Book Launch

Dismantling - Behzad Farazollahi

Kunstnernes Hus

Nov. 22nd, 6pm 2018

Book launch and artist talk

Dismantling marks Behzad Farazollahi’s first artist monograph and is comprised of 69 images from Afghanistan, Iran, Mexico, Spain, Portugal, England, Norway, The Czech Republic, Denmark and Italy. The material spans the last twenty years of Farazollahi’s artistic oeuvre.

Drawing inspiration from the rhythms of Haiku, Farazollahi cinematically sequences images onto paper with the primary objective of emphasising the element of delicate movement in the photographic capture. The result is a unique trajectory in the understanding of the still image, through the use of triptychs and repetition.

There will be an artist talk with Farazollahi and artist/publisher Sveinn Fannar Jóhannsson from 6:15 pm
