Aaran Art Gallery Sep 2015 Naghmeh Ghassemlou Me And My Dad 03
Tehran

نمایشگاه انفرادی عکس 

نغمه قاسملو

عنوان نمایشگاه : منو بابام 

افتتاحیه 13 شهریورماه ادامه نمایشگاه تا 30 شهریور

گالری آران مجموعه جدید آثار نغمه قاسملو را به تماشا می گذارد. این مجموعه حول محور زمان و چگونگی شکل گیری هویت، پدیده آمده. مجموعه عکسهای قبلی هنرمند در موزه لکما در لس آنجلس و موزه هنرهای تجسمی تهران، نگهداری میشوند و در مجموعه جدید عکسهای پدر ایشان، آقای رضا قاسملو که در دهه های 30 الی 50 در تهران مالک و گرداننده "فتو آسیا" بودند، با عکسهای هنرمند پیوند می خورند تا تصویری تازه ظاهر شود

هنرمند می نویسد: اولین سری از مجموعه "منو بابام" حاصل سالها بازی کردن و دیدن عکس های پدرم است و اندیشه ای که چگونه می توانم راهی برای پیوند لحظات زندگی او با خودم پیدا کنم. همه چالش ذهنی من آن است تا با حفظ یکپارچگی عکس بتوانم دو عکس مجزا در دو زمان و مکان متفاوت را از نقطه ای به هم وصل کنم که کمترین حس جداشدگی به ببینده منتقل شود بدین منظور نقاط قطع و وصل بسیار اهمیت دارند یا به عبارتی اولویت اول این مجموعه به حساب می آیند

Solo exhibition of

Naghmeh Ghassemlou

Me and My Dad

Opening on 4th September- on view until 21.09.2015

Aaran Gallery is pleased to present latest works of Naghmeh Ghassemlou. The new series of works circles around time, and how the passage of time shapes our identity. In this highly personal series, Artist whose earlier series of works are part of permanent collection of  LACMA (Los Angeles County Museum) and TMOCA, (Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art), merges her own photographs with that of her father, Reza Ghassemlou, who owned and operated “Photo Asia Shop”, in Tehran between 1950s to 1970s.

She writes: The first image of the series “Me, And My Dad”, is the result of years of probing and playing with my father’s photographs, and the idea of finding a way to connect moments of his life with mine. The challenge was to maintain the entirety of image, by connecting two separate photographs taken at two different times and places, and to connect them in a way that the least amount of separation is evident to the viewer, in other words the points of excision and connection are of outmost importance and this was my main concern. Neither of images were meant to come together, but were chosen from archive to create a third image. Although the contents of the third image are taken from the two photographs but the result is neither the first nor the second photograph. The new image has its own meaning and identity and independently stands on its own merit.

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.
