New Guy Denning, by scavos on Jun 4, 2008 23:59:17 GMT 1, Available at Tunnadine. ยฃ2k.
Nakba
Oil on canvas 40cm x 40cm.
Very rich feel to this one.
"1998 marks the 50th anniversary of the Nakba (cataclysm). In human terms, that year saw the mass deportation of a million Palestinians from their cities and villages, massacres of civilians, and the razing to the ground of hundreds of Palestinian villages. In commemoration of these capital events in Palestine history, the Khalil Sakakini Cultural Center brings you this visual tribute", www.alnakba.org/ [accessed 04-06-2008]
Some of the images that may well be an inpiration for this powerful canvas...
www.hanini.org/Al-Nakbagallery.html
The photo of the girl 2nd row down third along is haunting.
www.hanini.org/images/3.jpg
And this one even more so...

I also like the colour of the Palestinian flag in the lettering; no coincidence there. I detect a great deal of passion in this piece, as with most of GD's work. Just look at those chunks of paint!

Not madness at all... Look a little deeper my friend, you might learn a thing or two about the art and yourself
If you ever have a chance to see a Denning Canvas in person you will understand why us Denning fans are so fanatical and very passionate about his work.... Not something you can get from a picture, I can guaranty if you saw this up close and in the flesh your mind would be forever changed about his work...
