From the First Biennale of Arab Art, which took place in 1974 in Baghdad.

This photo was taken in the Iraqi section, with a painting by Jawdet Haseeb on the right and a painting by Tariq Madhloum on the left.
Also featuring this epic work, 'The Artist and the Battle' (1974) by Nizar Selim.
From the ceramics and sculpture section, I think this is just Iraqi work here.
Part of Kuwait's section in the Biennale, which included this lovely sculpture by Khaz'al 'Awdh.
Some 1973 Baya in the Algeria section.
And Said Saad Eldin in the Egypt section.
The Syrian pavilion. 6th from the right is this Fateh Moudarres I think.
Tamam al Akhal for Palestine with this pretty epic work entitled 'Camp No. 2'
And 'Knight' (1974) by Laila Shawa, again for Palestine.
