Ghasem Mohammadi, a contemporary painter, was born in Shiraz. Mohammadi is a painting graduate from the Faculty of Fine Arts at Tehran university. He also received his master's degree in art research from the same university. In 2003, he exhibited his paintings as a group at Niavaran Cultural Center in Tehran for the first time. A year later, his works appeared in a group exhibition at the UNESCO headquarters in Beirut. His first solo exhibition was held in Seyhou Gallery in 2005. In the following years of Mohammadi's professional career, his works, in addition to being exhibited many times as an individual and group in domestic galleries such as Homa, Rah-e-Abrisham, Tarahane-e-Azad, Aran, Mohsen, etc., were also shown in Dubai Artfair, XVA Dubai Gallery and Jim Gray Gallery in the United States of America.
Mohammadi has a representational and objectivist approach regarding technique and painting methods. This objectivism is aimed at the way of painting and should not necessarily be taken as meaning loyalty to the external and objective form of things. Because he creates his paintings based on the images of these factual subjects deposited in his mind and internalized. Finally, he objectifies his mentalities in recognizable forms with specific meanings. But in the thematic field, the way the elements of the paintings coexist does not follow the logic of the real world and breaks the rules for the benefit of painting fantasies. Playing with the scale of natural and architectural elements and the way they are combined with each other makes them unfamiliar and creates lyrical perspectives. As he considers his paintings "fantasy realists." However, "magical realism" would be a more accurate description of these works. Nature and the complications of human civilization are the fundamental core of these landscapes' aesthetics. These two hostile forces in the real world go to the limit of unity in the paintings of Ghasem Mohammadi in harmonic conformity. His adaptation of traditional Iranian architecture and adobe and thatched buildings gives a native tone to his works.
