Published by Louvre Abu Dhabi in collaboration with France Museums and Centre
Pompidou, this exhibition catalogue examines how certain 20th century artists
strove to establish a new visual language by merging text and image. Largely
in response to a rapidly changing society, these artists looked towards
eastern traditions and broke away from figurative conventions. Following the
development of abstraction and how artists were inspired by early forms of
writing, particularly calligraphy, the book is a rare opportunity to explore
the work of modern masters such as Henri Matisse, Paul Klee, Joan Miró, Lee
Ufan, Dia Azzawi, Lee Krasner and Jackson Pollock, alongside contemporary
pieces and monumental calligraffiti by Mona Hatoum, eL Seed and Ghada Amer.
