Georges Bassil's Art Exhibition, April 13th @ 6pm until May 6th 2010
Artist: Georges Bassil (Lebanon)
Georges Bassil and the Eternal Power of Being… Indifferent to viewer’s stare and close scrutiny, Georges Bassil’s paintings stand naked and lonely – not always alone – for all to see, judge and value for what they are, no explanation required.
But judgment is not something either the painter or his faithful subjects worry about; they exist, with or without you, in a world of their own. They sometimes stare with big round dark eyes, ones that seem to know something you don’t and are not about to unveil it at any price. Other times, they just stand there, seemingly indifferent to anyone and everything that passes them by, while in fact providing a constant reminder that art doesn’t always have to shout out controversy or a definite state of being, it can simply whisper it while you attempt to formulate words to describe just exactly what it is you are feeling in its presence.
It is in these quiet moments, moments that have been experienced and widely acclaimed at Montreal, London, Nice, Dubai, Beirut, and soon in Amman, starting April 13-May 6th, at Orient Gallery, that Georges Bassil communicates the eternal, and somewhat weightless, power of being and leaves you all but speechless.
