Reza Lavassani Untitled from the Water, Wine, Earth and Fire series, 2008

 

Iranian artists have come together to put on an exhibition in support of the Omid Foundations.And you are invited to join them at a private viewing in Tehran on 2nd February, 2012.

However, if you do not live in Iran, you can still show your support by purchasing the donated works of art online.

The exhibition is a collaboration between the Assar and Aaran Galleries in Tehran and a group of prominent Iranian artists in order to help raise funds for the Omid Foundations. Iranian artists (living both inside and outside Iran) have always been one of the Omid Foundation’s strongest supporters. Previously the artists have conducted art workshops at the center which have proven to be a very effective tool in allowing the young women to find new ways of expressing themselves. However, now we are fortunate that these artists are actually donating some of their work for us to sell, so please support them and the Omid Foundations by looking through the catalogue and purchasing your favourite piece of art.

Participating artists are:

Alireza Adambakan, Iman Afsarian, Afsoon, Shahryar Ahmadi, Samira Alikhanzadeh, Maryam Amini, Amir Moussavi, Pooya Arianpour, Reza Azimian, Shahpari Behzadi, Ali Chitsaz, Mostafa Darebaghi, Bita Fayazi, Siamak Filizadeh, Shadi Ghadirian, Ebtahaj Ghanadzadeh, Mohammad Ghazali, Kourosh Ghazimorad, Hengameh Golestan, Kaveh Golestan, Barbad Golshiri, Arash Hanaee, Ghazal Khatibi, Abbas Kiarostami, Abbas Kowsari, Farsad Labbauf, Behdad Lahooti, Farideh Lashai, Reza Lavasani, Roxana Manouchehri, Amin Maysami, Ahmad Morshedlou, Amir Moussavi, Kaveh Najmabadi, Bijan Rafati, Azadeh Razaghdoust, Babak Roshaninejad, Mehran Saber, Mohsen Sadeghian, Behrang Samadzadegan, Golnar Tabibzadeh, Jinoos Taghizadeh, Mojtaba Tajik, Shideh Tami, Parviz Tanavoli, Newsha Tavakolian, Sadegh Tirafkan, and Morteza Zahedi.
