Biography:
Born into a family of painters, Jawad Salim came from the village of Mosul, which eventually became a part of Iraq. After studying under his father, Salim traveled to Paris and Rome to train from 1938 to 1940. He worked in the Baghdad Archeological Museum during World War II and became interested in sculpture. Salim continued his studies at the Slade School of Art in London from 1946 to 1949. After returning to Iraq, he was given the position of head of the sculpture department and the Institute of Fine Arts and was commissioned to create the Monument to Liberty by the newly established Iraqi Republic in 1958. Salim also worked as a graphic artist and illustrator.
