Now Showing: Youssef Nabil’s I Saved My Belly Dancer
Entering LACMA's collection this year, Youssef Nabil’s film, I Saved My Belly Dancer, is celebrating its 10th anniversary. The film's poster is available for customizing -- choose among three sizes, on either paper or canvas, with optional framing in a wide range of styles -- now for a limited time.
The poster, featuring the belly dancer played by Salma Hayek, evokes the dream-like, otherworldly quality of Nabil's work. The poster is further delineated by the unearthly intensity and tonality of the film's color palette, which the artist hand-painted on silver gelatin prints and colorized frame by frame with concentrated, supersaturated hues.
