Description: "The creative subtlety employed by Mohamed El baz in his installations is equalled only by the intellectual energy that drives him. From a corpus of images, objects, constructions and appropriations, he invents and extraordinary polyphonic universe. An imaginative relationship fuels much of his work, which melds with his existence as an artist and knowledge of the social, economic and political contexts in which he operates. Beyond a deterritorialized world, he gradually develops work constructed for others."--Page 4 of cover.
