Inhaltsangabe

Amir Nave's work oscillates between drawing, painting, and sculpture. He focuses on the human being, which he executes in an obsessive, spiritual, or even mystical manner. His “creatures” are figures sometimes depicted as a body, a head, or an entity. They draw on deeply buried pasts as well as possible futures. Even if some of his works are reminiscent of classics of art history and mythology, Nave refutes the idea of a painterly representation of life. In his take on the story of Moharamia, the artist tells of a revelation that appeared to the mortal Moharamia at the River of Jordan. Through his drawings, paintings, and the sculptural form he has constructed, he renders this tale into a reflection on occultism, the supernatural, and metaphysical questions. This first comprehensive monograph presents the most significant works by Amir Nave from the past decade.
