Baghdad College Of Fine Arts
The Baghdad College of Fine Arts (now the Institute of Fine Arts) is a faculty of the University of Baghdad. Background Until the early 20th-century there was little development in the visual arts. However, in the 1930s and 40s, a group of talented local artists was sent to study in Europe by the Ministry of Culture. On their return, these artists introduced modern styles such as impressionism to the local scene. They shared their experiences and knowledge of art by opening studios, providing art tuition, organising artists' collectives and exhibitions. Most of these artists taught in the modern style. They also consciously searched for a visual language that would integrate contemporary abstract art with Iraqi traditions and themes. These artists formed the nucleus of the group that founded the College of Fine Arts and became its first Faculty members.Longrigg, S. and Stoakes, F., "The Social Pattern," in: Abdulla M.
