Nu- 9 (2002) Painting by Yakzan Atassi

French of Syrian origin

Yakzan Atassi is a Franco-Syrian artist born in 1950. After a childhood immersed in oriental plastic culture (calligraphy, carpets, architecture...), decorator for television and assistant of fine arts in Damascus, he arrived in Paris in 1981. The clash of cultures will remain decisive in his artistic career. In Paris, he had his first solo exhibitions (as part of MAC 2000 at the Grand Palais) and began a prolific career. It remains to this day in private collections and exhibits in France and abroad.
