The iconic Dutch artist was born in the Netherlands in 1853, Lebanese-American artist and writer Adnan was born in French-mandated Beirut 72 years later. He was temporarily a rural priest, she a cultural editor. His life ended at 37, whereas she started painting at 34.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">This rare artistic duo is being explored in a new exhibition at Amsterdam\u2019s Van Gogh Museum highlighting the storied career of Adnan, who died aged 96 in Paris in 2021. It\u2019s the first time that a retrospective of hers has been showcased in the Netherlands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cColor as Language\u201d presents an impressive selection of 70 of Adnan\u2019s artworks from private and public collections, dating from the 1960s onwards, along with 10 museum paintings by Van Gogh.\u00a0It runs until September 4.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">A philosopher at heart, Adnan continued to paint until her final days, creating a colorful inner world where shapes and colors intertwine, cultivating visually attractive, abstract landscapes on small canvases. The show emphasizes what inspired her most throughout her life: Nature.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.arabnews.com\/sites\/default\/files\/userimages\/445491\/etel_adnan_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"817\" height=\"1200\" data-wp-editing=\"1\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Etel Adnan. (Supplied)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">In the mid-1950s, Adnan relocated to California, where she famously painted several compositions of Mount Tamalpais.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cOne day, they asked me: \u2018Who is the most important person that you ever met?\u2019 and I said: \u2018It was a mountain,\u2019\u201d Adnan once said. \u201cI discovered that it\u2019s never two minutes the same. When a cloud goes in front of the sun, it\u2019s as if somebody put off a light, and everything changes. So, you realize that we are in a constant change, in turmoil. There is no total rest, not only for us, but for the world. Nature is constantly changing like we do.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Van Gogh also expressed a deep love of nature, executed with his signature style of bold brushstrokes and thick contouring. Adnan first encountered his work while studying at the Sorbonne in Paris during the 1950s, and she was enthralled by his intense manner of painting, tapping into his hidden emotions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cI think it touches people \u2014 there is something emotional about them, and I sense that when I look at a work by Van Gogh, but also when I look at a painting by Adnan,\u201d the exhibition\u2019s curator Sara Tas told Arab News. \u201cIf you really look at it and you let it sort of come in, it touches something within you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Tas met Adnan in 2020. \u201cWhen she writes or when she talks, every word is spot on,\u201d she recalled. \u201cShe\u2019s not wasting anything. And I think that\u2019s also what she\u2019s doing with paintings. It\u2019s very simple but everything is to the point.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Adnan, who also wrote novels, poems, and plays, regarded Van Gogh as a man of words, known for his correspondence with family and friends.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<figure class=\"image\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.arabnews.com\/sites\/default\/files\/userimages\/445491\/etel_adnan_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" \/><\/span><figcaption><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cColor as Language\u201d presents an impressive selection of 70 of Adnan\u2019s artworks from private and public collections. (Supplied)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cTo a degree, Van Gogh writes on his canvas, he is writing a landscape,\u201d observed Adnan. Van Gogh might have thought the same of Adnan, going by something he wrote in 1888: \u201cOne can speak poetry just by arranging colors well.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Adnan believed that\u00a0\u201ccolors make visible what the person is trying to say, but silently.\u201d In her imaginative work, a mountain can be bright red or green, with patches of blue, pink, and yellow. She demonstrates color\u2019s profound ability to enhance a natural setting, whether serene or turbulent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Across the show\u2019s two floors, there are a few instances where two landscapes by Van Gogh and Adnan are paired, highlighting a similar use of palette and layout. But by no means is this supposed to encourage comparison, Tas stresses. \u201cI did not want to say, \u2018Look how Etel Adnan was influenced by Van Gogh,\u2019 because that would not do her justice,\u201d she explained. \u201cIt is really her show, but with connections to Van Gogh, in the context of our museum.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">What also links the artists is the fact that both of them achieved popularity late in the game. Talented though she was, Adnan only became a household name in the art world in her eighties. Van Gogh, meanwhile, was famously undervalued while he was alive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cFor Van Gogh, making visual art was the main thing in his life. He felt like he needed to do it. It\u2019s not like he was completely unknown \u2014 he was appreciated by many of his peers \u2014 but the fame came after his death,\u201d said Tas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cIt\u2019s (similar) with Etel. She was just working and she had a circle of friends around her. She sold paintings, but not on a big scale. It was only after her presentation at Documenta that the international art world really picked up on it. Suddenly, she got exhibitions in Qatar, Istanbul, Paris, New York, San Francisco\u2026 And now in Amsterdam.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-title padding-horizontal-for-small\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<h1><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Retrospective of US-Lebanese artist Etel Adnan opens in Amsterdam\u2019s Van Gogh Museum<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">www.arabnews.com<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-media\">\n<div class=\"media-slider slick-loading-area slick-initialized slick-slider\">\n<div class=\"slick-list draggable\">\n<div class=\"slick-track\">\n<div class=\"slick-slide slick-current slick-active\" data-slick-index=\"0\" aria-hidden=\"false\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"slider-item\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.alowais.com\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">alowais<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/www.alowaisbooks.com\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">alowais books<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What do Vincent van Gogh and Etel Adnan have in common?
