SUMMARY:Assyrian Art Exhibition - George Shamoun
DESCRIPTION:Save the date Sunday\, November 16 \nQuestions? Please contact Finearts@acf-us.org \nGeorge Joseph Shamoun was born in 1957 in Ras al-Ain\, Hasakah Governale\, in northeast Syria\, where he grew up in a family of eight children. Ras al­ Ain is acknowledged as one of the oldest cities in Upper Mesopotamia\, inhabited since about 8000 B.C. It was a fertile region for an artist to root and grow. \nThrough his studies he was able to experiment with various artistic media\, including copper metal\, photography\, and oil painting. He is inspired to create works that represent ancient Assyrian artifacts\, in order to disseminate them widely. Given that many of these objects are confined to museums\, Shamoun sees his work as a way to bridge that distance\, and give the viewer an opportunity to appreciate the cultural significance of ancient Assyrian objects. \nShamoun aspired to pass down rich artistic and cultural values to the next generation in the Assyrian community\, which includes his own children. His art offers deference and appreciation for the past\, while helping to shape the Assyrian community’s future. \n#AssyrianArt #FineArtsExhibition #ACFChicago #AssyrianCulture #AssyrianHeritage
