Salah El-Mur (Sudanese, born 1966)
Family day out signed and dated 'S.ELMUR.2016' (lower left)acrylic on canvas 89 x 119cm (35 1/16 x 46 7/8in).
|Family day out was recently exhibited in the exhibition Forests and Spirits: Figurative Art from the Khartoum School at the Saatchi Gallery. It depicts a family outing to the Sunut Forest; one of the few remaining urban forests in Sudan, it lies at the confluence of the White and Blue Nile. It is an popular leisure site for Khartoum's residents and an important educational resource for the city's schools.The figures are delineated in a flat, naive style using bold blocks of colour. This technique is a result of El Mur's early training as an illustrator. His illustrations feature in 35 children's books that have been published in Arabic, French, Italian and Spanish. Previous to the show at Saatchi, a retrospective of Elmur's work was exhibited at the Sharjah Art Museum in 2018. His works can be found in numerous private and public collections including the Museum of African Contemporary Art Al Maaden (MACAAL).
