Description
Youssef Aoun is a Lebanese painter and printmaker. Born in 1965, he studied at the Lebanese University and the Beaux-Arts de Paris. He has been teaching since 1991 at Académie Libanaise des Beaux-Arts in Alba.
Youssef Aoun, who claims to be a “son of the war”, recognizes the influences of Francis Bacon, Pablo Picasso and Antoni Tapies. His paintings, which are formally abstract, are filled with symbols, materials and forms that evoke parts of the human body.
Youssef Aoun's work is permanently shown in Gallery Claudine Legrand (Paris) and at the National Museum (Dubai), as well as in several public and private collections including the Sursock Museum (Beirut) and the Audi Bank (Beirut). He is the recipient of many awards, including the Dorothy Salhab Kazemi Prize for Young Artists at Sursock Museum’s Salon d’Automne and the Sharjah Biennial Jury Prize.
