About the work

Two figures inhabit a blazing red interior — one reclines with loose, unguarded ease while the other stands draped in dark cloth, gazing downward with a weary solemnity. The painting pulses with emotional tension, its raw brushwork and saturated reds creating an atmosphere of vulnerability and quiet confrontation.

Hakim AlAqel (Yemen, –present).

Hakim AlAqel

Yemen, b. 1965

Hakim AlAqel (حكيم العاقل), born in 1965 in Yemen, is a prominent contemporary artist recognized for his significant contributions to Yemeni and Arab visual culture. Working primarily in painting, AlAqel’s oeuvre is characterized by vibrant color palettes and expressive forms, often drawing on themes rooted in Yemeni heritage and daily life. His style blends elements of abstraction and figuration, reflecting both local traditions and broader modernist influences.

His works have also been featured in regional biennials and cultural festivals, underscoring his role in representing Yemeni art on the global stage. In the auction market, Hakim AlAqel’s paintings have appeared at major houses such as Christie’s Dubai, where his works have attracted attention from collectors interested in modern and contemporary Arab art. His sustained presence in both institutional and commercial spheres marks him as a key figure in the development of contemporary art from Yemen.
