Seyhoun Art Gallery Jan 2018 Madjid Asgari Art 03
Tehran

آیا هنر را می‌.توان با استادان بزرگ تعریف کرد؟ آیا نام و آوازه‌.ی همه‌.ی آن‌.هایی که کتب تاریخ هنر را پر کرده‌.اند به واقع  تصور ما از آن‌.چه "هنر" می‌.خوانیم را ساخته‌.اند؟ و اما آیا ما، یک‌. به یک، تمامی این چهره‌.ها را که بر آثار مجید عسگری نقش بسته‌.اند، به واسطه‌.ی دنیایی که پیش رو‌.ی‌.مان باز کرده‌.اند ستایش نمی‌.کنیم؟

با این‌.حال آن‌.چه مجید عسگری، در نمایشگاه جدیدش کرده، صرفاً بازنمایی چهره‌.های تعدادی از بزرگان تاریخ هنر نیست، آن‌.چه او می‌.کند در عین‌.حال حاصل یک ساخت و ساز پرزحمت و پرمرارت است که با دقت و جزئی‌.نگری فراوان ممکن می‌.شود. پس آن‌.چه او می‌.کند، تلویحاً یادآوری تمامی مسیر صعب و دشواری است که با کاری پرمرارت و دشوار حاصل می‌.شود و ما "هنر" می‌.نامیم. نمایشگاه "هنر" کوششی است که به ما یادآوری می‌.کند تمامی این نام‌.ها و چهره‌.ها با چه مرارتی اوراق تاریخ هنر را پر کرده‌.اند و با چه جزئی‌.نگری تکه‌.تکه‌.های تاریخ هنر را کنار هم گذاشته‌.اند.

Is it possible to define art through the great masters? Have the names, reputations and the fame of those, who have filled the books on the history of art, in fact formed our conception of what we call art? And yet, don’t we all appreciate those figures, illustrated on Majid Asgari’s art works, one by one and via the world they have opened up in front of our eyes?

Nonetheless, what Majid Asgari has done in his new exhibition is not merely reflecting the faces of some of the great masters of the art history. What he does, at the very same time, is the result of the laborious and painstaking construction, which is only possible through a lot of precision and attention to the details. Thus, what he does, is implicitly a reminder of all the grave and difficult path, achieved through an agonizing and hard work, that we name art.

The exhibition “Art” is an attempt to remind us of all those names and faces and how arduously they have filled the pages of the history of art and how meticulously and detailed-orientedly they have put the pieces of the art history back together.

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.
