Tehran

نسیم داوری 

عجائب المخلوقات وغرائب الموجودات

افتتاحیه 14 شهریورماه 1393

نسیم داوری قواعد زیبائی شناسی ما را به چالش می کشد. او موجودات التقاطی مورد علاقه اش را به نمایش می کشد و حس شگفتی آوری از این موجودات مرموز را آشکار می سازد. برای بیننده، این آثار به غایت ناشناخته هستند، برای هنرمند بخشی از دایرة المعارف شخصی، کیهان شناسی و یا عجایب نامه اش هستند. فانتزیای پسا-اسطوره ای، وفور چشمگیر جزئیاتی که برهم زننده هستند، تصاویر پویا و درخشان و مجاورت های غیرممکن و خیال اندیشی ها، همه بخشی از ناخودآگاه هنرمند هستند. دنیائی که سازگاری با آن سخت است ولی بعد از گذشت اولین موجهای مواجهه، بیننده به ترجمان جدیدی دست میابد و عجایب و غرائب کمتر خارق العاده به نظر می آیند. 

از پی ابویحیا زکریای قزوینی، روشنفکر، جغرافیادان ، اخترشناس و نویسنده استثنائی قرن هفتم هجری  ، که کتاب محبوب "عجائب المخلوقات وغرائب الموجودات" را به نگارش درآورد، این هنرمند جوان موچودات گیج کننده ای که زاده ی تخیل اش هستند را به تصویر می کشد.

هر نقاشی اثری مستقل است ولی تمامی آثار با "نخ ها" و رنگ و ترکیب بندی ها به هم متصل هستند به گونه ی که بیننده میتواند در این دنیای عجیب، خرامان حرکت کند. شاید بهتر باشد که از توضیح این آثار خودداری کنیم و در اعجاب آنها غوطه ور شویم. وقتی از فضای این آثار دور شویم جهان دوباره امری واقعی و دنیوی خواهد بود. 

Nasim Davari

Marvels of Things Created and Miraculous Aspects of Things Existing 

Opening on 5th September 2014.

Nasim Davari defies our aesthetic conventions. She continues her interest in hybrid forms, and elicits a sense of wonder in her mysterious creations. For the viewer it is the ultimate unknown, for artist it is her Personal Encyclopedia, her cosmology, her Ajayeb Nameh. A meta mythical fantasia in an unconscious world, an extraordinary plenitude of disorienting detail. All these vivid images and impossible juxtapositions and reveries are part of her fantasia. A world hard to adjust to but once first shock waves are absorbed and the viewer finds a new interpretation, then the bizarreness no longer appears all that unusual. 

Following in footsteps of Abu Yahaya Zakariya Qazwini, the 13thcentury Persian intelligentsia; Geographer, Astronomer and extraordinary writer, who created the immensely popular “Marvels of Creatures and the Strange Things Existing”, our young artist pictures the perplexing creatures that in her case reside in her own subconscious.  

Each painting is an independent work but they are all linked with threads and colors and composition, allowing the viewer to glide in this incredible world. It’s best not to try and explain but to float in the magic that she creates. Stepping away from these paintings the world is once again factual and mundane.

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.
