Husam Abdel Mohsen

Iraq

Husam Abdel Mohsen, born on August 20, 1951, in Baghdad, Iraq, is a distinguished painter and academic. He completed his education at the Institute of Fine Arts in Baghdad, earning a diploma between 1972 and 1976, followed by a Bachelor's degree from the Academy of Fine Arts at the University of Baghdad in 1981. He further pursued a Master's degree in plastic arts from the same institution, graduating in 1988. His early works, influenced by the socio-political climate of the 1980s, often depicted themes of destruction and human suffering, reflecting the realities of war.

Throughout his career, Abdel Mohsen has participated in numerous exhibitions. Notably, he held a solo exhibition titled "A Cold Autumn" at the Tigris Hall in Baghdad in 2000. In 2015, he showcased his work in "Beirut - Baghdad... A Message of Love" at the UNESCO Palace in Beirut, Lebanon. The following year, he presented "I, the Moon and the Rain" at Hiwar Hall in Baghdad. In 2017, his exhibition "Maqamat" was displayed at Zaman Hall in Beirut. His contributions to the art world have been recognized with awards, including the Best Work Award in 1980 at the Youth Cadres Exhibition organized by the Ministry of Youth.

In addition to his artistic endeavors, Abdel Mohsen has held significant academic positions. He served as the Secretary of the Iraqi Plastic Artists Association from 2003 to 2011 and was appointed as a professor at the Academy of Fine Arts at the University of Baghdad in 2005. His works are characterized by a blend of realism and symbolism, capturing the complexities of Iraqi society and history.

Oil

Pigment bound in oil, prized for its depth, luminosity, and slow drying that lets artists blend and build rich layers. The most enduring medium of modern painting, it remains central to the work of the region's leading modernists.

Expressionism

Art that prioritizes emotion and inner experience over realistic depiction, using distortion, bold color, and energetic mark-making. In the region it gave modern artists a language for memory, displacement, and identity.
