OverviewThe ninth and tenth volumes of The Art Library, a pioneering art volumes series that documents the most important modern and contemporary Arab artists. These gorgeously designed volumes offer an informal, yet detailed introduction to the most prominent figures of Arab art. The collection is characterized by medium-size books, each one dedicated to a single artist, richly illustrated, and rigorously documented. The publications, presented in English and Arabic editions, are launched seasonally, in spring and fall, two by two, in a sophisticated cardboard slipcase. Each slipcase presents a Saudi artist alongside a non-Saudi artist.
