Lulwah Al Homoud & Rafa Nasiri | Discover Arab Artists – The Misk Art Library Podcast
In this episode of The Misk Art Library Podcast Series, we sit down with two experts on art in the Arab world: Lulwah Al Homoud, an artist featured in the Misk Art Library series, and Dr. Nada Shabout, who speaks about the work of Iraqi artist Rafa Nasiri. We discuss Nasiri's legacy as a pioneer of Iraqi art ( delving into printmaking), the evolution of contemporary Arab art, and the role of spirituality and identity in the artists’ work. Lulwah Al Homoud shares her personal journey as an artist and her admiration for Nasiri's generous spirit. Dr. Shabout provides insight into the "New Vision" collective and the historical context of terms like "hurufiyya" ( حروفية ) and "textual abstraction."
