Curatorial Notes

The Curatorial Notes constitute a space for writing and reflection around Moroccan Cubism, the collections of Chaimaa Mellouki, and contemporary artistic issues.

They extend the pictorial work through thought.
Here, writing does not explain the artworks; it illuminates their foundations, contexts, and cultural implications.

These texts are intended for collectors, curators, institutions, and informed audiences engaged in a rigorous reading of contemporary art.

Writing to Inscribe in Time

In Chaimaa Mellouki’s practice, writing is inseparable from creation.
It contributes to the construction of a coherent, legible, and enduring body of work.

The Curatorial Notes address in particular:

• Moroccan Cubism as a founding artistic movement

• the Imazighen collection as a living archive

• notions of memory, transmission, and rarity

• the value of long-term vision in the construction of an artwork meant to be collected
