Nicholas Moufarraghe: Recognize My Sign

Exhibition October 6, 2019 − February 16, 2020
Nicholas Mufarrage (1947-1985) was an artist and writer born in Alexandria, Egypt. During his career, which lasted a little over ten years, he created original and peculiar embroidered paintings.

"Admit my sign"- the artist’s first personal museum exhibition - traces the development of his work from large-scale portrait tapestries, which he began to do in the early 1970s, to the last works that he created while living in New York between 1980 and 1985. This exhibition provides the opportunity to rediscover the materially and conceptually compelling work of a special creative force, whose results today are extremely relevant and resonant.
