Born in the vibrant city of Tehran in 1958, Raad Masoumi’s artistic journey began with the very first strokes of his childhood. From a young age, he demonstrated an innate talent for capturing the beauty surrounding him, often choosing classical themes as his early muse. In the 1970s, Masoumi’s passion for painting blossomed under the guidance of esteemed mentors who recognized his blend of classical techniques. Raad Masoumi’s artistic journey underwent a profound evolution during this transformative period, leading him to discover his creative identity. The tumultuous events of the 1980s propelled Raad to explore the realms of modernism, adding a layer of depth and complexity to his artwork. His paintings began to reflect not only technical prowess but also a keen understanding of the world around him. Surrealism started to weave its way into his canvases, creating paintings that invited viewers to explore beyond the surface. Now, at the age of 65, Raad Masoumi continues to paint with the same passion that ignited his artistic journey. His recent works are a testament to a lifetime dedicated to the craft, displaying a maturity that can only come from decades of exploration and expression. The classical foundation remains, but with each stroke, he pushes the boundaries of perception through classical beauty, modern introspection, and surreal imagination.
