Biography
Rached Bohsali, born in 1957, received his education in Beirut, starting with a BA in Architecture from the American University of Beirut. He pursued further studies in Domestic Architecture, obtaining a CEAA from the Ecole d’Archiecture Paris-Villemin. This educational background in Beirut laid the foundation for his career as both an architect and painter.
Bohsali has gained recognition for his exhibitions globally, particularly for his watercolour paintings that explore the materiality of objects and the interplay of light and shadow in still life compositions. His hyperrealist style brings reflective metal surfaces and inanimate objects to life, often prompting reflections on cultural preservation. He has received notable awards, including a Special Mention from the Salon d’Automne at the Sursock Museum and recognition as one of the 12 prize-winners of the Worldwide Millennium Painting Competition organised by Windsor & Newton and IMOGEN in London.
