About The Artwork
The red carpet Soft pastel (Jaxell) On self- prepared paper, coated with “Schmincke primer for pastel” My own photo as reference. This pastel on paper represents the living room in my apartment on the 9th floor in Berlin. That door from which the light came opened the scene to the far east of the city. I took this photo two years ago and used it as a reference to paint a watercolor, but with limited success. To express strong contrast and rich colors, I need a different medium. Soft pastel was the right medium to achieve such colors. In the 1970s I was forced to live in difficult circumstances for political reasons. During this time, I dreamed of a normal life and wanted to live in a clean place. The interior has always attracted me because it offers a stable life that I still miss.

Germany
I was born in Diyala province- Buhriz, Iraq in 1949, granted BA in history and art history from the University of Baghdad in 1970. 1969 joined the free atelier of the college of art under the supervision of the late artist pro. Khalid Al-Jadir. In the same year we established the group of Al-Adab for fine art. Between 1977 and 1978 I studied sociology and politics in Moscow at the institute of social sciences. Been arrested and tortured many times because of my political activities till I leave to Germany in 2000 to be granted a political asylum, since then I live and work in Berlin in my atelier in Atelierhaus Sigmaringer 1. Between 2007 and 2009 I lectured how to paint with acrylic at the VHS in Berlin. In spite of all difficulties and suffering I was sad to leave behind the most successful year of 80s and 90s in which I was among the best sellers. I wrote and published many articles, my first book to be published in the next few months. More under: www.munir-alubaidi.de
