About the work

Four stylised veiled figures stand side by side against a vivid patchwork of orange, yellow, green, and blue geometric shapes, their dark forms etched with intricate linear patterns. A dense border of Arabic script frames the composition, grounding the work in a rich cultural and narrative tradition.

About the artist

Mahmoud Shahin — Silkscreen On Paper, 25 × 16 cm (representative image)
Mahmoud Shahin

Palestine, b. 1946

Mahmoud Shahin (محمود شاهين), born in 1946 in Palestine, is a contemporary artist recognized for his contributions to Palestinian visual arts. His work spans painting and sculpture, often reflecting themes of heritage, identity, and the lived experience of the Palestinian people. Shahin’s style is characterized by expressive forms and a vivid color palette, drawing on both modernist influences and traditional motifs from his homeland.

Shahin’s art has been exhibited in prominent cultural institutions across the Middle East, including solo and group exhibitions in Palestine and neighboring countries. His works have been featured in significant exhibitions at venues such as the Palestinian Museum and have contributed to the broader discourse on Palestinian art and culture. While his pieces are sought after in regional collections, there is no verified record of sales at major international auction houses such as Christie’s, Sotheby’s, or Bonhams as of the latest available data.

Throughout his career, Mahmoud Shahin has remained deeply connected to his roots, using his artistic practice to document and interpret the complexities of Palestinian identity. His enduring presence in the art scene underscores his role as a vital figure in the narrative of contemporary Palestinian art.

Expressionism

Art that prioritizes emotion and inner experience over realistic depiction, using distortion, bold color, and energetic mark-making. In the region it gave modern artists a language for memory, displacement, and identity.
