Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Hasan (Hassan) Hourani (Arabic: حسن حوراني, 1974 – August 6, 2003) was a Palestinian artist born in Hebron, Palestine. He attended the College of Fine Art in Baghdad, Iraq from 1993 to 1997. In 2001 he presented his one-man show "One Day, One Night" in the UN building in New York City. He then studied at the Art Students League of New York and continued to live in the city for several years. His work has been exhibited in Palestine, Iraq, Egypt, Jordan, South Korea, New York and Houston.[1]
In 2003, he returned home for a visit. Like nearly all West Bank Palestinians, he had been barred from traveling across the Green Line to see the sea for many years; but during this trip home, he was able to visit the Mediterranean shore. On August 6, 2003 he went swimming with his young nephew Samer Abu Ajamieh and their girlfriends from Ramallah, and both drowned near the Port of Jaffa.[2]
