During the opening ceremony, IBC Chairman and members toured the exhibition with artist Nabil Ali to view the displayed paintings which were inspired by women and society.

The artist was inspired by his daily life.. a woman from his point of view is a celebration of beautiful colors and enchanting melodies.. without women life would look like a ghost clothed in gray with domination of a dreary silence.

According to the artist, there is always a relationship between women and musical instruments in more than one aspect; a woman is always the instrument and her voice is the tone.. every instrument has its own magic, beauty and melodies.. as for women; every woman has her own special beauty and charm.

The artist used acrylic and gesso on canvas and collage and other various materials to execute his paintings.

His successful choice of sizes varied to reflect a specific story within every painting since the size of a painting is very important to the idea.

The paintings of artist Nabil Ali belong to the expressionist school, but he also borrowed some ideas from the surrealist school.
