Riad Yima Boutique & Art Gallery

"Artist Hassan Hajjaj's Studio and Tearooms The gallery, boutique, and tearooms of Morocco’s most famous living artist, Hassan Hajjaj, is an essential stop forany art lovers staying in the city. Tucked away down a narrow alley behind the Rahba Lakdima (otherwise known as the Place des Épices), it's like stumbling into a jewel box filled with pop-art treasures. Hajjaj made a name for himself with a series of photographs titled Kech Angels, which depicted local girls on mopeds dressed in eye-popping robes. The collection has been exhibited all over the world in such illustrious venuesas theVictoria and Albert Museumin London and the Institut des Cultures d’Islam in Paris, but nowhere beats enjoying thework on home turf. While you’re there, treat yourself to his iconic recycled home and fashion pieces, such asa sardine-can lantern, a pair of babouches (Moroccan slippers) cut from a flour sack, or a stool from an oil drum. And if you hang around for a pot of mint tea in the courtyard, you might even meet the man himself."
