Shirin Art Gallery May 2016 Masoud Akhavanjam Path Of Life 02
Tehran

در دوران دبیرستان در آلمان در یک برنامه تابستانی سرامیک و مجسمه شرکت کردم. دانش آموزان برتر تشویق شدند تا یک دست کامل مهره هایی شطرنج را طراحی کنند و بسازند. من انقدر مجذوب این کار شدم که هرچه داشتم صرف ساختن چندین و چند مهره کردم. خوشبختانه شطرنج را فروختم و این اولین آشنایی من با مجسمه‌سازی بود. بعد از فاغ التحصیلی از دانشگاه مدیر بخش طراحی یک شرکت معتبر شدم و در طول زمان کوتاهی به خاطر طرح های متفاوتم شهرتی کسب کردم. در طول زمان علاقه من به هنر افزایش پیدا کرد. هرچه بیشتر از طریق نظاره و جمع کردن آثار هنری وارد جهان هنرمی‌شدم، میل به آفرینش هنر در خود من بیشترمی‌شد. در طول زندگی‌ام به هنر اکسپرسیونیسم انتزاعی و کارهای فرانز کلاین و جکسون پولاک علاقه داشتم. روابط میان خط و فضا و نوع بیان در کار آنها، همچنین انتزاع به مفهوم خاص این دو هنرمند، به من خواستِ تجسم بخشیدن به حرکتی در فضا را که همواره تسجم می‌کردم بخشید. از میان هنرمندان ایرانی کوروش شیشه گران بیشترین تاثیر را در من داشته و مسحور پرتره‌های انتزاعی‌اش بوده و هستم. لایه‌های فی البداهه و خط های حلزونی که بدن انسان را فرم می دهد. با توجه به سمتِ اداری که در طراحی محصول داشتم و دانشم از قالب گیری و کار با صفحات فلزی بخصوص استیل و برنز، همیشه درک خوبی از کار با فلز داشتم و به آن علاق همند بودم. این درک و علاقه به همراه اراده‌ی قوی من برای ساختِ طرح‌هایم باعث شد در سال ۱۳۹۰ در کارگاه خودم اولین مجسمه برنز خود را خلق کنم.

During my high school years in Germany, I once took part in a summer programme where we made ceramic ‘S’ sculptures. Students with clever creations were encouraged to create more figures and complete a chess set. I was so fascinated by the process that I spent all my money on making hundreds of figures–fortunately I was able to sell the resulting chess set. This was my first acquaintance with sculpting. After graduating from university and starting work as the manager of a design department at a manufacturing company, I gradually gained a reputation for my eccentric product designs. Over time, my interest in the arts grew. The more I got involved in the art world–observing, studying and collecting–the more inspired I became the more I felt the urge to create my own art. I had always found the work of abstract expressionists such as Jackson Pollock and Franz Kline very inspiring. The relationship between line, space and expression in their works, as well as the abstraction they employed, made me want to materialize the spatial movement I had always visualized. Among Iranian artists, Kourosh Shishehgaran was most influential. I was, and still am, fascinated by his abstract ‘portraits’: layers of spontaneously applied, spiraling lines that mostly appear to outline a human form. Given my executive position in product design, as well as my engagement in sheet metal processing and casting, I had both a great understanding of and an appreciation for working with metals, especially stainless steel and bronze. This combined with my strong will to craft my own designs led me, in 2011, to create my first sculpture, a bronze, in my own workshop.

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.
