The first high-end volume published on the traditional costumes of Saudi Arabia, with authentic and previously unpublished artworks and documentation from the acclaimed Darat Safeya Binzagr collection.
Considered the “founding mother” of Saudi Arabia’s fine art movement, Safeya Binzagr has forged a precious and unique path of opportunity and creative development for many artists, especially young women who have followed in her footsteps. As a national cultural icon, she is a respected painter, collector, and textile researcher, and one of only two female artists to ever hold an art exhibition in Saudi Arabia in 1968, as well as the very first internationally exhibited Saudi artist.
In 2000, Binzagr opened the Darat Safeya Binzagr, which houses the artist’s entire oeuvre as well as her private collection of traditional artifacts, textiles, and costumes, with meticulously documented information accumulated over the decades.
