Persian Graffiti

Shokufeh Kavani, Marilyn Monroe, Picasso and Me, 2013, mixed media, 100x80cm

Exhibition Dates: 23 March - 3 April 2022

An exhibition of traditional Persian calligraphy and modern Iranian abstract painting by Shokufeh Kavani and Arash Nedaiee.

This exhibition is a combination of traditional Persian calligraphy and modern Iranian abstract painting by Shokufeh Kavani and Arash Nedaiee. Persian Graffiti is a manifestation of Persian art and culture throughout history - from Persia to Iran. Through the use of traditional Persian calligraphy created by Arash Nedaiee and award-winning Iranian artist Shokufeh Kavani, this exhibition showcases two different styles of Persian art. Their work defies the Persian art canon by showing both the differences and similarities in a divided society of modern Iran.
