We are delighted to announce our forthcoming exhibition in collaboration with The Alfred Basbous Foundation: Alfred Basbous, Figurative to Abstraction to be on view at Cromwell Place, London between October 11 to 17, 2021.

Alfred Basbous, was born in 1924 in Rachana, Lebanon (close to the historic city of Byblos). He was a central figure in the development and advancement of Modernism in the Middle East during the latter part of the twentieth century.

The exhibition, Figurative to Abstraction, reveals Basbous’ exploration of the relationship between form and material - from wood to metal - in addition to a preparatory drawing revealing his personal approach to sculpture.

The Alfred Basbous Foundation committee has selected works that demonstrate Basbous's artistic aesthetic, offering a glimpse into what will be shown in the Foundation in Lebanon in the future.
