This collection contains 10 original, numbered works created
by the artists Bruni Heym and Jafar T. Kaki, with traditional
and non traditional means and different techniques.
The works have all been created in their workshop in Santa Ponsa,
Mallorca between the years 2001 and 2004. The pieces are numbered
from the 1/30 to the 30/30 and there also exist 3 P.A., 1 B.A.T,
& 3 H.C. Each piece is accompanied by the poem that it represents,
both in Arabic (calligraphy by Jafar T. Kaki) and in the Spanish
or German translation and is signed by the author of the poems,
Adonis. The works have been inspired by poems of great Arab
contemporary poet "ADONIS" (Canciones de Mihyar el
de Damasco y Libro de las huidas y mudanzas por las climas del
día y la noche). The books have been translated into
Spanish by Federico Arbós, Professor of Modern Arab Literature
