| 1 | Art education is currently one of the compulsory areas of primary education in most countries of the world. This article examines the influence of cultural traditions on the art education of schoolchildren in Iraq and Russia. The purpose of this article is to identify how cultural traditions influence the content and methods of primary art education. The art education system in Russia is based on European and national traditions, trying to introduce children to the culture and art of different countries, not only Russia, while art education in Iraq is largely subordinated to the task of preserving cultural traditions. Teaching artistic disciplines in Russia is based on deep theoretical developments in the field of psychology and pedagogy. Currently, Russia has adopted a unified program for fine arts. Iraq does not have a unified curriculum for teaching fine arts. Teachers can work according to recommended programs or offer their own. The art education curriculum in Russia is secular in nature. In Iraq, trends in secular and religious education have long been competing. The influence of Islam on the teaching of fine arts can be seen in many schools, where preference is given to traditional forms of art, such as ornaments and calligraphy.
