Seyhoun Art Gallery May 2015 Hossein Edalatkhah Past And Present Vol 2 03
Tehran

آثار عدالتخواه بازتاب‏دهنده میراث فرهنگی و ریشه ‏های محیطی و بومی او توأم با تفسیری نو و جدید از زبان شعری ادبیات و مینیاتورهای ایرانی است.

در آثار او، نمادهای سنتی ایرانی، طرح‏های گل تکراری یادگار دوران صفوی، تصاویر یا نمادهای رنگارنگ و شمایلها و پیکره‏های تک رنگش چنان با هم ترکیب می‏شوند و درهم می‏آمیزند که گویی اثر او یا هنوز پایان نیافته یا با گذشت زمان به تدریج محو شده است. آثار او همچون استعاره‏ای پیوند‏ دهنده در شعر عمل می‏کنند و در واقع این آثار به دلیل کاربرد حساب‏شده نمادها و تصاویر برای معناسازی شاعرانه هستند.

جنسیت پیکره‏های آثارش به درستی مشخص نیست. خطوط سیاه‏رنگی که تنها با گچ سیاه ترسیم شده‏اند به پیکره‏هایش جلوه‏ای مردانه می‏بخشند حال آنکه موی بلندی که بر شانه‏های این پیکره‏ها می‏لغزد به آنها جلوه‏ای زنانه، ظرافت و شکنندگی‏ای خاص و حجبی مرموز می‏بخشد. این پیکره‏ها دهان و چشم ندارند، به گونه‏ای ترسیم می‏شوند که نیم‏رخشان متفکر و رویاگونه به نظر می‏رسد، گویی نمی‏خواهند با بیننده رو در رو قرار بگیرند. در آثار کوچکتر دیگرش، این پیکره‏ها به مجسمه‏های نیم‏تنه‏ای که لایه‏های رنگارنگی سرهاشان را پوشانده و رو در روی بیننده دارند، تقلیل می‏یابند گویی تفکرات یا رویاهاشان که در حال تراوش از مغزهاشان بوده به حلقه‏های زیبای گل‏هایی خاموش بدل شده‏اند.

Edalatkhah’s works reflect the cultural heritage and the roots of his background alongside with a modern interpretation of the poetical language of Persian literature and miniatures.

In his work traditional Persian symbols, the combination of recurrent Safavid floral designs, his own very colorful imagery or symbols and a monochrome figure melt into each other in a strange way, as if the painting was not quite finished or had faded with time. Most probably in reference to a thousand year old heritage. The work functions like a binding metaphor in poetry, and is indeed very poetic in terms of its method of meaning-construction through calculated use of symbolism and imagery.

The gender of the figure in his paintings is not quite clear. Merely outlined in black chalk the figure seems to be a male body but long hair falls on the shoulders giving it a feminine touch, a certain fragility, a hint of shyness. The figure has no eyes and no mouth, it mainly stands side-ways as if it wanted to avoid facing the spectator, lost in thoughts or dreams. In other smaller works the figure is reduced to the bust facing the spectator and colorful interlacing covers the head, as if the thoughts or dreams, bursting out of the brain, had muted in lovely flowers strings.

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.
