Complete Curriculum Vitae

MO's World of Art

"Goddelijk zoals gewoonlijk" (Divine as usual) is the autobiography of artist Mo Mohamed (born 1944), written with Dr. Luc Alofs, a cultural anthropologist and historian at the University of Aruba known for his research on Caribbean social and cultural issues. The book explores Mohamed's life as an artist on the fringes of society across Aruba, the Netherlands, Curaçao, Suriname, and Brazil. It covers Aruba's diversity in the 1950s, cultural shifts in the Netherlands during the 1960s, and racism and police violence in the 1970s. It also reflects on artistic circles in turbulent 1980s Suriname and Mohamed's work in Aruba from 1990 to 2018. Blending personal history with broader cultural reflections, the autobiography is described as a jazz biography, cultural study, and Caribbean picaresque novel. It was launched on September 16, 2021, and is available at various bookstores, including Bol.com.
