Husein Huseinov (born 22 September 1951 in Ashgabat) is a Turkmen painter and art director in films.
Ashgabat — named Poltoratsk between 1919 and 1927, is the capital and the largest city of Turkmenistan in Central Asia, situated between the Karakum Desert and the Kopet Dag mountain range.
Turkmenistan, formerly known as Turkmenia, officially the Republic of Turkmenistan, is a country in Central Asia, bordered by Kazakhstan to the northwest, Uzbekistan to the north and east, Afghanistan to the southeast, Iran to the south and southwest, and the Caspian Sea to the west. Ashgabat is the capital and largest city. The population of the country is 5.6 million, the lowest of the Central Asian republics and one of the most sparsely populated in Asia.
In 1977 he graduated from the Art Faculty of the All-Union State Institute for Cinematography in Moscow and afterwards he participated in numerous Republican, All-Union and international art exhibitions. In 1982 he joined the USSR Union of Artists and from 1992 regularly appeared on the artistic scene in Baku, Azerbaijan.
Baku is the capital and largest city of Azerbaijan, as well as the largest city on the Caspian Sea and of the Caucasus region. Baku is located 28 metres (92 ft) below sea level, which makes it the lowest lying national capital in the world and also the largest city in the world located below sea level. Baku lies on the southern shore of the Absheron Peninsula, alongside the Bay of Baku. At the beginning of 2009, Baku's urban population was estimated at just over 2,000,000 people. Officially, about 25 percent of all inhabitants of the country live in Baku's metropolitan area. Baku is the sole metropolis in Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijan, officially the Republic of Azerbaijan, is a country in the South Caucasus region of Eurasia at the crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia. It is bounded by the Caspian Sea to the east, Russia to the north, Georgia to the northwest, Armenia to the west and Iran to the south. The exclave of Nakhchivan is bounded by Armenia to the north and east, Iran to the south and west, and has an 11 km long border with Turkey in the northwest.
In the late 1990s he attained a scholarship and moved to Innsbruck, Austria. He currently resides in his native city of Ashgabat. Huseinov has also worked on more than ten films and theatrical productions.
Innsbruck is the capital city of Tyrol in western Austria and the fifth-largest city in Austria. It is in the Inn valley, at its junction with the Wipp valley, which provides access to the Brenner Pass some 30 km (18.6 mi) to the south.
Austria, officially the Republic of Austria, is a country in Central Europe comprising 9 federated states. Its capital, largest city and one of nine states is Vienna. Austria has an area of 83,879 km2 (32,386 sq mi), a population of nearly 9 million people and a nominal GDP of $477 billion. It is bordered by the Czech Republic and Germany to the north, Hungary and Slovakia to the east, Slovenia and Italy to the south, and Switzerland and Liechtenstein to the west. The terrain is highly mountainous, lying within the Alps; only 32% of the country is below 500 m (1,640 ft), and its highest point is 3,798 m (12,461 ft). The majority of the population speaks local Bavarian dialects as their native language, and German in its standard form is the country's official language. Other regional languages are Hungarian, Burgenland Croatian, and Slovene.
Huseinov is primarily a landscape painter depicting the desert and vast steppes of his native Turkmenistan alternating between abstract and figurative representations of this landscape and the human beings living in it. His landscape paintings are a mixture of childhood memories and ancient Silk Road images. The same motives (ancient artefacts, mosaics, textiles) are to be found in his still lifes. From time to time he also explores sculptural techniques like for instance objects of cardboard paper and collages.
Huseinov has participated in exhibitions held in Russia, France, United Kingdom, Germany, Turkey and Iran, where in 1997 his work featured in Tehran. Much of his artwork has been purchased by the Turkmen Museum of Fine Arts, the Moscow Directorate for Artistic Exhibitions, and by private collectors internationally.
Tehran is the capital of Iran and Tehran Province. With a population of around 8.694 million in the city and 15 million in the larger metropolitan area of Greater Tehran, Tehran is the most populous city in Iran and Western Asia, and has the second-largest metropolitan area in the Middle East. It is ranked 24th in the world by the population of its metropolitan area.
