Tangeri Mon Amour


Her name is Yto Barrada, class 1971 and she has been nominated Artist of The Year. She fascinated me recently. Her images open the book “May I Introduce You? A Guide to creative talents” curated by Ginevra Elkann e realized with the support of Stefanel brand.Yto Barrada will also be at Biennale in Venice this year and will reprensent Illuminations with her fascinating art work called The Telephone Books. Yto Barrada’s work reflects the particular situation of her hometown, Tangier, Morocco, at the intersection of Arab, African and European cultures.
