Ahmed Alsoudani (1975 –)
Ahmed Alsoudani är en irakisk konstnär vars levande, surrealistiska målningar utforskar krigets trauman och mänskligt lidande. Hans verk, utställda globalt (Venedigbiennalen, Yale), frammanar universella upplevelser av konflikt.
During the first Gulf War, Ahmed Alsoudani fled to Syria before claiming asylum in America. Through his paintings and drawings he approaches the subject of war through aesthetics. Citing great artists of the past such as Goya and George Grosz whose work has become the lasting consciousness of the atrocities of the 19th and 20th centuries, Alsoudani’s inspiration comes directly from his own experiences as a child, as well as his concerns over contemporary global conflicts.
