Thaier Helal: Liberated Spatiality

From June 10th till August 5th 2010, Ayyam Gallery Beirut will proudly present Liberated Spatiality, the solo show of Syrian artist Thaier Helal. Featuring an impressive new body of work from one of the Arab world’s most sought-after abstract painters, the exhibition will highlight Helal’s recent explorations into the energy, shape and movement created by massive gatherings or large bodies of people or objects. Taking inspiration from such events as religious ceremonies or political demonstrations, he taps into the visual impact of these forms as singular units come together to make an imposing whole. These exciting new experiments further the cutting edge techniques that Helal has become known for.
