Saadi al Kaabi :-IRAQ

Born in Najaf in 1937. Works and lives in Iraq .

His strong seemingly simple works are full of stylised figures that grow like trees out of the base of the canvas, one behind another. Each a shadow of the former, never complete, these figures which are often nothing more than heads and massive shoulders need each other for support , Only together do they become a whole.

Meg Abu Hamdan, The Star.
