Portfolio – A Theatre of the Imagination, Walid Marfouk

At the end of February 2018, the 1-54 fair comes to Marrakech for its first edition on the African continent. Diptyk #42 devotes a major feature to it, between the fair, satellite exhibitions and new scenes. This February–March issue also presents Walid Marfouk and his theatre of the imagination, on the cover, and Chourouk Hriech’s Japanese notebook. It looks back at Daoud Aoulad-Syad’s retrospective and gives the floor to Mahi Binebine. Reports, analyses and portfolios complete the issue.
