The Arab World Institute brings together 80 works by this painter from colonial Algeria. He was adored and execrated, rejected and claimed, abandoned and sought after.
From Algiers to Tamanrasset, some of his paintings appear reproduced on postage stamps. For all these reasons, this artist, to whom the Institute devotes its work, is still considered a national treasure in the Arab world.
