The issue of script, legibility and art was the focus of the latest issue of Canvas magazine. Here is my take on it with a feature on the work of eL Seed.

Abdulqader Al Rais is one of the first Emirati’s to pursue art as a professional career and his versatile talent has served him well over his five decade career. A large international retrospective of his work is now on show in Paris.

More than 50 paintings from Abdulqader Al Rais’ long career will be shown in a major retrospective in Paris this month. It is part of the UAE’s soft power initiative, to spread awareness about the country through art and culture.
