Description

Mazen Rifai (Lebanese, b. 1957) is an accomplished artist and architect renowned for his ability to infuse luminosity into his landscapes. His small-scale paintings, often inspired by his hometown of Baalbek, showcase his distinctive thick impasto technique. Rifai studied Interior Design and Architecture at the Lebanese University, later earning a degree in Fine Arts from the Accademia di Macerata in Italy. His architectural background profoundly influences his painting practice, which he describes as beginning always with a place. Characterised by rigorous construction and a focus on structural simplicity, his works are devoid of superficial elements, reflecting a deep connection to their origins.
