Christie's London Holds Exhibition of Saudi’s Most Celebrated Artist
‘Ahmed Mater: Chronicle’ is the most comprehensive exhibition dedicated to the pioneering artist to date.
Christie’s is holding a landmark mid-career retrospective of the work of pioneering Saudi multi-disciplinary artist Ahmed Mater. Stretching across two floors of the world-leading art auction house’s ShowRoom in St James’ London, the exhibition, titled "Ahmed Mater: Chronicles' will run until 22 August.
Curated by Dr. Ridha Moumni, Chairman of Christie’s Middle East and Africa, the exhibition traces Ahmed Mater’s career and the evolution of his distinctive artistic practice.
Mater’s work is impressively eclectic, spanning painting and video-photography to sculpture and visual installation, and constantly evolving. However, central to his practice is documenting the profound changes that have convulsed and shaped his native Saudi Arabia and the wider Arab world.
