Intersection for the Arts: Narrative of Tehran

Neda Razavipour still hi res

Local gallery space Intersection for the Arts is currently showing “One Day: A Collective Narrative of Tehran,” a set of images by eight artists living in the Iranian city along with SF-based artist Tareneh Hemami. I’m eager to see the work about a city I know about only through news mentions, and the daichtomy the exhibit hopes to create seems intriguging: “The city of Tehran itself embodies and reflects a unique combination of religion and laicism, tradition and modernism, poverty and wealth, high-tech and retro urbanism.” It will be showing until mid-January with the exception of December 20 through January 4 (expecting city flight, perhaps?).
