This book beautifully demonstrates this notion with examples dating from the 1970s to the present-a time of turmoil and political upheaval. Featuring a dizzying variety of works-from paintings and photography to political cartoons and posters-this volume shows how contemporary artists appropriate and recontextualize myth and history to tell powerful new stories about life in Iran. This book also explores how pre-Modern artists first began to manipulate time by visually shifting the past into the present as demonstrated by Persian miniature painting, in particular illustrated versions of the Shahnama, or Book of Kings, the Iranian national epic. Statements from prominent contemporary artists consider the creative means by which they evoke the past to address present-day social and political concerns. Designed to promote fluid movement between historical and modern, this wideranging book offers a unique and important exploration of a country with a rich and complicated heritage.00Exhibition: Los Angeles County Museum of Art, USA (06.05. - 09.09.2018). 650 0 $a Art and history $z Iran $x History $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art and history $z Iran $x History $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art, Iranian $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art, Iranian $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 7 $a ART / Middle Eastern. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a ART / Collections, Catalogs, Exhibitions / Group Shows. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a ART / History / Contemporary (1945-). $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Art and history. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815396 650 7 $a Art, Iranian. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00816406 651 7 $a Iran. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204889 648 7 $a 1900-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01424028 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Canby, Sheila R., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Dayani, Sheida, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Keshmirshekan, Hamid, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Khafipour, Hani, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Mahlouji, Vali, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Rahimi-Golkhandan, Shabnam, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Shafiei, Shadi, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Williams, Sandra $c (Curator), $e contributor. 710 2 $a Los Angeles County Museum of Art, $e host institution. $e host institution. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214015319.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3178B3CA840A11E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
