Abstract

Research Summary

The research addressed the intellectual and formative dimensions of Kazem Haider's body language, a model of the body's light, which has become a subject of inquiry and contemplation. The value of the body is no longer in its physical dimension, as was the case in ancient times. Rather, it has acquired new dimensions in terms of its aesthetic energies, its motor functions, and the various semantic fields expressed by its various constituent organs: the face, eyes, hands, and head. The current research contains four chapters. The first chapter includes: The Methodological Framework: The research problem, its importance, and the need for it. The current research problem was defined by answering the following question: What are the intellectual and formative dimensions of body language in the artist Kazem Haider? The aim of the research was to identify the intellectual and formative dimensions of body language (Kazem Haider as a model), including its boundaries in Iraq, for three decades (1950-1970(.

The second chapter, which contains three topics, addresses the body in the intellectual and philosophical context. The second topic addresses the concept of body language. The third topic addresses the artist Kazem Haider. The chapter concluded with indicators of the theoretical framework and previous studies.

The third chapter included the research procedures: The research community consisted by the artist Kazem Haider. Three works were chosen as models for the research sample, which were intentionally selected and distributed according to the time frame. The fourth chapter dealt with the research results, conclusions, recommendations, and proposals. (Some of the results were.

The most important findings of the research are the following:

1- Drawing inspiration from cultural heritage, which contributes to the employment of key concepts, such as drawing the main character in a large format and size, gives the work its local impact, creating an identity more in keeping with the nature of society, including the entire sample.

2- The artist's understanding of his society and environment, with its intellectual, spiritual, social, formative, and ritual dimensions, contributes to the crystallization of the work's concept in a manner consistent with the artist's technique and unique style, as in the entire sample.

The research concludes with research references, references, and sources.
