The publication offers a comprehensive overview of the impact of the Casablanca Art School. The main protagonists, Farid Belkahia, Mohammed Chabâa, Bert Flint, Toni Maraini, and Mohamed Melehi, together with students, teachers, and associated artists, feature in the book with a large number of works. In addition, the catalogue explores the efforts to open up to local history and changing social realities. These aspects are explored in more detail in an essay by Fatima-Zahra Lakrissa on Morocco's vernacular artistic heritage and an examination of the role and significance of public space by Maud Houssais.As founders of the Zamân Books & Curating platform, Morad Montazami and Madeleine de Colnet explore the counter-narratives of visual modernism in Arab, African, and Asian arenas. Esther Schlicht is deputy director of the SCHIRN Kunsthalle Frankfurt. Fatima-Zahra Lakrissa and Maud Houssais are independent researchers and curators.
