EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the introspective gaze of Hisham Matar, a Libyan writer, as he sits against a plain backdrop in Barcelona, Spain, in 2007. Born in 1970 in New York City to Libyan parents, Matar spent his formative years in Tripoli before being exiled during the Libyan Revolution in 1992. He now resides in London, England. Barcelona, a vibrant cultural hub in Catalonia, Spain, serves as an intriguing backdrop for this photograph. The city's rich history and diverse influences are reflected in Matar's literary works, which explore themes of identity, exile, and the complexities of the human condition. The photograph captures the essence of Matar's thoughtful and introspective nature, as he ponders the complexities of his own identity as a Libyan writer living in exile. The muted colors and soft lighting of the image further emphasize the contemplative mood. Matar's literary contributions to European and Middle Eastern literature have earned him critical acclaim, and his works have been translated into multiple languages. This portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the power of literature to transcend borders and connect people from diverse backgrounds. The photograph also highlights the rich cultural exchange between Europe and the Middle East, as well as the importance of Catalonia as a hub for cultural expression and intellectual discourse. Overall, this portrait of Hisham Matar in Barcelona is a beautiful and thought-provoking representation of the intersection of literature, culture, and identity.
