Mahmoud Sabri was an Iraqi painter who was considered to be one of the pioneers of Iraqi modern art and one of the pillars of modernism in Iraqi art. In the 1950s he pioneered the painting of social and political issues. In the late 1960s he started working on linking art and science. He was actively involved in Iraq's arts community through his membership of various art groups. He was a foundation member of Jum'at al Ruwwad (The Avantgarde Group; later known as the Primitive Group) in 1950. This group was inspired by Mespotamian art, Iraqi folklore and the 12th and 13th-century poets of the Baghdad School. In 1971, he published his Manifesto of the New Art of Quantum Realism (QR)-An application of scientific method in the field of art.
