Burka moderni. Un dialogo inventato con Matisse.

Intoduction

Mustafa Sabbagh, Jordanian artist with a long and prestigious journey in the fashion business as a photographer, exhibits at the MLB home gallery in conjunction with the Matisse exposition at Palazzo dei Diamanti. While Matisse creates sinuous feminine figures by enhancing colours and sensuality, Mustafa dresses men and women with pitch-black masks, heavy and plumbeous as pneumatics. In this way, in Sabbagh’s works, a bustier or a bra, which should in fact emphasize the femininity of the body, hides faces, thus becoming “contemporary burka”.
