Yassine Balbzioui is the trickster of the art world. He brings anarchy with his chaos-cosmos: Brushstrokes, movements, screams and screens make the world tremble and shake. He dismisses the concept of a stable identity. Identity is to rent. For the first time, this publication brings together the whole oeuvre of Yassine Balbzioui, one of the most interesting contemporary artists, based in Morocco. The diversity of his works spans from painting and watercolours to performance works, porcelain and tapestry. A number of texts written by Raimi Gbadamosi, Farouk El Maarouf, Sarah Dornhof, Sophie Eliot, Matteo Rubbi and others reflect on these different media, which are all manifestations of Yassine Balbzioui’s sparkling creativity.
