Overview

In 1982, Drian Galleries, London presented The Art of Basil Alkazzi (1962–1982) , the artist’s first major retrospective. Spanning two decades of work, the exhibition brought together key developments across Alkazzi’s practice, marking a moment of consolidation and critical recognition. Accompanied by a catalogue essay by Max Wykes-Joyce, the exhibition situates Alkazzi within a broader discourse of contemporary painting while signalling a transition toward the more expansive and metaphysical concerns that would come to define his later work.
