Aïcha HADDAD (Bordj-Bou-Arreridj 1937 - Alger 2005)

Bouquet of roses Oil on canvas 61 x 50 cm Signed lower right *** Oil on canvas Signed lower right Provenance : Private collection, France. Aïcha Haddad, nicknamed the "Moudjahida", is an Algerian painter and visual artist. Her artistic path is part of the Algerian miniaturist tradition, which was given a new lease of life by Mohammed Racim, founder of the Algiers School of Illumination in 1939, and to whom Aïcha Haddad owes a deep admiration. Her travels introduced her to Western painting (cubism, symbolism and new realism). In 1962, she began studying art with Camille Leroy at the Société des Beaux Arts d'Alger. From 1966 to 1988, Aïcha Haddad pursued a long career teaching art at the Lycée Omar-Racim in Algiers. In 1972, she exhibited her work for the first time at the former Galerie des Quatre-Colonnes in Algiers and won a prize in the Concours de la Ville d'Alger, which opened the doors to her reputation. It was also the start of a long friendship with painters Baya and Souhila Bel Bahar. Between 1974 and 2002, he held a succession of solo and group exhibitions in Algeria and abroad. During her travels and visits to museums, galleries and international art fairs, she discovered multiple modes of expression and artists who played a decisive role in the development of her art: Gaudi, Tinguely, Niki de Saint Phalle, César, Arman, Peï. Her works are held in private collections, as well as in Algiers, at the Musée National des Beaux-Arts d'Alger and the Musée National du Bardo, the FAO headquarters in Rome, the UNICEF headquarters in Paris and the Japan Foundation headquarters in Tokyo. *** Aïcha Haddad, nicknamed the "Moudjahida", is an Algerian painter and visual artist.
