Topic: | Painters - Iran - Khosrow Hassanzadeh |
Hassanzadeh works primarily with painting, silkscreen and mixed media, often layering contemporary and historical images with his own texts – philosophical musings, love poems or political statements.
Treating subjects as diverse as the Iran-Iraq war, murdered prostitutes, Iranian wrestlers, and the War on Terror, Hassanzadeh’s work offers a visual commentary, at once personal and critical, on Iranian society.
Each series of art works is prefaced by an essay by a leading scholar or critic contextualizing Hassanzadeh’s work in terms of the global art scene.
