Ahvaz
Contemporary
Art
Museum
was
opened
in
2008
with
five
galleries
on
2
floors.
The
treasure
of
this
museum
has
70
works,
60
of
which
belong
to
the
artists
of
Khuzestan
province
and
10
works
belong
to
the
artists
of
other
provinces
of
the
country.
Conferences,
working
groups,
various
art
training
courses
and
art
seminars
were
held
in
this
museum.
In
some
cases,
its
galleries
were
used
as
individual
exhibitions
of
different
artists.
The
most
important
works
of
Ahvaz
Contemporary
Arts
Museum
are
the
works
that
came
here
from
Abadan
Contemporary
Arts
Museum.
The
works
of
artists
such
as
Hannibal
Khas,
Korosh
Shihgaran,
Mohammad
Ehassai,
etc.
can
be
mentioned.
This
museum
was
handed
over
to
the
private
sector
in
a
seven-year
contract
in
Shahrivar
94,
which
resulted
in
the
reaction
and
protest
of
many
artists.
In
recent
years,
a
lot
of
damage
has
been
done
to
the
building
of
the
Ahvaz
Contemporary
Arts
Museum,
the
interior
of
the
museum
and
the
museum's
treasure,
which
contains
valuable
works.
Parts
of
the
museum
building
have
been
burned
and
robbed
several
times.
