Rachid Koraïchi (Arabic: رشيد قريشي[1]) is an Algerian artist, sculptor, print-maker and ceramicist, noted for his contemporary artwork which integrates calligraphy as a graphic element.

Rachid Koraïchi was born on 20 January 1947 in Ain Beida, Algeria into a Sufi family of Qu'ranic scholars and copyists.

[2] He received his early art education at the École des Beaux-Arts in Algeria, where he studied calligraphy.

His Sufi upbringing has influenced much of his work by giving him an abiding fascination with scripts and symbols.

His work has been exhibited very widely, including at the Venice Biennale (2001)[4] and MOMA (2006),[5] and is also in the collection of the National Museum of African Art, Washington D.C.
