With backing from the Embassy of Brazil in Rabat, artworks by the Salvador, Bahia-born painter and sculptor will be featured at Le Casablanca Hot\u00eal, in Casablanca, from Wednesday (28) until April 11. Admission is free.<\/p>\n<p>Exhibition\u00a0<em>Transculturalit\u00e9 et Brassage<\/em> (Transculturality and Creation) is organized by the Brazilian-born, Moroccan-based Ana Claudia Bourquin. \u201cMenelaw has come at my invitation,\u201d the producer said. \u201cThis is his first time in Morocco.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ana Claudia found out about the work of Menelaw Sete a few years ago and was impressed with his strong lines and colors. \u201cHe is a multiple artist when it comes to conception. At once you find traces of [Moroccan painter] Cha\u00efbia Talal, [of French artist Henri] Matisse, [of also-French Paul] Gauguin and [of Spain\u2019s Pablo] Picasso,\u201d Bourquin explains.<\/p>\n<p>According to her, being a contemporary artist whose work conveys an Afro-Brazilian identity, Menelaw fits into the exhibition\u2019s theme of transculturality. The 24-piece showing pays tribute to Cha\u00efbia Talal, a Moroccan painting icon according to Bourquin.<\/p>\n<p>Menelaw Sete\u2019s career spans almost 30 years, and his art has been featured in France, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, Denmark, England and the United States, in over fifty international exhibits. He is also known as the \u201cBrazilian Picasso,\u201d according to his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Menelaw7\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook profile<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The Embassy of Brazil in Rabat provided full cultural and institutional support to the exhibit.
