Two Arab artists from same hometown but different generations win prestigious prize | Timesofisrael
There are more than a few similarities between the two recipients of this year’s Rappaport Prize for Israeli Artists, awarded to an established artist and to a young and promising artist.
Both Hannan Abu-Hussein and Maria Salah Mahameed were born in Umm al-Fahm, a northern Arab city that has become something of a hub for emerging Arab art. Both have been creating art since they can remember, both attended art school, both earned degrees and both are finding their complicated way as Arab women artists in the mostly Jewish Israeli art world.
