Biography:
Born in Aleppo, Syria, Fateh Moudarres originally taught himself realist techniques before becoming interested in Surrealism. He then studied at the Academia di Belle Arti in Rome from 1954 to 1960 and developed a distinctive style of painting that incorporated both movements. He abandoned the religious iconography and Syrian Art references of his early work for non-objectivity in the 1960’s. After 1967 however, his work took on political themes. Moudarres studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris for three years in the early 1970’s, and honed his technical and compositional skills. Teaching at the University of Damascus has allowed him to exert a tremendous influence on young Syrian artists.
