Fathi
Gaben
Condemned
for Colors
In one of the most fascist sentences
ever against a Palestinian artist, Fathi
Gaben from Jabaliya camp in Gaza Strip
was imprisoned for 6 months on May 10
by an Israeli military court for «incite-
ment against Israel». The main evi-
dence presented against Gaben by the
military prosecutor was his painting «Al
Amal» (hope). The upper part of the
painting employs the four colors of the
Palestinian flag. Gaben was also con-
demned for painting a picture of his
young nephew who was shot dead by
Israeli soldiers in Jabaliya camp. In addi-
tion to the prison sentence, Gaben was
slapped with a 30,000 shekel fine. He is
the father of seven children and one of
the most famous Palestinian artists in
the occupied territories. An international
campaign has been launched to secure
his release.
Gaben's painting «Nationality» for which he was
sentenced. Unfortunately we do not have a color
print, but the «offending» colors are in the upper
corner. - هو جزء من
