گالری اثر با افتخار میزبان نمایشگاه پرده، دربرگیرنده‌ی جدیدترین آثار رضا لواسانی است.
لواسانی که یکی از شناخته‌شده‌ترین هنرمندان تجسمی ایران است، در مجموعه‌ی اخیر خود هفت طراحی بزرگ با تکنیک سوراخ‌زنی و یک مجسمه‌ی پاپیه ماشه را به نمایش گذاشته است.
آثار لواسانی در جریان حرفه‌ی هنری‌اش همواره متکی بر ایجاد پیوندهایی میان گذشته و حال بوده‌اند. نقش‌مایه‌های آثار او در سه دهه‌ی گذشته همواره مجالی برای برقراری ارتباط فراهم آورده‌اند. لواسانی با مجموعه‌ی پرده بار دیگر بر مهارت استادانه‌اش صحه می‌گذارد و آثاری ارائه می‌دهد که نمایانگر شاعرانگی منحصربه‌فرد او، و در حکم نامه‌ای از سوی او به جهانیان هستند.
رویکرد لواسانی به دیزاین به عنوان نوعی تفکر سبب شده است که نقاشی، طراحی و مجسمهسازی را زیرمجموعه‌ی تفکر طراحی محسوب کند و به تبع آن، خود را در وهله‌ی نخست دیزاینر یا طراحی بی انگارد که تصورات زیبایی‌شناسانه‌اش هر از گاهی صورت دوبعدی یا سه‌بعدی به خود می‌گیرند.
لواسانی که شیفته‌ی زبان فارسی و به ویژه غزل در شعر فارسی است، زبان شهری شاعرانه‌ای می‌سازد که گذشته‌ی فرهنگی‌اش را به اکنون پیوند می‌دهد. او درون‌مایه‌های شاخص و نمادین موجود در پیشینه‌ی هنر دیداری ایرانی/اسلامی و غنایی را بازآفرینی می‌کند، با بینش بصری و شناختی خود آن‌ها را پرداخت کرده و سامان می‌بخشد، به شیوه‌ای منحصربه‌فرد مینیمالیزه می‌کند، و بدین ترتیب مخلوق خود را جان می بخشد. لواسانی در طول سه سال کار بر روی این طرح‌ها هر کدام را به شکل ویژه ای خلق کرده است؛ از نشان زینتی کوچکی گرفته که آذین‌بخش پایه‌ی صندلی‌ای از پاپیه ماشه است تا سنجاق سینه ای از جنس نقره، یا بخش کوچکی از یک اثر چهار متری گرفته تا طراحی یک دست سفید یا سیاه که با روش سوراخ‌زنی خلق شده و حاصل آن تصویری است توأمان دوبعدی و سه‌بعدی.
میان اجزاء گوناگون پرده، توازنی دیداری برقرار است. از نظر ساختاری نیز بیننده با جریانی پیوسته روبه‌رو می‌شود، گویی آثار او با هندسی‌ای درونی به یک‌دیگر پیوند خورده‌اند که مجال بروز آن‌ها را به صورت‌هایی گوناگون هم‌چون یک فرش، سازه‌ای معمارانه، یک مجسمه، حتی یک خوراک و اشیایی دیگر فراهم می‌آورد.
Assar Art Gallery proudly presents Curtain, the latest body of works by Reza Lavassani.
One of the most renowned visual artists of Iran, Lavassani composed Curtain as seven pinhole drawings and one large-scale papier-mache sculpture.
Throughout his artistic career and practice, Lavassani has focused on developing links between past and present. His motifs of the past three decades provide fodder for communication. With Curtain, Lavassani reinstates his master craftsmanship, presenting works that bear his unmistakable poetic signature, his letter to the world.
A believer in design as philosophy, Lavassani places drawing, painting and sculpting as subcategories to design thinking and thus considers himself principally as a designer whose aesthetic visualization takes two or three dimensional form now and again.
Fascinated with Persian language and ghazal in particular, Lavassani speaks an urban poetic language that connects his cultural past to the present. He re-creates the eloquent and emblematic motifs one can find in Persian/Islamic visual and lyrical history, processes and refines them through his ocular and cognitive perspective and minimalizes them in a unique way, giving birth to an artistic progeny. Three years in the making, each design is given a material form, whether a small ornamental decoration on the leg of a papier-mache chair, a silver broche, a small part of a 4-meter long artwork or a white pinhole drawing that is somewhere between three and two dimensional.
There is a visual harmony connecting the various elements in Curtain. In structure too, the viewer will find flow, as if Lavassani’s works are connected through an inner geometry, allowing them to appear in the form of a carpet, a piece of architecture, a sculpture, a dish and more.
Born in 1962 in Tehran, Iran where he currently lives and works, Reza Lavassani is the recipient of several awards including UNESCO’s Noma Concourse in 2007 and first prize at Tehran’s 4th Biennial of Sculpture and 6th Biennial of Illustration in 1994. Lavassani has held several solo exhibitions in Iran and been part of numerous national and international exhibitions and art fairs. His work has been featured in a number of publications inside and outside Iran in addition to being part of several important private collections

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.
