Abdullah Qandeel “The Scrutineer”
Judith Charles Gallery
This event has ended.
About the artist:
Saudi Arabian artist Abdullah Qandeel creates passionate and unapologetic abstract paintings. Through bold use of line and color, Qandeel illustrates the coalescing of Saudi traditional norms and the vastly changing cultural landscape of the Arab world.
Since 2011, the artist has exhibited in New York, Monte Carlo and Jeddah, gaining critical acclaim and popularity. In 2012, Qandeel was requested by the Saudi Arabian Mission to the UN to exhibit as a solo artist at the Waldorf Astoria, New York. The event was in celebration of Saudi Arabia’s National Day where one of his paintings was presented by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as a gift to the US Ambassador to the UN.
