{"title":"Chaibia Talal","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn in 1929 in the Doukkala region, Chaïbia Talal never went to school. Married very young and widowed at fifteen with a son, Hossein, she earned a living through modest work before taking up painting in the early 1960s, after a dream she would describe for the rest of her life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHer painting looks like no one else's: pure colour straight from the tube, broad flat areas outlined in black, frontal figures with huge eyes. She painted the Moroccan countryside of her childhood, brides, musicians, festivals and fantasias, with total freedom and a great deal of humour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNoticed in the mid-1960s by the painter Ahmed Cherkaoui and the critic Pierre Gaudibert, she was soon exhibiting in Europe, where her work was compared to art brut and the CoBrA movement. She died in Casablanca in 2004 and is now one of the most sought-after figures in Moroccan art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDo you own a work by Chaïbia Talal?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe gallery can examine it: \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/estimation\"\u003erequest a valuation\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/revente\"\u003econsign it for sale\u003c\/a\u003e at ARTWORKS in Casablanca.
