David Daoud (Libano, Beirut, 1970) Chemin vers la citadelle, 2023 Oil on canvas 80 x 80 cm
David Daoud is a Lebanese artist, draughtsman and sculptor, born in Beirut in 1970. He left Lebanon with his family in 1978 due to the civil war (1975-90) and moved to France.
In 2011, he was awarded the prestigious 1st Frédéric de Carfort Prize of the Fondation de France pour la Peinture. He painted the fourteen Stations of the Cross in the church of Saint-Rémi de Marines and three others in the church of Saint-Gildard, Longuesse (Ile de France).
In his production the artist explores the themes of exile, migration and diaspora, having personally experienced the decision to leave Lebanon behind and the consequent organisation of a new life in a different country. He also analyses the personal and global history of human beings and contemporary societies, considered, as they are, complex organisms. His works often present a dreamlike, mysterious and magical world, which is at the same time a representation of reality.
Daoud's works can be found in several collections, including: the Institute du Monde Arabe in Paris, the Museum of Prehistory in Beirut, the Town Hall of Marines, Vexin (France) and Isle-Adam (France).
This painting could depict a corner of the Middle East and the human figures could be believers climbing a hill to reach a mosque or church to perform their prayers.
