Artwork Description

The work of Iranian painter Afshin Pirhashemi examines the complexities of life in modern day Iran. Pirhashemi is fascinated by the role of women in contemporary Iranian society, and their relationships with the world around them. On sparse or empty backgrounds, his largely monochromatic, photo-realistic depictions nod to gothic fantasy in an exploration of issues of social and political identity.
 
Born in 1974 in Urmia, Afshin Pirhashemi now lives and works in Tehran. His works are housed in public and private collections throughout the Middle East and Europe and he is the recipient of awards from the 2003 Tehran 6th International Art Biennial, and the 2004 Beijing Art Biennial Award. Solo exhibitions include Ayyam Gallery, Dubai (2013); Homa Art Gallery, Tehran (2009); Seyhoun Art Gallery, Tehran (2005); and Barg Gallery, Tehran (2005). Group exhibitions include In & Out, Milan (2009); Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art, Tehran (2006); Museum of Contemporary Art, Tehran (2004, 2003).
