ARTnews published Alex Greenberger's obituary of Kamal Boullata on 7 August 2019, under the headline Kamal Boullata, Palestinian Artist Who Brought His Country's Past Into the Present, Dead at 77. The page title uses a shorter line; the longer on page and og headline is the one used here.
The feature traces Boullata's work as a painter and writer, and the way he carried Palestinian history and Arabic letters into abstract form. He was 77. The gallery is not named. The Art Newspaper obituary and the Artforum tribute are already on the News page; this is a further English language obituary from ARTnews.
Greenberger writes a full obituary rather than a brief death notice, and traces both the paintings and the writing. Boullata was born in Jerusalem in 1942 and died in 2019. The card sits beside, and does not replace, the obituaries already on the site.
Tabari presents the work of Kamal Boullata.
