Atbin Art Gallery Jan 2013 Iranian Master Of Abstract Painting 02
Tehran

 

 

آبستره ایرانی‌ را از آن رو دوست می‌‌دارم که بسیار زمینی‌ است. چرا نباشد؟ وقتی‌ برآمده از خاک است؛خاکی گسترده از فرات تا   

هرات، بر آمده از میراثی ملموس اما از دست شده. تلالو آسمان لاجوردی است بر خاکی سر سخت و کم حاصل.

آبستره‌های مجموعه‌ای که پیش رو دارید در نگاه من تا بن ایرانی‌ اند گرچه شاید اغلب هنرمندانش در ایران کار و زندگی‌ نکنند و یا نقاشی را اینجا نیاموخته باشند. بوم‌های حمید پازکی همه جلوه‌شان میراث دارآن لعاب‌های سبز آبی گون معماری‌های بابل است.همان لعابی که راهش را از میان دیوار‌های عظیم زاگرس،که شکوه خاکیشان در تابلو‌های رضا حسینی تصویر شده،جسته در کاشی‌های حیرت انگیز مساجد کهن غرب ایران غنوده است.همان کاشی هایی که شاید الهام بخش یعقوب امدادیان بوده در خلق آبستره هایی دنج و آشنا حتّی برای آنان که چشمشان به انتزاع عادت ندارد.

اما ترکیب بندی‌های استاد وزیری مگر غیر از انتزاع تصویر و تصور همان حیات‌های اشرافی زندی و قاجاری در یک بعد از ظهر رخوتناک تابستان است که این چنین ساده شده به دست کلاسیک‌ترین نقاش مدرن ایران بر بوم پهن شده اند.همان حیات خلوت هایی که پاشویه حوض ماهیشان این چنین بی‌ آلایش در آبستره کوچک اما پر احساس فریده لاشایی نشسته است.

I like Iranian abstracts because it is very terrestrial; and why it shouldn’t be when it is actually earth-born, emerged from a soil spread from Euphrates to Herat, emerged from a palpable but perished heritage. It’s the effulgence of the azure sky on a thirsty and barren soil.
To me the abstract in the collection you are about to visit are Iranian to the bone regardless that their creators may not working or living in Iran at the moment or have been educated outside this soil. 
Hamid Pazoki’s canvases inherit their glittering appeal from the bluish green enamels of the old Babel. The very same enamel that found its way through gargantuan walls of Zagros, which their earthy splendor is painted on huge canvases of Reza Hossieni, and had rested on the amazing tiles of ancients mosques of North West Iran. The tiles that Yaqub Emdadian may have been inspired by in creating his cozy abstracts that are familiar even for those who are not used to abstract art. And the compositions by Master Mohsen Vaziri may not be but the stylized image and fancy of the aristocratic gardens of Quajary mansions in a lazy summer afternoon. The very same gardens, that Farideh Lashai has painted their goldfish pedilavium in such a small but frank and sentimental abstract.

More About Tehran

Overview and HistoryTehran is the capital of Iran and the largest city in the Middle East, with a population of fifteen million people living under the peaks of the Alborz mountain range.Although archaeological evidence places human activity around Tehran back into the years 6000BC, the city was not mentioned in any writings until much later, in the thirteenth century. It's a relatively new city by Iranian standards.But Tehran was a well-known village in the ninth century. It grew rapidly when its neighboring city, Rhages, was destroyed by Mongolian raiders. Many people fled to Tehran.In the seventeenth century Tehran became home to the rulers of the Safavid Dynasty. This is the period when the wall around the city was first constructed. Tehran became the capital of Iran in 1795 and amazingly fast growth followed over the next two hundred years.The recent history of Tehran saw construction of apartment complexes and wide avenues in place of the old Persian gardens, to the detriment of the city's cultural history.The city at present is laid out in two general parts. Northern Tehran is more cosmopolitan and expensive, southern Tehran is cheaper and gets the name "downtown."Getting ThereMehrabad airport is the original one which is currently in the process of being replaced by Imam Khomeini International Airport. The new one is farther away from the city but it now receives all the international traffic, so allow an extra hour to get there or back.TransportationTehran driving can be a wild free-for-all like some South American cities, so get ready for shared taxis, confusing bus routes and a brand new shiny metro system to make it all better. To be fair, there is a great highway system here.The metro has four lines, tickets cost 2000IR, and they have segregated cars. The women-only carriages are the last two at the end, FYI.Taxis come in two flavors, shared and private. Private taxis are more expensive but easier to manage for the visiting traveler. Tehran has a mean rush hour starting at seven AM and lasting until 8PM in its evening version. Solution? Motorcycle taxis! They cut through the traffic and any spare nerves you might have left.People and CultureMore than sixty percent of Tehranis were born outside of the city, making it as ethnically and linguistically diverse as the country itself. Tehran is the most secular and liberal city in Iran and as such it attracts students from all over the country.Things to do, RecommendationsTake the metro to the Tehran Bazaar at the stop "Panzda Gordad". There you can find anything and everything -- shoes, clothes, food, gold, machines and more. Just for the sight of it alone you should take a trip there.If you like being outside, go to Darband and drink tea in a traditional setting. Tehranis love a good picnic and there are plenty of parks to enjoy. Try Mellat park on a friday (fridays are public holidays), or maybe Park Daneshjou, Saaii or Jamshidieh.Remember to go upstairs and have a look around, always always always! The Azadi Tower should fit the bill; it was constructed to commemorate the 2500th anniversary of the Persian Empire.Tehran is also full of museums such as:the Contemporary Art Museumthe Abghine Musuem (glass works)the 19th century Golestan Royal Palace museumthe museum of carpets (!!!)Reza Abbasi Museum of extraordinary miniaturesand most stunning of all,the Crown Jewels Museum which holds the largest pink diamond in the world and many other jaw-dropping jewels.Text by Steve Smith.
