Descp.: Polygamy / Solid Bronze Sculpture / 1975
Iraqi Artist Ismail FATTAH (1934 – 2004)
"His themes are few and elementary – Man and Woman in an intimate relationship; figure studies; portraits; and a curious form of still life painting in which portraiture, torso details, facial elements and simple symbols like the human heart, which might equally be a Valentine card, are set out in the picture space like a full page in a photograph album, yet their juxtaposition each component, which could stand as a miniature painting on its own, set up an extremely satisfying emotional and intellectual complex."
