Abstract

El presente estudio se formula en una situación saturada de imágenes fijas y esencialistas sobre el individuo árabe y musulmán, que intenta tipificar la diferencia en absolutos, sin tener en consideración las diversidades existentes. En este sentido, planteamos como principio a seguir, ir más allá del canon historicista habitual para poder desarrollar un análisis específico sobre el trabajo de un artista extra-occidental, que contradice la razón moderna para reflexionar, a partir del arte, sobre la experiencia espiritual en la fe musulmana. A partir de una aproximación a la obra del artista marroquí Younes Rahmoun, construida desde una perspectiva interdisciplinar, analizamos las relaciones existentes entre su discurso artístico, sus convicciones espirituales y su experiencia vital.A modo de contextualización, definimos las razones subyacentes tras las elecciones estético-conceptuales y narrativas empleadas por Rahmoun. En efecto, partimos del convencimiento de que no estamos ante una experiencia artística aislada de su realidad cultural, social, política, económica, histórica y cultural; sino ante una continuidad integrada en el contexto, que funciona en armonía con estilos, reflexiones y modos de vida existentes en el entorno local y global. The present study is formulated in a situation saturated with fixed and essentialist images of the Arab and Muslim individual, which tries to typify the difference in absolutes, without taking into account the existing diversity.In this sense, we propose to go beyond the usual historicist canon to be able to develop a specific analysis of the work of an non-western artist, who contradicts modern reason to reflect through art on the spiritual experience in the Muslim faith. It is, therefore, an approach to the work of the Moroccan artist Younes Rahmoun, built from an interdisciplinary perspective, in which we analyze the relationships between his artistic discourse, his spiritual convictions and his life experience.For this, by way of contextualization, we define the underlying reasons behind the aesthetic-conceptual and narrative choices used by Rahmoun. Indeed, we start from the conviction that we are not facing an artistic experience isolated from its cultural, social, political, economic, historical and cultural reality; but a continuity integrated in the context, which works in harmony with existing styles, reflections and ways of life in the local and global environment.
