Chaouki Choukini
1946
Chaouki Choukini (b. 1946, Lebanon)'s distinctive, multiscalar sculptures in exotic hardwoods and bronze function as windows to his childhood and the landscape of South Lebanon. Tensions between corners, edges and cubist elements, juxtaposed with softly layered biomorphic forms are central to his oeuvre, along with references to Japanese minimalist aesthetics.
