[Ahmed CHERKAOUI]
Edmond Amran El Maleh, Abdelkebir Khatibi and Toni Maraini. The Painting of Ahmed Cherkaoui. Casablanca, Shoof Publications, 1976.
Italian format (24.5 x 28 cm), full cloth hardback, stamped and gilded drawings by the artist on the first and fourth covers, with dust jacket, 193 pp, 89 illustrations of works in colour and black. Photography, layout, production and coordination by Mohamed Melehi. Calligraphy by Brahim Hanine. In French, English and Arabic.
The first monograph to be published on Ahmed Cherkaoui, bringing together a biography, personal accounts, a bibliography and a table of illustrations. The book brings together three of the most important voices in Moroccan thought and art criticism at the time, and entrusts its visual production to Mohamed Melehi, co-founder with Cherkaoui of the Casablanca School.
This was the first title published by Shoof Publications, a publishing house founded in 1974 by Mohamed Melehi, whose stated ambition was to "fill a void and respond to the need for information in the field of painting and the plastic arts in Morocco".
