| Summary: | This is the first retrospective monograph on artist Rashid Al Khalifa. Sheikh Rashid bin Khalifa Al Khalifa is a member of the Bahraini royal family and the cofounder, first president, and current honorary president of the Bahrain Arts Society. He has painted for more than forty-five years across various genres, and his art practice has evolved into his current dual-concept work between abstraction and sculpture, using a precise color field. Rashid Al Khalifa is one of the most important artists working in the Kingdom of Bahrain, and he is a renowned patron of the arts, with an abiding passion and discerning eye for color and design. His generosity, vision, and dynamism have had a significant impact on Bahrain's contemporary-art scene and its integration in the rest of the world. Rashid initiated the creation of Art Bahrain in 2010, which has sponsored a variety of cultural initiatives, art exhibitions, and educational projects, locally, regionally, and internationally. |
