“East and West, modernity and tradition, are fatally interwoven in the work of Al Fadhil. In the ‘70s, the Iraqi artist left his country, first moving to Italy and then to Switzerland. The Iran-Iraq war (1980-1988) and the early ‘90s, the first Gulf War marked permanently his work: since then, it has been characterized by political and social commitment. At times provocatively, at times sarcastically, even solemnly, Al Fadhil offers his audience a critical look at the often dramatic vicissitudes characterising our time.”
The pictures in this exhibition are a selection from the huge visual heritage archive of time and modern history of Iraq. In it we find traces of people and places processed through violence and suffering, but remained as evidence of the fragility of our existence.
