Hannibal Alkhas (Persian: هانیبال الخاص; June 16, 1930 – September 13, 2010) [1] was an artist of Assyrian descent from Iran. Alkhas was among the contemporary Iranian modernist painters and pioneered figurative design in modernist painting, becoming one of the most influential painters and art instructors shaping the course of contemporary Iranian painting. He was active in the teaching of art for thirty-five years.
In 1986, due to the persecution faced by intellectuals and artists in the 1980s, he left Iran and continued his life in the United States. In later years, he made extended visits to Iran, but did not permanently reside there again. He died in California.
