Iranian artist Mehdi Nabavi has had recent solo exhibitions in the Mah Art Gallery and Azad Art Gallery of Tehran and has been featured in collective exhibitions at the Azad Art Gallery and the 4th Biennale of Contemporary Painting in Iran in 1997.
Nabavi’s large standing missile sculptures, ‘Exquisite Pits’, were the subject of his most recent solo exhibition. Each intricately mosaiced with mirrors and colored glass panels, these faceted projectiles reflect upon the walls a plethora of colours, causing the viewer to balance the delicately dancing reflections with the cruel intention of the object.
