Interest in art already in early childhood, which at the beginning of the seventies was strengthened by the instruction with professor Alami Bertouli in Morocco. Several years he dedicates himself to pencil and ink drawings.
In the eighties and nineties he engaged in watercolor , oil painting and passed finally to acrylic painting on canvas and paper. In his acrylic works he applies also the former techniques.
„Painting is a science“ – so he researches as an artist equally as in technique. He deals with color theories for years – his pictures are the result of it, only one stopover, the development always continues. His slogan: „Say that you do not know it. If you say, that you do not know it, one shows you, until you know it. If you say, you know it, one asks you, until you do not know it any longer.”
To his painting he says: „Painting is development of seeing and ability.“
Science affects his painting - on one side precision, on the other abstraction. Within both areas he attaches importance to reliability.
Since 1987 the artist lives in Austria, since 1989 in Vienna, the studio „an der Niederhaid” at the border of the Viennese forest is under construction. Aghzouts pictures were presented in several solo, duo exhibitions and international group exhibitions. Collectors of high standing in several countries own his paintings.
His pictures are manifold and multicolored, characterized by the mild light and the strong colors of his homeland, converted into contemporary painting.
He is member of IG Bildende Kunst in Austria, Berufsvereinigung der bildenden Künstler Österreich in Austria and IAA (International Association of Art to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and cultural Organisation, UNESCO).
„Aghzouts pictures speak their own language. More than his words… mild light and strong colors… his own color palette. His „development of seeing“ leads to compositions with power and energy, emotion and harmony. They reflect the colorfulness of Morocco, its humans, its culture, from which already artists as Delacroix, Miró, Matisse,….were fascinated.“
Günter Wolfgang Wachtl (chairman of the art circle Vienna, inner city)
