Shirin Art Gallery Nov 2013 Farshid Larimian 03
Tehran

„Farshido Larimian’s manner to work has a lot to do with seeing, watching, perceiving, finding and feeling. He goes to flea markets and discovers and finds things that human beings gave away, that got lost, that probably were important to somebody, that contain stories, time and places. Farshido locates these old objects in his new large-format drawings and installations. He charges them with new meanings and contemporary questions.
 Playfully he slips for instance old mirrors into the hand of his very delicate drawned portraits of women or he pieces cloth, wallpapers and dolls together to new installations, that on the one hand can irritate and on the other hand can tempt.
He shows the reverse side of old yellowed cardboards by directing the attention to that that blocked our gaze for decades. The other side, in a subtle and aesthetic way Farshido is capable of drawing a bow between the past and the present.“
 says Veronika Dirnhofer

 

 

 

-- Artist Statement

„ I believe in the saying, that the best ideas will come on the right time, with the right material and match up in a perfect outcome. I do not believe in tying oneself as an artist to one specific art style or material. For me, concept and material follow inspiration and idea, not the other way around.

To come to this ‘perfect outcome’, I use fine techniques and patience. Patience for finding the right materials and collecting objects that are special or useful with wondering around flea markets and gathering knick-knacks of the past to make a use of them later on. However, up until there is no specific idea in mind I put them aside. Then…I opt for a collage, Monochrome drawing, Classical oil painting or whatever my favorite medium that suits the idea best.
An artist, through his creative process, matches and brings together seemingly unrelated things and when he is done, the final product is a harmonious piece that seems as if the materials always belonged together(a.i.th.a.b.t.)

My inspiration comes from daily life and all the surprises that it brings along. On a personal note, I also like surprises…that’s why I like to keep surprising myself and others with my artworks.“

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.
