Welcome to Uruk Arts Gallery
My name is Sahira Nazhat, I showcased Mesopotamian* art in galleries since 1996.  Currently, through my Uruk Arts Gallery website, I continue to provide various artists a platform to showcase their art. My motive is to help art lovers and collectors around the world to have access to new artists and their works through this platform.

*Uruk is an ancient city in southern Mesopotamia that thrived during the Uruk period around 4200-3000 BCE. The city continued to develop into the Early Dynastic Period (Mesopotamia) around 2900-2350 BCE. Considered one of the first cities, the site of Uruk – currently known as Iraq – shows evidence of social stratification, institutionalized religion, a centralized administration, and what art historians would categorize as high art and architecture, the first in the long history of the art of Mesopotamia. Much of the art of Uruk shows a high technical skill and was often made using precious materials.
