Born into a line of imams, Moroccan artist Abdelkébir Rabi’ (born 1944) challenges the anti-iconic principles he has inherited, seeking to reconcile artistic fervor and spiritual fulfillment. Each black line in his paintings, often executed in a single gesture, creates a profound and spiritual work.
