Rafa al-Nasiri - Artworks


"Rafa Nasiri (also al Nasiri) 1940-2013, painter and print maker, was born in Tikrit, a city besides the Tigris 180 km north of Baghdad. Studied art at the Institute of Fine Arts, Baghdad; was granted a scholarship to enhance his academic studies in Beijing, China, to be the first Iraqi artist specialized in graphic art. He was later granted another scholarship to Portugal. To promote the art of printmaking in Iraq, he established a special department in the Institute of Fine arts, Baghdad, and later, in 1987, a private graphic studio in Baghdad. Spent 25 years of his life teaching art in the Institute of Fine Arts Baghdad 1964-1989, while freely practicing painting and printmaking. In the after math of the second Gulf war 1991, he moved to Amman, Jordan to teach art until 1997 when he moved to Bahrain University. In 2003 he settle back in Amman, Jordan as a full time artist.
Considered as one of the leading modern innovators in Iraq and the Arab world, Rafa Nasiri's art works along his career life was able to extend wider borders and take place in world museums."(rafanasiri.com)” Light to him is simply a quality that reveals itself in color, it is quality by itself that goes beyond the things; it is the water that nourishes the work while moving through its veins to elevate the scene into a different levels of existence.”
Rafa Al-Nasiri was born in 1940 in Tekrit, and being educated in China, he adopted what the chinese put it as; working like nature rather than simply imitate it.Nasiri lives within his scene, believing that actual involvement is the shortest route to the truth. Thus he starts from a chaotic point, and follow the traces of form in the formless, in an attempt to create his own order within a world of total disorder.
Nasiri’s painting reveals an inexhaustible source of variations centering around a main subject, the desert. and in his late sixties, he found himself attracted to arabic calligraphy as a distinctive composite element."(ghaliyah.wordpress.com)

“I could not have closed on my first home without Mr, Benjamin Lee ! Benjamin and his team went above and beyond for me on this transaction. He handled my very tight turn around time with ease and was always available for me when I had questions (and I had plenty), even when he was away from the office, which I greatly appreciated! He and his team handled many last-minute scrambles with the seller and worked tirelessly to make sure that I could close before my lease (and my down payment assistance, for that matter) expired. Mr Benjamin is incredibly knowledgeable Loan Officer, courteous, and patient. I went through a couple offers on properties before my final purchase and Benjamin was there to help with each one, often coordinating with my agent behind the scenes. I felt supported throughout the entire process. Thanks to Benjamin and the tireless efforts of his team, I am now a proud home owner! I would encourage you to consider Benjamin Briel Lee for any kind of loan.Mr, Benjamin Lee Contact informaions.via WhatsApp +1-989-394-3740  Email- lfdsloans@outlook.com.
