Born 1965 in Kabul, Afghanistan, Kargar moved to Germany at a very young age and was raised in West-Berlin. He studied Fine Art/Painting in Braunschweig, Germany.
In his early work he depicted Roman-Greco mythology and created very contemporary paintings based on the ancient cultures. His recent work is a strong departure from the historical content.
Bold, provocative and sexy is the new language of his passionate paintings. His inspiration is the media and advertising world around us. While his earlier work depicted the gods and goddesses of the Antique, we find that his new work depicts the new icons of our Modern times.
Please save the date for the opening reception: Saturday, April 10th 2010 6-8pm. Kargar will come from Berlin to be here for the inveiling of his new series.
