PROVENANCE
Originally purchased from the artist's brother in the Canary Islands.
ARTIST INFORMATION
Born in the Medina in Marrakesh, Morocco in 1959, Mahi was deeply affected by his childhood. He would later write of some of the people he encountered as a child as ill-fortuned ”and left footsore by life.” Mahi moved to France as a young adult to study mathematics at the University of Paris at Jussieu. After working in Paris as an mathematics teacher, Mahi began devoting himself to writing and painting. Within a relatively short period Binebine wrote six novels, which have been translated into various languages. Many argue that his paintings, however, provide the more visceral framing of his ideas. Hauntingly dreamlike, his paintings often depict shadowy silhouettes of humans forms emerging from red and blue backgrounds. Suggesting both the fragility and power of humans, particularly women, his paintings hold an important place in contemporary Moroccan and North African art. His fame has gone beyond the boundaries of Morocco and he is exposed in galleries globally.

White Court Art specialise in high quality British and European Fine Art. We are passionate about art, and the pieces we offer reflect this. Most of the paintings are by high quality, listed artists.

We are constantly searching for new talent and quality pieces to offer our clients. We endeavour to provide a friendly, efficient and safe forum to enable you to acquire fine art online. Our company was formed in 2006.

ITEM INFORMATION & TERMINOLOGY
Every item we sell is fully guaranteed to be as we describe. We use the same cataloguing terms as most major auction houses The cataloguing terms that we use have the following meanings
1. where the text which forms reads "'by" and is followed by the artist's full name (or the artist's initials, if his full name is unrecorded), the work is in our opinion by the artist
2. where the expression "attributed to" is used, the work is in our opinion possibly a work by the artist, in whole or in part
3. where the expression "'circle of'" is used, the work is in our opinion a work of the period of the artist and showing his influence
4. where the expression "'follower of"' is used, the work is in our opinion a work executed in the artist's style but not necessarily by a pupil
5. where the expression '"manner of"' is used, the work is in our opinion a work executed in the artist's style but of a later date
6. where the term "after" is used, the work is in our opinion a copy or pastiche (of any date) of a work by the artist.
7. Where the term 'signed...' is used in our opinion the work has been signed by the artist, where the term 'with signature...' or 'bears signature...' is used in our opinion the signature is by a hand other than that of the artist.
