DESCRIPTION:Oct 25\, 2026 - Feb 28\, 2027\nDisrupted by unstable politics a
 nd turbulent war\, 20th-century Iraqi art had trouble flourishing. But in 
 1951\, after spending time abroad\, Jewad Selim and Shakir Hassan Al Said 
 established the Baghdad Modern Art Group and an underground power finally 
 began to grow. Patterns from ancient civilizations collided with modernist
  styles\, and local landscapes were captured with abstract techniques. “
 Their work has been crude but inventive\, has had a vigour and boldness wh
 ich would not have been possible with a more refined technique\,” Selim 
 said of ancient Mesopotamian art. This exhibition in Doha examines the gro
 up’s legacy through generations.
