From “war, war, until victory” project collection, February 2012, Homa art gallery, Tehran Assemblage; small toys, Revell’s kits, colored by Oil-based colors, 16x24x12cm art work photography by: @mahmoudmahroumi ___________________________ My childhood and adolescence was coincided with Iran-Iraq war, one of the tragedies of human history in twentieth century, a war that was supposed to break the back of Iran in three days; but taking too long, at least it could steal my childhood from me earlier than I deserved. Successively, awful sound of bombs, to repeat and repeat this slogan… War, war until… victory! war continued and all the time we expected uncertain accidents, with this slogan which we used to repeat it every morning at school, the ruins was ours with endless sequence that we were involved. The victory was ours on Tv, but when we were faced with the exact appearance of this victory, the crowd carrying a coffin, a photo of a martyr on his cemetery and the mourning banners on city walls, we surrendered to another kind of truth, we couldn’t see the victory, because the victory means the end but there was no end. The war was continued, every time that the victory was repeated. The unfilled gap between exaggerating the sweet sense of victory and the bitter reflections of war within the life, made a strange relationship in my mind, which I have established this series of my drawing_installations on this issue, sometimes with direct references to documentary indications and sometimes with expressive stating in a surrealistic structure.

Work from my files! Untitled 2019 Two sided print, letterpress and screen print 11”x15” Edition of 8 Available for sale . I come from the homeland of dolls from beneath the shades of paper-trees in the garden of a picture book from the dry seasons of impotent experiences in friendship and love in the soil-covered alleys of innocence from the years of growing pale alphabet letters behind the desks of the tuberculous school from the minute that children could write "stone" on the blackboard and the frenzied starlings would fly away from the ancient tree. I come from the midst of carnivorous plant roots and my brain is still overflowed by a butterfly's terrifying shriek crucified with pins onto a notebook. When my trust was suspended from the fragile thread of justice and in the whole city they were chopping up my heart's lanterns when they would blindfold me with the dark handkerchief of Law and from my anxios temples of desire fountains of blood would squirt out when my life had become nothing nothing but the tic-tac of a clock, I discovered I must must must love, insanely. One window will suffice me one window to the moment of awareness observance and silence. now, the walnut sapling has grown so tall that it can interpret the wall by its youthful leaves. Ask the mirror the redeemer's name. Isn't the shivering earth beneath your feet lonelier than you? the prophets brought the mission of destruction to our century aren't these consecutive explosions and poisonous clouds the reverberation of the sacred verses? You, comrad, brother, confidant, when your reach the moon write the history of flower massacres. #froughfarokhzad #فروغ_فرخزاد #فروغ #printmaking #sanazhaghani #artshop #artforsale #printinmay #printinmay2020 #printmakersofinstagram #printmakers #letterpress #letterpressprinting #screenprinting #screenprint #screenprintart #screenprintartist #iraniancontemporaryart #iraniancontemporaryartist #هنرمعاصرایران #هنرایران #هنرمند #هنر (at Athens, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_tXVcpnl6R/?igshid=3wqonpsc6frj

The 8th official #review of "Soundtrack To The Blind Owl" album published on German 'African Paper' webzine! #soundtracktotheblindowl is an imaginary soundtrack produced by #XERXESTHEDARK for the most famous Iranian/ Persian Language novella in history: The Blind Owl by #SadeghHedayat which was translated to 72 different languages and always faced various censorships during the past 95 years due to it's dark and macabre story. Many believed that #DavidLynch's masterpiece "#LostHighway" heavily inspired by Blind Owl's #surrealism and mysterious characters. Surely, the album is not an easy listening sonic experience, it's bleakly heavy and disturbing for most people but those who are familiar with #experimental #noise / #industrial / #dronemetal/ #ambientblack genres certainly enjoy this horrible abyss and will float in between #nothingness and deeply rich frequecies that can help you contemplate and even meditate! Back to the review, it's the 2nd #German review written for this album. You can find a Google translated edition if you swipe left! And you can read the full article here: http://africanpaper.com/2021/10/09/xerxes-the-dark-soundtrack-to-the-blind-owl/ Special thanks to @african_paper and other webzines that supported this artistic-cultural effort that bridges between modern #Iranian #literature and Iranian #contemporary experimental music . Although I produced this album all by myself from A to Z , from composing, recording, mixing, mastering and producing to artwork designing and publishing, I tried my best to make a perfect tribute to Hedayat with my low budget and full heart; but receiving various positive reviews from Netherlands, Germany, Egypt and USA show that it's a successful release out side of Xerxes The Dark's musical realms. Don't hesitate and grab the album, October is the perfect time for listening to STTBL album: www.xerxesthedark.bandcamp.com #africanpaper #moregodimmer #morego_dimmer #zālrecords #blindowl #novella #DIMSTUDIOTEHRAN #press #darkart #IranianNoise #iraniandarkambient #iraniancontemporaryart #iraniancontemporaryartist https://www.instagram.com/p/CU0BdRsIhBy/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hyperallergic: Tehran Gallerists Charged with Trying to Overthrow Iranian Government
Mohsen Jamalinik’s Exhibition “Noushafarin & lion’s tail” #aungallery #mohsenjamalinik #aungallery #painting #solo #exhibition #art #gallery #artwork #contemporary #contemporaryart #artist #iran #tehran #iraniancontemporaryart #contemporaryart #tehranart #iranart #artistic  #گالری #هنر #هنرمند #نقاشی #معاصر
A post shared by AunGallery (@aungallery) on Feb 12, 2016 at 6:51am PST
New charges have been leveled against the Iranian-American couple Karan Vafadari and Afarin Nayssari who run Tehran’s Aun Gallery, including attempting to overthrow the Iranian government. The couple has been incarcerated at Tehran’s notorious Evin Prison since being arrested on July 20 of last year, and has been denied access to legal counsel, interrogated extensively, and frequently placed in solitary confinement over a series of charges that human rights organizations have denounced as baseless.
According to Kateh Vafadari, Karan’s sister, a number of charges against the couple that had previously been dropped were recently reinstated and added to by Judge Abolqasem Salavati during a hearing at which Vafadari and Nayssari were not allowed to have their lawyer present. Salavati — whom the Center for Human Rights in Iran describes as “a notoriously hardline judge routinely picked for dual national cases and other politicized cases in which the [Revolutionary Guards Intelligence Organization] and the Judiciary are seeking an unquestioning and harsh ruling” — reinstated earlier charges including espionage, associating with foreign diplomats, and having alcoholic beverages in their home. He also added the more serious charges of “attempting to overthrow the Islamic Republic of Iran,” “recruiting and signing up spies through foreign embassies,” and “assembly and collusion against national security,” according to Kateh Vafadari. The charges carry a potential penalty of up to 21 years in prison, in addition to fines and the confiscation of their property.

“Karan Vafadari and Afarin Niasari are among the most refined, the most exquisite, the most dignified people I have met during the five years I spent as Italy’s ambassador to Tehran,” Roberto Toscano, the Italian ambassador to Iran from 2003 to 2008, wrote in an open letter calling for the couple’s release. “Their detention is not only despicable because of its blatant injustice, but also because it will work as a further obstacle to the task of integrating Iran in the international community through a policy of dignity and proud independence, and at the same time dialogue and mutual respect.”
News of the couple’s arrest last summer was initially kept quiet as their relatives attempted to negotiate their release, but when talks with authorities broke down in December, the family went public. Some observers see their imprisonment as an attack on Iran’s Zoroastrian community, of which Vafadari is a member (and therefore not subject to the Islamic laws regarding alcohol consumption and mixed gatherings). Others, including Toscano, believe it may be an attempt to repress contemporary art and freedom of expression.
Aun Gallery’s doors have been shut since last summer when, members of the Revolutionary Guards “tore down and destroyed some art pieces, and took some others away with them,” according to Kateh Vafadari. The gallery launched in September 2009 with an exhibition of caligraphic tar paintings by the Iranian artist Einoddin Sadeghzadeh. Since then it had hosted more than 140 exhibitions, with Niasari managing day-to-day operations.
