Wafaa Bilal's Gallery

Dick Gordon spoke with artist Wafaa Bilal on May 10, 2007. Wafaa is an Iraqi who came to the U.S. in 1992, after living for two years in a refugee camp in Saudi Arabia. At the camp, Wafaa created abstract art as a way to express his frustration and hope for a better future. Today, Wafaa continues to create art as a professor at the Art Institute of Chicago.
