Saad Hassani is an emblematic artist of his generation, with an edifying track record. After years of discovery on the European continent, Saad returns to his native land and settles in Casablanca. The style of the artist has undergone various changes throughout his career. He tried his hand at different styles: a bit expressionist, then figurative before adopting a singular pictorial touch using the erasing technique. This succession of layers of colors that are added on top of each other, makes one pattern disappear to reveal another.
In addition, his research on movement, the depth of color and its variations allowed him to give his paintings relief and a vibratory force.
