Khosrow Khosravi is an Iranian painter and video artist. He studied art with Parviz Habibpour. Then he entered the Faculty of Fine Arts in Tehran and continued his academic studies in painting until 1991. After that, he went to the Tehran University of Art for graduate studies and received a master's degree in art research. In 1994, he held his first solo exhibition at Iran Art Gallery in Tehran. He also collaborated with the +30 group, A group of artists with different artistic trends and styles who gathered intending to display their works and held several exhibitions in Iran, Japan, Italy, France, and Armenia. This group tried to use new media to communicate with the audience, ending in the middle of the 2000s. Khosravi's first international appearance occurred in 2001 in Qatar (a group exhibition of Iranian contemporary art). A year later, his works were exhibited at the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum. His artworks have been displayed in countries such as France, England, India, and the United States. Khosravi has pursued art teaching in parallel with his other activities. In 1994, he became a member of the faculty of Soureh University and was appointed to manage the painting department for several periods in undergraduate and graduate degrees.

In his modernist approaches, Khosravi has used the Iranian image tradition in a way. In this period of his career, he depicts men and women in traditional clothing, such as hats, robes, veils, chadors, etc., in a photo-like manner. By meddling in the realistic spatial logic, he introduced measures such as adding more miniature figures to the corners of these images or adding writing (classical or folk poems written in Nastaliq script) to parts of the painting to introduce the critical social implications he considered into his photographic paintings. He takes an entirely different approach in his later works. In these works, no formal elements are reminiscent of tradition. In these works, he takes a more painterly approach and often shows the symbolic presence of some two-dimensional and ghostly figures in an empty and lonely space: as if people are talking to us from the distant past in their silence. In the medium of video, Khosravi expresses his personal interpretation of the situation of contemporary man more clearly.
