The Nest Has Been Distroyed, Curated by Gaia Serena Simionati, focusing on the works of three prominent Middle eastern artists, will be on view at AZAD ART GALLERY in Teheran from April, 8th 2011 through April, 20th 2011.
The show will highlight the works of: Navid Azimi Sajadi from Iran, actually an Iranian immigrant in Rome. Italian origin Yousef Moscatello, now converted to Islam and living in the UAE. And finally the Turkish artist Baris Saribas.
Losses that life implies, from childhood to adult life and its unavoidable changements, as part of the growing process, will be on show. Not only from the artists’ personal point of view, who have left their country of origin or the place of birth to live like strangers in a new reality with all the difficulties that this choice can imply. But also losses in their artworks which deal with either the history of their countries’ splendid past, somehow nowdays completely faded or only a document on politics “fight” which refuse to focus on the beauty of life.
