Salem al Dabbagh :- IRAQ

Born in Mosul in 1941. Works and lives in Iraq.

Dabbagh's extremly attractive works rely for their effect on the careful balancing of cool colours, of black and white and grey whose severity is calmed by a crampled texture. Through his work, he tries to show the propotional relationship between emptiness as an absolute element and the surface as a relative space.
