Khosrow Hassanzadeh’s rich, colorful, and uncompromising
oeuvre
has made him one of Iran’s leading contemporary artists. Working primarily with photography, collage, painting, and mixed media, he unflinchingly examines harsh political realities by treating subjects such as the Iran-Iraq war, murdered prostitutes, and women in
chadors.
Includes essays by leading scholars and critics contextualizing his work. Published in association with KIT Tropenmuseum.
Khosrow Hassanzadeh
has had solo shows in Amsterdam, Beirut, Dubai, London, Phnom Penh, and Tehran.
