CONTEMPORARY IRANIAN PAINTINGS

An important and unique introduction to the Iranian contemporary art scene, the exhibition presents a selection of artists revisiting the traditional and cultural identity of Iran and translating it into modern works of art with distinctly individual characteristics.
