A Major pioneer of Modernist sculpture in the Middle East, Basbous drew on the influence of Jean Arp, Constain Brancusi and Henry Moore to create stone and bronze sculptures. Similarly, to Arp and Moore, many of Basbous sculptures resemble an elongated morphing body. However, the prevalence on facial features appear very reminiscent of Brancusi.
