Statement:
Art transcends language and cultural barriers; it has the power to connect people by revealing their similarities and shared humanity, thereby transforming prejudice into understanding. We have evidence going as far back as 80,000 years or more, pointing to its universality. An impression of a
diffused red palm print or a brown wild pig on a cave wall hints not only at the universality of art’s power to connect people to their contemporaries but also to connect them by bridging time and space. Who among us can help but feel a kinship to the Upper Paleolithic man who left these marks?
Persia (Iran) is an extraordinary land with a deep cultural history that evokes different feelings in different people. Those who focus on its history and art, and those who might only associate Iran with its none-too-appealing political image gleaned from the media or the extreme vicissitude of trying to
revolt against an oppressive regime.
This exhibition celebrates the cultural side of Iran and focuses on its distinctive art and imagery from the past and present. It intends to showcase a compelling sampling of the scope and range of Persian art and artists that helps transcend the constraints of ideological and cultural borders.
More than 100 works will be on display, ranging from antique art, artifacts, textiles, ceramic, and photographs, to works by contemporary Iranian artists living in the US and Iran.
