سازگاری، تغییر ماهیت و دگرشدگی موضوع کلی نمایش غرب حقیقی- نوشته سام

شپارد – بهانه ی خوبی است برای درگیری با موضوع مصرف ؛ اینکه چگونه انسان

در برابر مفهوم داشتن تغییر فطرت می دهد ، موضوع بسیاری از آثار هنری

بوده است . سعی کرده ام تا اندازه ای که بشود درباره ی رابطه ی فرد با شی

حرف بزنم و اینکه آدمی بدون رابطه با دیگری ، بیشتر ماهیتی جانوری دارد .

به قول بودریار :

" این جانوران یا گیاهانی که انسان تولید کرده و به نوبه خود در محاصره

آنها قرار گرفته ، باید هرچه سریعتر به همان صورتی که آن ها را می بینیم

و با آن ها زندگی می کنیم ، توصیف شوند ، و با وجود شکوه و جلال و نیز

کثرت و فراوانی شان ، هرگز نباید فراموش کنیم که آن ها حاصل یک فعالیت

بشری و تابع قانون ارزش مبادله ، و نه

قوانین اکولوژیک طبیعی هستند . "

نسرین برکت

I've borrowed the title of my series from True West-a play by Sam

Shepard-which is about human transformation in his environment.  As

Jean Baudrillard has mentioned in The Consumer Society: “ Just as the

wolf-child became a wolf by living among wolves, so we too are slowly

becoming functional. We live by object time: by this I mean that we

live at the pace of objects, live to the rhythm of their ceaseless

succession. Today, it is we who watch them as they are born, grow to

maturity and die, whereas in all previous civilizations it was

timeless objects, instruments or monuments which outlived the

generations of human beings.” Maybe this is why I prefer to be in a

kind of

human-animal situation to know me deeper.

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.
