Highlights on Iraqi Modern and Contemporary Art from the Ibrahimi Collection

The Ibrahimi art collection is a living, growing body of work. It includes works that represent the Iraqi modern art movement from its inception in the 1920s to the present. It provides a vivid testimony of the movement's continuous creativity and growth in spite of the fact that most of the artists are now living all over the world. This clearly demonstrates that the communication between Iraqi artists of all generations continues, albeit on a personal level, through exhibitions held in Amman, Beirut, and the Arab Gulf capitals. Founded by Iraqi medical doctor and businessman Hasanain Al-Ibrahimi, the collection aims to contribute to the preservation of the rich heritage of Iraqi modern and contemporary art and raise awareness of its creativity, without any preference for specific artists or critics.
