More about the book
For more than twenty years, Aline Thomassen has been fascinated by the psychological landscape that Morocco represents for her; a landscape with which she identifies as if it were in her own DNA. In her solo exhibition 'Cherchez la femme', Thomassen adds a new chapter to the steadily growing visual epic that is driven by her existential experiences in Morocco. Besides 40 portraits of young Moroccan men, the exhibition includes a new series of monumental paintings of women, which radiate power and pride. Just as depicted women's tough self-confidence appears to be fuelled by deep human impulses and intuition, so the artist's hand appears to be driven by an inner necessity that shies away from any preconceived rational decision. Exhibition: Bonnefantenmuseum, Maastricht, The Netherlands (07.11.2014-08.02.2015).
