Rooted in the visual traditions of the Middle East, her oeuvre recalls Iraq's folkloric past, Islamic design and ancient Assyrian sculpture reliefs. In 1965, Al-Attar became the first woman to hold a solo exhibition in Baghdad, and her work is now showcased internationally.\u003cbr\u003eThis exquisitely illustrated monograph features original photography of more than 100 of Al-Attar's surrealistic works--the most comprehensive published collection of work by the artist to date. With text by Al-Attar's granddaughter, the writer and art historian Nesma Shubber, the book tells the story of the artist's remarkable life and work, from her formative years in Baghdad to her arrival in London in 1976, up to the present day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Suad Al-Attar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1912122553\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781912122554\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Heni Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/11\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.60h x 8.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Suad Al-Attar","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44074118545663,"sku":"9781912122554","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7b0317b4-fc03-403e-a0b3-e2520c8a2c02.jpg?v=1685451891","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/suad-al-attar-suad-al-attar-9781912122554","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
