Reflecting on her oeuvre, Jean-Marc Prevost writes: “The celebration of the gallery’s 40th anniversary offers a special opportunity to highlight Samia Halaby’s work. With her innovative approach to abstraction, she consistently explored new modes of expression. As early as the 1980s, she moved away from the restrictive framework of the canvas to explore digital art through her Kinetic Paintings. Their forms, sounds, colors, and rhythms reflect the present moment, social realities, and technological revolutions that have transformed our relationship to space, forcing us to reposition ourselves in radically different ways.
