Artists of the Toiling Classes is a 2024 Arabic novel by ʿAbd al-Bāsiṭ Muḥammad Qandūzī, published by Dār Lāmāsū lil-Nashr wa-l-Tawzīʿ in Sweden. The novel is a philosophical and aesthetic meditation on visual art as a medium of resistance and existential expression. Through the lens of marginalized artists, the narrative explores how painting and image-making become acts of survival, rebellion, and truth-telling.
The protagonist reflects on art not as decoration, but as a mirror of suffering and a tool for reclaiming agency. The novel blends poetic prose with critical theory, inviting readers to contemplate the social function of art in oppressed communities.
