Saudi Arabian artist Abdulrahim Turkistan, who has studied communications engineering and works as a business professional in The Netherlands, follows evening classes at the Royal Academy of Art in The Haguer and will give us a talk about his work and experience as an artist. On show is one of his works from a series named Atlas, acquired by the museum in June, and inspired by the city and region of Kashgar in present day western China from where the artist's family emigrated to Saudi Arabia.
