| Abstract | ||
| Conceptual photography is considered one of the types of contemporary art and postmodern art, and many artists have followed this trend and have made a clear imprint in the artistic arena. I am also in the case of re-employing old photographs with their distinctive memories of the artist. And from here comes the problem of the research, as the conceptual works and the use of the photograph were greatly multiplied, but it lost the national character of the country, and it became carrying a character different from our culture, our Arabism, and our ancient civilization. Through this research, the researcher was interested in mentioning a group of conceptual photography artists, clarifying their different approaches in contemporary arts, and adding some special applications that bear the national and cultural character of their own and our country through works of collage and mixed materials. And by reformulating the form and adding intellectual dimensions to contemporary artwork and new plastic starting points through abstraction, composition, deletion, addition, reduction, distortion, enlargement and reduction, or repetition, changing the outer line of the form, which in turn leads to the development of new plastic formulas. And contemporary artistic visions. | ||
