TORONTO TANGO 8 FESTIVAL ★ Marathon September 25 - 28, 2025
HAMID KARIMI
Hamid Karimi’s journey as an artist began in childhood. Born in the late ’60s in Tehran, Iran, Hamid showed an aptitude for art from an early age. Hamid spent years travelling through Europe. “In fact,” Hamid admits, “Europe especially Spain still finds its way into my work.”
Hamid’s travels inspire a wide range of subject matter in his work. One canvas may depict the flamenco dancers at the stage, the next landscapes and the cityscapes from Canada and Europe, each painting vibrates with artistic energy and colour, entertaining the eye and mind.
