Biography :

Bahman Mohassess was one of Iran’s most significant modernist artists, renowned for his paintings and sculptures depicting distorted human figures, animals, and mythological creatures. Influenced by European modernism, existentialism, and nihilism, his work explores themes of suffering, loneliness, mortality, and the human condition. Drawing inspiration from Greek mythology, particularly the figure of the Minotaur, he developed a distinctive visual language characterized by deformed bodies, faceless figures, rough textures, and expressive contrasts of color. After studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, Mohassess returned to Iran before permanently settling in Italy in 1969. Throughout his career, he remained committed to his individual artistic vision, becoming known for his critical perspective and uncompromising approach to art.
