Haidara Mauritanian artist

Hussein Haidara in his studio
Hussein Haidara its having his first solo show on the 7th Mai at the IFM in Nouakchott. Sculptures and paintings are being shown. Haidara's materiels are recycled mostly from nature, his sculptures have as their final layers different parts of the date palm tree.
 His work turns always around the notion of evil and the capacity of men to do violence toward others for political, religious or racial motifs.

  3. Greetings Isabel. It has been much too long since I wrote to you. "Dancing In The Refugee Camps" is still my very favorite, but I am glad I had a chance to return to your blog. Believe me, everyone here on the US East Coast does not walk and Iphone at the same time! I will forward you a new e-mail address.
