Ibrahim El-Salahi
Sudanese visual artist and former public servant
Ibrahim El-Salahi (Arabic: إبراهيم الصلحي, born 5 September 1930) is a Sudanese painter, former public servant and diplomat.
He is one of the foremost visual artists of the Khartoum School,[1] considered as part of African Modernism[2] and the pan-ArabicHurufiyya art movement, that combined traditional forms of Islamic calligraphy with contemporary artworks.[3] On the occasion of the Tate Modern gallery's first retrospective exhibition of a contemporary artist from Africa in 2013, El-Salahi's work was characterized as "a new Sudanese visual vocabulary, which arose from his own pioneering integration of Islamic, African, Arab and Western artistic traditions."[4]
Early life
Ibrahim El-Salahi was born on 5 September 1930 in El-Abbasyia, a neighborhood of Omduran, Sudan, to a Muslim family and is considered to be one of the most important contemporary African artists.
