Faraj Abbo

Faraj Abbo al Numan more commonly Faraj Abu, Faraj Aboo or simply Faraj Abou, was an influential Assyrian Iraqi artist, theatre director, designer, author and educator, noted as one of the early artists to integrate Arabic script into his abstract paintings and who achieved international recognition for his artwork. He is among a small group of post-war Iraqi artists who won international recognition. Yet, his work is difficult to classify. In his early career, he was noted for portraiture, but in his later career he became known for work that was distinctly Iraqi and abstract.
