Artist Profiles | Abbas
An Iranian transplanted to Paris, Abbas first dedicated his work to document the political and social life of societies in conflict such as Biafra, Vietnam, South Africa under apartheid, and the revolution in Iran.
He then undertook a series of essays on Islam, Christianity and Paganism, each one spanning many years. He is currently examining how religion, which he defines as culture than faith, is replacing political ideology as the driving force behind international conflict.
