Bassmi Ibrahim, b 1941, Egypt.

“Born in Cairo in 1941, Bassmi Ibrahim’s aesthetic education began at home with his father, who was devoted to photography. At school, Bassmi’s talent was recognized at 14 by an art teacher, who for the next seven years instructed him privately both in traditional techniques and in “how to feel and think as an artist”.

Bassmi went on to study at Ain Shams University, receiving his BA degree in art in 1963. In 1965, awakening early one morning with his mind clear and open, Bassmi realized a need to paint from his inner self. What followed was an outpouring of 150 small ink wash images, that connected the observable and the subconscious.

This approach, which the artist calls, “painting from my gut and not my mind”, would prove basic to Bassmi’s art.“
