Aaran Art Gallery Oct 2014 Leila Ghandchi To The Bone 02
Tehran

پیشروی تا مغز استخوان                                    

لیلا قندچی 

افتتاحیه  11 مهرماه 1393

اختتامیه 22 مهرماه

لیلا قندچی برای دست یافتن به شادیهای کوچک هر آن میتواند زین براسب  شاخدار افسانه ای گذاشته وبه مصاف سلطه جویان برود. گنبدهای باشکوه و چشم اندازهای فوق العاده زمین بازی این هنرمند هستند. جائی که مردم واقعی دررویاروئی با رفتارهای بازدارنده قرار دارند. بهره گیری از ترکیب مواد در این مجموعه به قصد بازنمائی ناخودآگاه هنرمند صورت گرفته است. گازهای استریل زخمها را می پوشاند، شبکه های توری عامل بازدارنده و پرها بال پرواز را می نمایانند.

نقش فرمهای سه بعدی اوریگامی ژاپنی، به دو بعد تقلیل میابند تا نقاشیها را به دنیای سه بعدی منتقل کنند. ظرافتهای تودرتو این فرمها نشانی از پیچیدگی شخصیتهای جامعه هستند. به کارگیری نئون در پشت نقاشیها شاید تاکیدی بر باورهای کهن ایرانیان بر توانائی نور و امید در مبارزه با سیاهی باشد.

سیالیت چشم اندازها و ظرافت خطوط و شفافیت پیکرها، همه بازتابی از تعادل ظریفی هستند که هنرمند پدید آورده. دنیائی از آن خود هنرمند، که در آن موجودات نوحیاتین نه قربانی هستند و نه قهرمان. واین خود شاید صدای نسل جوان زنان هنرمند ایرانی باشد که فردیت خود را به آسانی تسلیم نمی کنند و درجایگاه قربانی قرار نمی گیرند.

To The Bone 

Solo painting exhibition of Leila Ghandchi

Opening at Aaran Gallery on 3rd October 2014

Leila Ghandchi is not a feminist activist, however she is ready to saddle up her Unicorn and confront the dominating powers in quest for a sliver of joy. This is the buzz of a young confident generation of female Iranian artists who will not easily surrender their individuality and are not ready to be the sacrificial lamb. 

The Majestic domes and fabulous landscapes are the playgrounds for the artist, where real populace are in daily combat with the restraining antiquated attitudes . The application of mixed media in this series are meant to represent her subconscious; sterile gauze covers wounds, mesh is restrictive, feathers are wings to fly with. 

The function of three dimensional Origami forms that are flattened, carry the paintings to a three dimensional level, and the intricacy of these tangled shapes are indicative of the complexity of the characters of the society. The usage of neon lights, hidden in the back of some of the paintings, are probably reaffirmation of the ancient Persian belief in the power of light and hope.

The fluidity of the landscapes, the delicate lines and almost transparent figures, are all reflective of the delicate balance that the artist successfully creates. A world of her own, where the amphibious creatures are neither heroes nor victims. And perhaps this is another declaration of independence of the valiant Iranian females.

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.
