Discover “The Fury of Ishkur Heralds the Rain”-a bold abstract portrait of the Sumerian storm god, where red-black contrasts evoke destruction and renewal.

In this powerful abstract composition, Gérald Gaboriau captures the divine essence of Ishkur, the Sumerian god of storm and rain, through a striking interplay of red and black. The work fuses Sumerian calligraphy with a contemporary Sumi-e technique, symbolizing the duality between destructive chaos and regenerative rain. Dynamic black brushstrokes evoke lightning tearing through a stormy sky, while the vibrant crimson background channels the primordial force of nature, creating an intense visual experience where ancient mythology meets modern abstraction.

Inspired by ancient Sumerian texts, this painting translates their spirit into a visual language that bridges modern art and ancestral symbolism. The energetic movement and visual tension reflect the primordial chaos before rebirth-a universal theme that transcends time and culture. Ishkur (also known as Adad) embodies both the destructive power of the storm and the life-giving blessing of rain, making him a complex figure in Mesopotamian mythology, invoked for both devastation and fertility.
