Adonis, 82, won last year's German Goethe Prize and was a favorite for the Nobel Prize for Literature.

Adonis makes collages with random passages of Arabic poetry and diverse materials including rags, yarn, documents and used cans.

This colleage, including photographs and electronic components, was made in 2011.

Adonis has been making his collages for about 10 years.

The writing in Adonis's collages includes his own verse as well as classical Arabic poetry.

This is one of the oldest collages in Adonis's exhibition, dating from 1993.

Adonis's artwork is unframed in the exhibition to show its rich texture.
