Dubai: Art is breaking free into a new outpouring of form and feel as steel meets print at A La Steel in a new exhibit formed by the hands of master craftsmen and artists, say officials at the Mozaiic Art Gallery, Dubai.
Few discoveries have impacted civilisations as much as steel and print — although the two elements differ vastly in application. While one evolved into a steadfast symbol of strength and power, the other ushered in the era of enlightenment — bringing ideas, cultures and nations closer together through the power of print.
In the new exhibition, be it calligraphy, digital paint, etching, photography or screen printing, the Mozaiic Art Gallery said it has lent every piece of work a style so different that many have been rated as the first of their kinds, and won them distinctive recognition and admiration.
“A work of art, I believe, should be a spontaneous blend of the mind and the medium, enriched by the colours of the imagination,” Gallery MD and associated artist, Maher Aboul Housn said.
“Every piece of art in our collection, every small detail, is carefully designed and crafted, simply to celebrate the Print Art. It is the path we’ve chosen, and it is heartening to see more and more artists joining us to continue the explorations…”
Cumai Aboul Housn, associated artist, said: “The medium is an essential part of the artwork, it completes and nurtures the subject residing in the artist’s imagination.”
